"Give Me Your Everything" is a song recorded by Romanian recording artist Alexandra Stan for her second studio album, Unlocked (2014). The single was made available for digital download on 20 August 2014 through Victor Entertainment. "Give Me Your Everything" was written by Stan, Serban Cazan, LeAnna James, Naz Tokio and Andrei Mihai, while production was solely handled by Cazan. A music video for the song was directed by Vlad Fenesan and debuted on the singer's YouTube channel, where it has amassed over two million views. The clip shows Stan chasing a masked man in a dark landscape. Upon its release, the video aroused controversy for a scene in which Stan is wearing a white robe with masonic symbols inscribed on its back. Particularly, Urban.ro named the clip "her most bizarre video ever".

The recording was met with good reviews. Some music critics praised the song's "Caribbean groove" and the singer's "hypnotic" and "crystalline" vocals, while others comparing "Give Me Your Everything" to the material featured on Rihanna's A Girl like Me (2006). The style of the song has been described as "urban" and "tribal". During an interview in Spain, Stan explained that "Give Me Your Everything" was written as a present for her Asian and Arabic fans, due to the song's more oriental style and spiritual meaning.

In May 2014, it was announced that Stan would tour in Japan during her Unlocked Tour (2014) for the first time in two years. During the tour, a new track called "Give Me Your Everything" was unveiled at the end of Stan's concert at Shibuya Womb in Tokyo on 18 July 2015, with her also confessing that it was scheduled to be released on 27 August 2014 as the fourth single from Unlocked. When asked about the track by her Japanese label Victor Entertainment, Stan felt that she had made a song with an oriental mood, weaving together an African and Asian feel with a Balkan sound". Particularly, during website Barks's review of her performance in Tokyo, they called the silver leotard she wore "bold", while also describing "Give Me Your Everything" as a song having a "violently dark melody".
