Williams and his then-songwriting partner Guy Chambers co-wrote the song for Minogue after she approached Williams to write her some songs for her first album under Parlophone, Light Years. Feeling the chemistry between both himself and Minogue, he decided to turn the song into a duet, include the track on his album, and release it as a single. His rap verse on the song comparing himself to Sean Connery and including the line "Press be asking do I care for sodomy/I don't know/Yeah, probably"[3] was entirely removed for radio play and the version on Minogue's album.[4]
Minogue and Williams re-recorded "Kids" with an updated, funkier arrangement for Williams' compilation album, XXV, released on 9 September 2022.[5]
