"Thrill Has Gone" is the second single released from Scottish band Texas's first studio album, Southside (1989). The song peaked at number 60 on the UK Singles Chart and number 19 in New Zealand, becoming their last top-20 hit there until "Say What You Want (All Day, Every Day)" in 1998.
Jerry Smith, reviewer of British music newspaper Music Week, called this track a "memorable slice of smooth rock/pop... marked by another stunning vocal" equal to band's previous hit "I Don't Want a Lover" and expressed an assurance that it will "bring more success".[2]
