Mackay's remit for the project was to develop a new sound for Black which would keep her music in tune with the current pop market. He wanted to move away from her trademark power-ballad orchestrations and produce a soft rock record in the vein of "Step Inside Love" which he considered to be her finest work.[1]

The lead single "Baby We Can't Go Wrong" reached #36 on the UK Singles Chart. It was also used as the opening theme tune to season 7 of Black's BBC TV variety show Cilla.
