Recording

Recorded in October 1979 after the Bee Gees' 1979 Spirits Having Flown Tour, all of the songs were written that same year except "The Love Inside" which was written in 1978 during work on the album Spirits Having Flown. All songs features Gibb's falsetto voice, except "What Kind of Fool" where he used his natural voice. Barry said that they sent five songs he wrote with Robin. The end date of the Spirits Having Flown Tour is 6 October and at that time Robin left Miami to stay for a few months at his house in Long Island, New York. The next songs were written with Albhy Galuten instead of Robin. The songs on which Barry written with Galuten were dated after Robin left Miami. Galuten recalls Barry writing songs very fast in a week, and taking only a little longer to record the demos.. The demo version of "Never Give Up" remains unreleased.[2] "Carried Away" and "Secrets" were not used by Streisand but instead recorded by Elaine Page with only "Secrets" being issued on her 1981 self-titled album. Olivia Newton-John recorded and released "Carried Away" on her Physical album also in 1981.

Personnel
gollark: Can you objectively prove that they have some sort of moral worth, though?
gollark: I see. Again, I'd say they aren't a person/child/whatever (but are a human body) at the time.
gollark: But you were saying that people should *not* have sex if they don't want children. Which stops those children who would otherwise exist from existing.
gollark: Can you show this objectively without Christian theology or something?
gollark: So I'm obligated to bring all potential people into existence? AAAAAAAAAAAAAa also.
