Background

The previous single (My Man) was the group's debut record in 1977. It was a honorable hit single in the Benelux countries. The follow-up single was entitled "Dream, Dream". The music arrangements were inspired by the ABBA sound. The famous Swedish pop quartet indeed ispired Luv''s songwriters and producers (Hans van Hemert and Piet Souer). The girl trio expected to have another hit. However, the single flopped and the female formation seemed to be a One-hit wonder. The real breakthrough came in 1978 with the success of U.O.Me (Theme from Waldolala) and You're the Greatest Lover.
