Background

Summer's breakthrough had come in the form of the disco song "Love to Love You Baby" which in its entirety lasted almost seventeen minutes and took up the entire first side of the 1975 album of the same name. Due to its success (and also its success as a 12-inch single) the format was repeated with the next album and with this song which was longer than "Love to Love You Baby", clocking in at eighteen minutes. Edited versions were also released on the 7-inch single format.
