In September 1987, it was released as the fourth and final single from the album. A duet between Moyet and Freeman, the song reached No. 80 in the UK. The song "Take My Imagination to Bed", also written by the duo, was released as a B-Side on the 12" version of the UK Top 10 single "Weak in the Presence of Beauty" several months earlier.
