This is Sonja Spence's only one 1981 release where she sings romantic traditional pop in her medium range in the style of Charlene D'Angelo, Samantha Sang and Olivia Newton-John with both reggae and lovers rock beat, featuring one lady named Valerie Russell singing like Patrice Holloway, who provided the singing voice of Valerie from the family '70s Hanna-Barbera cartoon, "Josie & The Pussycats" especially when she ad-libbed the backing vocal solo in her soprano range at the end of the song, "Fantasy" while singing backup with Jane Smith, Eddie Lovette and Louis Freeman behind Sonja herself.
