It was an album of cover songs with Kirsty MacColl's "They Don't Know" as the bit hit single (#8.) The video even had a cameo appearance by Paul McCartney, whom Ullman had been filming his Give My Regards to Broad Street.

Note that MacColl reprised her original "bay-ay-be-ee” to intro the third verse as Ullman had a limited high-end range.

In America, "Breakaway" was released next and peaked at #70. It had been the first single in the UK and peaked at #4.
