History
When Lange wrote the song and submitted it to the band, it was entitled "We Both Believe in Love", but was retitled after Lewis made some lyrical revisions. The unrevised version was originally recorded by British band Supercharge, on which Lange sang lead vocals, on the 1979 album Body Rhythm.
