Background
Even if Ooh, Yes I Do and Ann-Maria were successful, their sales didn't reach those of You're the Greatest Lover and Trojan Horse. Luv' recorded a pop track containing exotica and bubblegum pop elements: One More Little Kissy, hoping to have bigger success. However, this song did not achieve the desired results. Moreover, due to intern conflicts, Patty Brard decided to leave Luv' in August 1980 as the group was promoting the single. Because the pop act had legal obligations all over the world with its limited company (Interluv'), a new member had to be found. A model and limbo dancer, Ria Thielsch, was chosen to replace Patty.[2]
In 2025, "One More Little Kissy" was remixed as part of Only Luv' – The Matt Pop Remixes.
