Composition
Heather sings the lead of the duet the song which was originally sung by Dennis Edwards and Mark Bell sings the female part (originally sung by Siedah Garrett). Heather slightly alters the third line of the first verse: "What you need is a lover, someone to take over. Oh babe, don’t look any further." instead of singing: "What you need is lover, a man to take over. Oh girl, don’t look any further."
The M People version stayed very faithful to the original, incorporating the much sampled baseline, with a trademark deeper moog sound, programmed drumming sticking to the same familiar base drum beat. However, instead of the guitar in the middle eight, they used a saxophone in its place and just one set of keys with progressive and chords plays throughout with splices of percussive drumming at junctions between verses and choruses.
Finally, the backing vocals were provided by critically acclaimed British R&B Gospel Group Nu Colours.

Famous quotes containing the word composition:
“At painful times, when composition is impossible and reading is not enough, grammars and dictionaries are excellent for distraction.”
—Elizabeth Barrett Browning (1806–1861)
“Since body and soul are radically different from one another and belong to different worlds, the destruction of the body cannot mean the destruction of the soul, any more than a musical composition can be destroyed when the instrument is destroyed.”
—Oscar Cullman. Immortality of the Soul or Resurrection of the Dead? The Witness of the New Testament, ch. 1, Epworth Press (1958)
“Give a scientist a problem and he will probably provide a solution; historians and sociologists, by contrast, can offer only opinions. Ask a dozen chemists the composition of an organic compound such as methane, and within a short time all twelve will have come up with the same solution of CH4. Ask, however, a dozen economists or sociologists to provide policies to reduce unemployment or the level of crime and twelve widely differing opinions are likely to be offered.”
—Derek Gjertsen, British scientist, author. Science and Philosophy: Past and Present, ch. 3, Penguin (1989)
