Notes:


Marian Gold's first solo album. Four of the songs are cover versions, the rest are original.
The cover versions are "The Shape of Things to Come" (written by G. Boyter, D. Lewis, C. Malcolm and D. Ross), "One Step Behind You" (by Tim Whelan), "Peace on Earth" (E. Sooter, J. Mennicken, and Voov) and "Roll Away the Stone" (Ian Hunter).
The album cover features Marian in a thoughtful pose, with the song titles overlaid on the image. The CDs had an added sticker announcing that Marian is "the voice of Alphaville".
