Belinda Carlisle and Diane Warren have a long history of working together after first collaborating on Carlisle's 1987 album, Heaven on Earth, which featured the Warren written songs, "I Get Weak" and "World Without You".

Carlisle's last English-language pop record, A Woman & a Man was released in 1996, before hitting pause on her recording career while focusing on her live shows.

A new collection of songs was teased in October 2022 with Carlisle announcing "I'm making a music video today for the first time in over 25 years" via twitter.

In February 2023, Carlisle said "27 years on from making my last English language pop record I really wasn't thinking I would ever make one again... and I was quite happy with that idea. Then a chance encounter in a coffee shop led me back to the wonderful Diane Warren and she gave me the incredible gift of this song and the other songs on my upcoming EP.Carlisle pondered on the idea of recording new music, adding "But I went to the studio and I don't even know what to say – it was so good. There are about three singles on the EP and they're incredible."

Warren added, "I'm so excited for everyone to hear Belinda's new record, she's never sounded better. It's so great to be working together again after all these years."

The EP track listing and cover art were revealed via Twitter on March 16, 2023
