Written by the all four members of the band, it reached #13 on the UK singles chart and stayed on the charts for 10 weeks.

[3] Record Mirror said of the song on 13 May 1972, "Having had their fair share of the knocks and problems of fame, Free are back in full swing again.

It's a relaxed put together production, good lead voice, solid beat – a philosophic song and easy to pick up in the mind.

"[4] Record World on 27 May 1972 said "the strongest singles of the week come from Free, ("Little Bit Of Love" on Island)...".

The single was released in the United Kingdom on 5 May 1972 as "Little Bit of Love", however not all releases had exactly the same name, for instance, in German, France, Spain, etc.
