It was released in July 1979 and became one of the duo's biggest hits, peaking at number four in the UK Singles Charts.

It was with "Love's Gotta Hold on Me" however that Dollar achieved their first top ten placing when it peaked at No.4 in the UK in September 1979.

[1] A departure from their first two hits, this song was written by the duo themselves and was a soft-voiced ballad, sung by Thereza Bazar rather than David Van Day to his annoyance who was originally slated to sing lead, but on recording the demo his voice didn't fit the quiet tone of the song and producer Christopher Neil gave it to Bazar instead.

Van Day later commented on the situation; "I was supposed to be doing a solo career, and now she's singing the lead and there's hardly any of me on it - and I wrote the bloody thing!"

[4] Of the singles mentioned from the previous 12 months (including some British No.1's), Dollar's "Love's Gotta Hold on Me" was listed as one of the songs rigged to get into the charts.
