Released as a single in June 1987, it was the third hit from the soundtrack to Beverly Hills Cop II and the first single from Michael's then-upcoming debut solo album Faith.
The song has three separate parts dubbed "Rhythms."
The first one, titled "Rhythm One: Lust", is the version released as a single and banned by the BBC. It appears by itself on the Beverly Hills Cop II soundtrack, and mixed with the second version, titled "Rhythm Two: Brass in Love", on Faith.
The second version also appears by itself as the B-side of the single.
A third part, "Rhythm Three: A Last Request", appears as a b-side to the "Hard Day" 7" and "Kissing A Fool" 12" singles, and on the CD version of Faith as a bonus track.
