The title of the album is a play on the words of the sexual act of cunnilingus. The album includes a cover version of The Partridge Family's "I Think I Love You", which became their biggest hit in Australia, peaking at No. 12.[10]

The album was certified silver in the U.K. for shipments of 60,000 units.
