Tripping on Your Love

About Tripping on Your Love

"Tripping on Your Love" is a song recorded by English girl group Bananarama. It appears on the group's fifth studio album Pop Life and was released as the album's fourth single in the UK and the first single in the United States. The track was co-written and produced by Youth. This is the last single released featuring member Jacquie O'Sullivan, and the group as a trio. The single is considered by Bananarama to be their biggest commercial flop in the UK, just missing the top 75 of the UK singles chart. It was originally intended to be the album's second single (following "Only Your Love") but was delayed as two different songs were released as singles. By the time "Tripping on Your Love" was issued, O'Sullivan had announced her departure from the group, and Bananarama's long-time manager Hillary Shaw also quit [1]. In addition, group member Sara Dallin was pregnant with her first child, which made promotion nearly impossible. The song is a fusion of acid house, South Asian, rap, and Caribbean music. The album version was remixed by Robin Hancock before it was released as a single. It was not included on the original version of The Very Best of Bananarama, but a remix was included on a special edition bonus CD of the compilation. more »
