production was supervised by hans van hemert with the help of piet souer. van hemert and souer co-wrote all the album's tracks under the pseudonym janschen & janschens with the exception of "don juanito de carnaval" (a cover version of raffaella carrà's 1977 hit, "a far l'amore comincia tu"). the arrangements of the album were inspired by the music styles that were popular on the mainstream music market in the late 1970s: the abba-esque repertoire (especially with "my man" and "dream, dream"), carnival, spanish and latin american music sounds (with "u.o.me" and "don juanito de carnaval"), disco music (with "everybody's shaking hands on broadway") and pop music (with compositions like "you're the greatest lover" and "who do you wanna be").
