Production and release

An American band called Foxy laid down the backing tracks to what eventually became "Kisses of Fire" and "If It Wasn't for the Nights". It is uncertain how much of these early recordings were retained.[1]

"Kisses of Fire" was released as the B-side to the single "Does Your Mother Know" in April 1979, shortly before the release of the Voulez-Vous album.[1]

The song was featured in Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again, performed by Panos Mouzourakis.

Critical reception

Abba - Uncensored on the Record explains "'Kisses of Fire", sounded much more like the ABBA everyone knew and loved, and was much more recognisably ABBA, although its insistent disco beat was possibly overplayed to an extent".[1]
