英國歌壇紅星［露露］──流行／靈魂／抒情曲──［Dont Take Love for Granted／別把愛當成理所當然］

I don′t mind if you dont call me every day

Just let me know that you′re not playin around

If you want me, baby, Ill be over right away

Don′t lead me on, then let me down

There must be something more to life than just

Running when it gets too serious

If I give my heart and put my trust in you (Then baby)

Don′t take my love, dont take my love

Don′t take love for granted

(Try a little harder, be a little stronger

Dont

Take love for granted

Try a little harder, be

A little stronger

Don′t take love for granted)

We dont have to walk beneath the moonlit skies

Don′t have to make believe youre dancing on air

When you kiss me you dont have to close your eyes

Not if I know you really care

There must be something more to life it seems

Than reading ′bout romance in magazines

If you give your love you can make my dreams come true (Then baby)

Don′t take my love, dont take my love

Don′t take love for granted

(Try a little harder, be a little stronger

Dont

Take love for granted

Try a little harder, be

A little stronger

Don′t take love for granted)

When you come around, come knocking at my door

Stay the night, treat me right, Ill feel secure

There might come a time when I′m the lonely one

Cant you see I want to be the only one (Only one)

(Try a little harder, be a little stronger

Dont

Take love for granted

Try a little harder, be

A little stronger

Don′t take love for granted)

(Try a little harder, be a little stronger

Don′t

Take love for granted

Try a little harder, be

A little stronger

Dont take love for granted)

１９７４年英國蘇格蘭女歌手／演員露露（Lulu）以［出賣世界的人／The Man Who Sold the World］登上英國單曲榜＃３，拿到事業代表作之一．

可是接下來推出單曲每下愈況，反應冷淡．

１９７８年，３０歲的露露推出大碟［Dont Take Love for Granted／別把愛當成理所當然］，由艾爾頓強（Elton John）的唱片公司The Rocket Record Company發行，Mark London和Lem Lubin擔任製作．

Mark London是露露職業生涯代表作［To Sir With Love］的作曲者，也是露露的長期經紀人Marion Massey的丈夫。

Lem Lubin曾是Unit 4 + 2和Christie樂團的貝斯手，並於1977年起擔任Rocket唱片公司的A&R主管。

根據露露回憶，這張專輯的起源是倫敦方面請她錄製幾首Neil Harrison的歌曲樣本。Harrison是Mark London近期發掘的一位作曲家。

露露原本打算把Harrison的歌推薦給其他歌手，但正如她後來所說：「我們一錄完樣本，就很明顯，它們不會只是樣本。它們顯然是為我而作的。」

首支單曲是標題曲［Dont Take Love for Granted］，由Neil Harrison創作，

Mark London和Lem Lubin製作成一首流行／靈魂／抒情曲，在柔緩的速度中，露露以溫婉的唱腔娓娓演繹．

不過大眾反應冷淡，單曲和專輯皆未入榜，繼續她的音樂事業低潮期．
