Songfacts®:

  • Producers and DJs BL3SS & CamrinWatsin teamed up with production duo Punctual (Will Lansley & John Morgan) to create "Kisses." The sultry EDM track is smooth and pulsating, with layered atmospheric synths that build a sexy soundscape.
  • Bbyclose's vocals hint at a desire for something more than just a fleeting encounter. There's an undercurrent of urgency and temptation, with the repeated refrain urging their love interest to "go all night."
  • Released in March 2024, "Kisses" took time to simmer. As the song gained traction in clubs, its popularity grew steadily. Finally, in June 2024, it entered the UK Singles Chart.
  • This was the first visit to the UK Singles Chart for BL3SS, CamrinWatsin and Bbyclose. However, Punctual have form for crafting memorable dance music. Their CV includes hit singles for the likes of Nathan Dawe ("21 Reasons"), Switch Disco ("React") and Ella Henderson ("Alibi").
  • Did you clock each line on the hook ends with what sounds like a number, counting from one to five?

    Tell me that I'm the one
    Say that you love me too
    Kisses don't come for free
    So what you waiting for?
    Back to mine, only 5
