"Kiss Your Mama!" is a nu-skool guitar rock groove with a blend of vintage soul. Vanessa co-wrote "Kiss Your Mama!", inspired by the belief of her gal pals that a guy who shows respect to his mother will treat his lady loves right too.

The video was shot in Melbourne with London director Stuart Gosling (Good Charlotte, Roni Size, Feeder). Says Vanessa.. "I wanted it based around a performance - with no acting or showing much skin to be sexy. I feel sexy onstage anyway. We shot it in an old building which had an amazing vibe inside. [2]
