Orlando conceived the idea for The Flirts, wrote the songs, played the instruments, and produced the tracks. He then auditioned girls to be the face of the group. Orlando often called in the services of professional session singers to sing the vocals for the tracks because most of the performers were trained as dancers, models, or actresses. The Flirts went through numerous lineup changes and with every album release and tour, some girls left the group while others stayed. The Flirts released six studio albums from 1982–1992 and assorted singles. They made several international tours in the 1980s, often in the club circuit, and would usually lip-synch or sing alongside the recordings.
Bobby discovered and produced the Pet Shop Boys. The Flirts' 1982 song Passion was cited by Pet Shop Boys' Chris Lowe as a primary reason for the band's formation.

When you're looking for love
When you need someone to lean on, darling, look me up
Come to me (Come to me)
When you're looking for dreams
When you need someone to talk to, darling, come to me
You can count on me, no need to doubt
You're not alone as long as I'm around
I'll be your strentgth and lift you off the ground
When you're afraid I'll chase away your fear
I'll make you so secure and give you near
You're not alone as long as I'm around

There's one thing I can tell you, you can count on me

Este tema es synth pop / disco con toques de guitarra new wave. Tiene 120 bpm por lo que no es high energy
