[edit] Music video
The music video for the single was directed by Tim Royes, who also did the Red Dress music video and Holly Valance's Down Boy music video. It features the girls dressed in latex outfits, each in a different setting within a public toilet. Amelle uses the hand-dryers, Heidi with a red hair at the sinks and Keisha is lying down. When it comes to the chorus they are in adjacent cubicles using the doors as props, during the middle of the music video, the girls are seen in a showroom with a red curtain in different costumes. The video for the song is very popular on MTV Poland's "The Interactive Chart". It reached #1 spot several times.

[edit] Chart performance
This became the Sugababes' twelfth top 10 single and charted at #8, lower than had been expected following its heavy promotion. The single's low chart position could also be due to the fact that many fans were waiting to purchase Overloaded: The Singles Collection.
