The single was released in March 2002; the first of six to come from Patience, although the album itself was not released until 2004.
The song was George Michael's first material single in almost six years, entering the top 10 in the many European Charts reaching number-one in four countries (Spain, Italy, Denmark, and Portugal), the first time that George Michael hit number one in these countries since Careless Whisper.
