[edit] Music video
The video for the song was filmed in Finsbury Park, North London. With a festival theme, it features Mutya performing on stage with an audience of fans jumping about, some dressed in animal suits in keeping with the Groove Armada "Get Down" video. The video was released in early July 2007, along with another version released on Buena's official website.
Groove Armada wrote the song for Buena, but it has been perceived by some fans as aimed directly at her Sugababes replacement Amelle Berrabah. This is an allegation denied by Groove Armada, as one of the working titles of the song was "Song 4 Estelle". However, Estelle Swaray did not match the requirements of the band and the song was given to Buena instead.
