[edit] Song information

Written and produced by the same team behind "Put Your Records On", the single did not fare nearly as well as its predecessor on the UK Singles Chart peaking at number forty, over thirty-eight places lower in the official charts, spending only two weeks inside the chart. However, the single managed to become Corinne's second consecutive airplay hit, peaking inside the UK airplay top 10 and propelling the her album back into the UK Albums Chart.

Rae performed this song and "Like a Star" on NBC's Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip.

The song's remix entered the Mexican Digital Sales Chart at number seventy-two.[1]
