The single became Samantha's third and final top ten single in the United Kingdom, peaking at #8 in June.[2] In the United States, the single was released in the fall of 1987 and reached only #80 that October.[3] It was a Top 10 hit in Continental Europe. It also reached #22 in Australia.

In 2009, Fox re-recorded the song with British producers Pete Hammond, Nathan Thomas, and Carl M Cox. It was supposed to feature on her 2009 "Greatest Hits" album, but as yet the track remains unreleased. The first evidence of its existence was a short clip on the website, www.prolificmedia.co.uk. The 2009 version has subsequently been discovered in its entirety at www.soundcloud.com.

In 2010 the song was covered by German television celebrity Daniela Katzenberger.
