In the United Kingdom, the song was a commercial failure during its original release in 2000, but two years later, the song was rereleased and peaked at number seven for four weeks in December 2002 and January 2003. In Scotland, the song reached number two in early January 2003. Its success in the United Kingdom allowed the song to receive a silver certification from the British Phonographic Industry in 2015 for sales and streams exceeding 200,000.

In 2020, the song was used as a lipsync number in the finale episode of Canada's Drag Race, which was won by Priyanka.[1] In the same year, Love Inc.'s Simone Denny appeared on CBC Television's annual New Year's Eve special, performing the song as part of Tyler Shaw's set.[2]
