The [music video](/source/music_video), despite being made in the late 1990s, was made to look cheap even though it cost over £10,000{{Citation needed|date=May 2024}}. It regularly features on [VH1](/source/VH1)'s "worst videos" lists.

After this number one, they released a further hit "Let's Get Down",<ref name="Chart"/> which was based on [Chic](/source/Chic_(band))'s "[I Want Your Love](/source/I_Want_Your_Love_(Chic_song))". Both tracks were released on the [East West Records](/source/East_West_Records) [label](/source/record_label).
