It was also released as the fourth single from that album in June 2004 and peaked at #9 in the UK Singles Chart (see 2004 in British music). In 2006 it came 87th in Q's 100 greatest songs ever.
The song is based on MTV2 and Queens of Noize DJ Mairead Nash with whom Johnny Borrell had a brief relationship. The song was featured in Pontiac television commercials in North America.
