"Trippin'" was the first single from New Zealand glam metal band Push Push. The song was also recorded around the same time by Auckland punk stalwarts "The Warners" (1984-1995) and appeared on the Crazy Horses single released by Wildside records.
The music video is a performance video directed by Chris Mauger. It won Best Music Video at the 1992 RIANZ New Zealand Music Awards.
The single was number one in New Zealand for six weeks and the only local song to top the New Zealand charts in 1991.
In 1999, New Zealand electronic act Baitercell released a techno version featuring American-Australian performer Miz Ima Starr. The song later appeared in the film I'll Make You Happy and its soundtrack CD which was released by Flying Nun Records.
