Released in 1995, the single was a minor hit in Sweden, charting for one week.[1] The song was also released in Denmark and Germany, although it failed to chart. It was the only Aqua release under their original manager, Michael Brinkenstjärna, who would later successfully sue them for royalties relating to this and later releases.
The single is now a rare collector's item with less than one thousand copies in existence. The song has not appeared on any of their studio or compilation albums.
