It was released as Girls Aloud's eighth single on 21 February 2005, the fifth and final single to be taken from their second album What Will the Neighbours Say?. It continued Girls Aloud's string of top five hits on the UK Singles Chart, but was their lowest charting at the time.The single faced a slight controversy due to its "boozy lyrics." The song references Bud and margaritas in the first verse. It was reported that Girls Aloud were going to re-record the song because "ducers are wary of playing the song on children's TV in its unaltered form."
