It was released in the UK in 1973 on the Warner Brothers label with the Motown song I Wish It Would Rain as the B side. It made number 8 in the UK charts in 1973 staying for 11 weeks on the chart.[3] AllMusic critic, Stephen Thomas Erlewine, described the song as "unremarkable".[4] Despite appearing on the picture sleeve, Ronnie Lane does not play bass or sing backing vocals on either side of the single, having quit the band before it was recorded and released as a single.
