After the success of the previous two singles it was expected to equal the chart position of "Tell Me When" and "One Man in My Heart". But unlike the two previous singles it was not play listed by BBC Radio 1 and received minimal national airplay, affecting sales. The single eventually peaked at number 36 in the UK singles chart, spending a total of two weeks in the charts.
