The 1995 UK release sparked an industry controversy when the Official Charts Company initially refused to allow the single chart placing due to the free calendar in the packaging, which broke a chart rule about free gifts. After it was pointed out that the chart compilers had allowed Madonna's "You'll See" to chart (which also contained a free calendar, albeit configured differently within the single packaging as postcards, rather than ring-bound), the decision was reversed just before the week's chart was issued.[3]

The song deals with sexual harassment, which Crow says she experienced during her rise to fame.
