The song was released following a large media build-up due to the success of his first single. However, the launch of the song was marred by controversy when many radio stations and music channels banned the song and its accompanying music video due to the song's lyrical content and the bad reflection focused on CBS schools in Ireland.[1] Elton John slammed the song's lyrical content when he reviewed the track in Time Out, claiming the song was "just horrible".[2] With the bad press surrounding the song, it peaked at number six.
