Single release by Canadian band Men Without Hats is the band's second of four singles taken from the debut album Rhythm of Youth (Apr. '82). The single version of the song varies from the album version by being considerably shorter with its playing time running 2:45 minutes, whereas the album version runs 4:37 minutes, but it's also in a different mix, known as the "Video Mix".
The song rocketed the duo all the way to the top of the charts in Europe and in the US that summer.
