This is a song written and performed by British electronic dance music duo Orbital, who comprise brothers Phil & Paul Hartnoll. The original form of the tune first appeared on the Radiccio EP, which peaked at #37 on the UK singles chart. It did not appear on a full-length album until the compilation Work 1989-2002, and then only in its shorter "single edit."
Despite never being a big hit, the song is one of the mainstays of Orbital's live performances, in which it is frequently remixed with clips from Belinda Carlisle's "Heaven Is a Place On Earth"and Bon Jovi's "You Give Love a Bad Name."
The song features a backmasked vocal sample by Kirsty Hawkshaw from "It's a Fine Day" by Opus III. Paul Hartnoll told the NME August 7, 2010: "The reason we sampled it was we'd said we should do a track together and never got round to it - all of a sudden they got successful with that so we thought, 'Let's bloody sample that then.'"
