When recording his Last Night album, rather than teaming up with recognized singers, Moby worked with friends or "unknowns" he admired. The New York musician told The Sun newspaper May 8, 2008: "For the first song (on the album), Ooh Yeah, my friends Erin and Lucy came over. We made spaghetti, sat on the roof and then recorded vocals - that was it." "Alice" and "Disco Lies" are other examples of Moby utilizing the talents of little-known performers on the album.
This is the fourth and final single from Last Night, Moby's eighth studio album. It peaked at #3 on the US Dance Club Songs chart.
Directed by Matteo Bernardini, the music video takes place at a porno shoot where two of the leading ladies get down to business with a pizza delivery boy. Bernardini's clip was the winning entry, chosen by Moby, in a global competition to determine the official video. The director also won $10,000. Moby spoke of the video in a 2008 interview with the SuicideGirls blog, saying: "One of the things I found so endearing about the video is that it's sort of this fake '70s American porn, but it's so Italian. You've got the pizza boy walking down what is so clearly an old Italian street. The only thing I wanted is that I wanted all the text to be in Italian, because I thought that made it funnier, but he didn't understand because he's Italian and to him, Italian text-there's nothing funny about it. It's almost like spaghetti porn. You know when they'd shoot spaghetti westerns in Italy? This is spaghetti porn."
