Although Hooverphonic had been performing since the mid-90s, it wasn't until 2000 before they scored a hit in the Flemish Ultratop 50. With "Mad About You" the group spent 14 weeks in the charts, peaking at number 23. The Magnificent Tree, the album which contained "Mad About You", became an even bigger success in Belgium.
