The single was well-received in the United Kingdom, where it reached the 46th position on the 2002 singles charts. However, the song was not as successful in the United States, where it failed to chart. It is considered by some critics to be among the worst songs recorded by the group.
There is no fully uncensored version of this song. The version credited as the "Explicit Version" on both the CD singles and the 12 inch vinyl, that both carry a Parental Advisory sticker, is still partially censored and have the Scooby-Doo sound effects removed.
