After its release, the song became only a minor hit on the R&B charts, peaking at a modest number 26 on the Hot Soul Singles chart, while failing to enter the Billboard Hot 100, in early 1981. After releasing the song, LaBelle would be released from her Epic contract and go on to sign with Philadelphia International Records.
LaBelle has only performed the song sporadically in the years since the early eighties.
The song was covered by Scottish singer Lulu in 1982 on her album Take Me To Your Heart Again.
