It was recorded (in two separate versions) by both Morrissey and by Nancy Sinatra, both of whom released their version as a single in the United Kingdom on 11 October 2004. Both versions entered the UK Singles Chart, Morrissey's peaking at number eight and Sinatra's at number 46. Morrissey's version also reached number 19 in Sweden and number 44 in Ireland.
Morrissey's version of the song features on his album You Are the Quarry. It was also Morrissey's third top ten single of 2004.
The single also saw the release of the track "Don't Make Fun of Daddy's Voice", a song that had been in Morrissey's live set list since May and had opened his set at the Glastonbury Festival that year despite being unreleased.
