"Big Thing" was picked up by DJs on Kiss-FM and Tony Blackburn on his BBC Radio London show. Thanks to that the single sold 10,000 copies in a week.[2] Because of this success, "Big Thing" was released on the A-side, and "Thinking About His Baby" on its B-side. For this release, "Big Thing" was also remixed by Blue Zone (Big Dub Club Mix).[3][4]

Although Blue Zone's 1988 album was titled Big Thing, it did not feature "Big Thing." The song was later included on "This Is the Right Time" single (1989), The Complete Collection box set (2003), and "Easier/Treat Me Like a Woman" single (2004). Stansfield performed it during her 2013 Seven Tour.

gollark: How well does your parser handle stuff like `<br>`?
gollark: To be honest Perl regexes probably can parse HTML, but they are also probably TC.
gollark: It encourages people to keep doing their silly standard-violating things because they technically *work*, and makes your parsing logic more complex and flaky.
gollark: And they *do* handle it, because at some point down the line someone thought making it compatible was better than encouraging people to NOT DO REALLY STUPID UNPARSEABLE THINGS.
gollark: A few websites will just go "Standards? What are they?" and ignore the standards and then just expect parsers to handle it anyway.
