It became their highest-charting hit of the 1980s, peaking at number 2 on the UK Singles Chart, a position "You Sexy Thing" had also reached five years before. The two songs are, however, outdone by their 1977 chart-topper, "So You Win Again", which was Hot Chocolate's only Number 1 single in the UK.

"No Doubt About It" was released on RAK label under the catalogue reference RAK 310, and spent eleven weeks in the chart.[2]

The tune was written by Mike Burns, Steve Glen and David Most (the brother of the band's manager, Mickie Most.[1] The song deals with the experiences of a man who witnesses a UFO landing.
