The song is a sarcastic attack on the currently pop saturated British music charts. The song has a mock indie pop sound in its verses but also contains a guitar solo backed by complex polyrhythms. It was written in response to a record producer who told InMe that their songs for their 4th album Herald Moth should be shorter, catchier and not contain any guitar solos.
The single had relative success and received a moderate amount of airplay on British rock radio stations and received vast amount of airplay on Scuzz TV.
