It has been described as a "feminist anthem".[1][2] It was an international success, reaching the top 40 in several countries, including the United Kingdom, the United States, Canada, France, and the Netherlands.
The song prominently features vocals by Oleta Adams, who went on to achieve a successful solo career.
