Even though this song was basically a flop, it is my favorite Sheyl Crow single. I've never understood why it stalled at #88 on the Hot 100 and #44 in the UK -- especially when it was the follow up to "Soak Up The Sun." Luckily the Grammy voters saw things my way and she won Best Female Rock Vocal Performance in 2002 for this song. No denying that this was a great record: from the vocals, to the guitar, to the carefree lyrics. |

I like this song. My favorite Steve McQueen movies are "The Towering Inferno" and "The Blob."

This was good. I didn't know it flopped; I used to see it a lot on Vh1.

I agree, too, that it should've been a bigger hit. My favorite Steve McQueen movie is The Hunter.

I liked it at the time. It's not a classic though. It flopped for the same reason singles by artists like Jewel, Dido and Sarah McLachlan flopped after big first singles around that time. Hot AC women really struggle to have multiple hits per album, for whatever reason.

Definitely one of my favorite Crow songs, especially from this decade

It should have been a much bigger hit!! Sheryl's record company wasn't interested in promoting this single at all.

This one was far better than 'Soak Up The Sun', but still average compared to the rest of her material.
I thought C'mon C'mon was just a horrible album.

Pretty good but not her best.

I always had a soft spot for this, it's a shame it kind of tanked though. I mean it's not deep or anything, but it's a fun song from her.

This song was alright but far from her best. I'd take this over "Soak Up The Sun" anyday though.

Not one of my favorite singles by her, but my favorite single from this album.

I hated this song at the time but like it more now. Definitely has the feel of a lot of her 90s stuff...which is why I think it didn't do as well. Times had changed a little. No question for me that she never looked better than in this video

In terms of her singles, this is barely a blip and not even close to being her best, but I still like it. The chorus is so catchy.
