This was the 3rd single from her 2nd album Kala. It is a partial cover of the song " Jimmy Jimmy Aaja Aaja" from the Bollywood movie Disco Dancer which was inspired by Ottawan's " T'es OK". M.I.A. used to dance to the Bollywood song as a child at parties. The song went on to only do well in Australia. There was an alternate single version produced by Dan Carey which had certain elements played up to be more like the older Bollywood version. It was also a few seconds shorter.

This is my absolute favorite M.I.A. song. It's so different from mostly everything that she has done. As a fan of the Bollywood version of the song from before, I like how this pays tribute to that while bringing in something new.

I absolutely love this still and a lot of her stuff I always loved that she took so many world influences including Indian/Bollywood influences
