This is my favorite song by TBEP. But I'm not sure if Fergie was a part of the group when this song came out.

I really liked this song. It took a while to grow on me. I originally discovered this song through the morning show Good Day Live which was syndicated for a while (Good Day LA is still on in Los Angeles). Whenever Jillian Barberie and Steve Edwards would argue and kind of talk over each other (which was like every 2 minutes), they would play this song.

Fergie was a part of the BEP when it came out. It's her vocals you hear. It's one of their better songs.

It's one of my favorite BEB songs too, but (as is often the case when I really like a song) it didn't get a lot of airplay. Pity.

I remember really liking this song when it first came out and bought the Now CD just because this song was on it.

This will go down in history (well my version of it anyway) as one of the biggest shoulda-been hits ever.

At the time I thought this was the worst BEP song. But after My Humps, I have to regretfully slide this song to the 2nd worst song I have ever heard from them. It's just that bad.

I was never a fan. I bet if this had been a big hit, everyone would hate it the way they hate 'My Humps'.
I think my favourite BEP song would have to be either 'Hey Mama', 'My Humps' or 'Let's Get It Started'.
You all are so it started!

My Humps is my favourite BEP song. They have so many great songs but this is tops!

This song is fantastic. BEP have went from being awesome to being absolute crap. "My Humps" is complete garbage. I miss the old days of BEP when they had songs like "Weekends"

i still think that my humps is their best song to date (the lil jon remix being even BETTER than the original) and i also like let's get retarded and hey mama
but shut up was pretty good for it's time-- great mixing potential too

This was an excellent song. Too bad everything after that is unremarkable, including "My Humps", the worst song ever made.

Annoying, yet catchy as fuck, just like about 90% of their discography.

I like the melody during Fergie's parts and can easily tolerate the rest.

Back before the BEP's music got obnoxious and ridiculous for me, this is the second song of theirs I knew and the first that I liked.

Australia - #1 Austria - #1 Belgium - #1 France - #1 Germany - #1 Hungary - #1 Ireland - #1 Italy - #1 New Zealand - #1 Norway - #1 Poland - #1 Sweden - #1 Switzerland - #1 Denmark - #2 Netherlands - #2 UK - #2
Like what??...

One of my favorites if not my favorite by them but I think it took me a second to get into it.

Whitney Houston singing this in her car is a mood.
Such an iconic song. I don't get why they didn't release this in the US when it was a huge worldwide smash?
