A música incorpora elementos da música ska e lida liricamente com a traição de um namorado, abordando o prazer de ver o sofrimento dele
Foi lançada em 3 de julho de 2006 como o primeiro single mainstream do álbum de estreia "Alright, Still", após Allen ganhar popularidade no MySpace
O clipe, dirigido por Sophie Muller, retrata um tema de vingança com Allen contratando uma turma para espancar seu ex, o que resultou em sua proibição na MTV devido a linguagem obscena
Lançou um cover em Simlish e até tem uma "música resposta" própria como estratégias de promoção
Ficou no topo das paradas de singles do Reino Unido por duas semanas consecutivas e encerrou o ano como a Undécima música mais bem sucedida do país
Conquistou um prêmio Pop Award na cerimônia da BBC Music Awards em 2008
