A faixa serviu como título do oitavo álbum de estúdio da banda americana Steve Miller Band, lançado em 1973.
Apoiada por um comercial de televisão da marca de roupas Levi's em setembro de 1990, a música surpreendentemente alcançou o primeiro lugar na parada de singles do Reino Unido mais de 16 anos após seu lançamento original.
Esse retorno ao topo das paradas britânicas durou duas semanas e gerou controvérsia por impedir que o single "Groove Is in the Heart", do trio Deee-Lite, assumisse a primeira posição.
Além do Reino Unido, a reedição de 1990 da canção atingiu a primeira posição nas paradas de singles da Irlanda e da Nova Zelândia.
Na Holanda, a versão relançada do final dos anos 90 liderou tanto a Nederlandse Top 40 quanto a Nationale Top 100.
Pouco depois do lançamento original em outubro de 1973, a música chegou ao topo da Billboard Hot 100 dos Estados Unidos no início de 1974.
