Originalmente lançada em 1979 com o título longo "I Don't Believe You Want to Get Up and Dance (Oops!)", a faixa foi renomeada para "Oops Up Side Your Head" no single, além de ser conhecida por outras variações como "Oops Upside Your Head".
A música vem do quarto álbum de estúdio do grupo, *The Gap Band II*, e tanto o single quanto o disco alcançaram sucesso comercial significativo.
O single teve formatos variados por país: nos EUA foi um disco de 12 polegadas com "Party Lights" no lado B; na Holanda, o lado B de 12 polegadas era "The Boys Are Back in Town"; e na França, foi lançado apenas no formato de 7 polegadas sem lado B.
No Reino Unido, a faixa estreou primeiro como lado B em meados/fim de 1979, mas em 1980, devido à sua popularidade, foi invertida (flipped) para se tornar a música principal do single, com "The Boys Are Back in Town" passando para o lado B.
Apesar de não ter entrado na parada Billboard Hot 100, atingindo apenas o número dois na parada Bubbling Under Hot 100, a canção entrou no top dez das paradas de R&B e disco dos EUA.
Internacionalmente, o single foi um grande sucesso fora dos EUA, chegando ao número seis nas paradas tanto do Reino Unido (em 1980) quanto da Holanda.
