Despite receiving mixed reviews from critics, the song was a success for the band after it reached number one on the charts in various countries around the world, including the United Kingdom, Ireland and New Zealand.

The accompanying music video for the song features the four girls dancing around a lush green field full of bright flowers with a puppy as they playfully tease a teenage boy.

"C'est la Vie" was written by B*Witched, Ray "Madman" Hedges, Martin Brannigan, and Tracy Ackerman.

In a perfect world, this dancey helping of youth-oriented pop would have no problem conquering the States with its giddy melody and squeaky-clean teenage vocals, but sadly, top 40 has again entered one of those periods during which it shuns most any uptempo track that might be considered plain and simple fun.

In any case, open-minded programmers who have had success with Britney Spears or Cleopatra should certainly give this a meaningful spin and let their audiences have a chance to catch on to the magic of this fearless track.

The boy is freed from the tree and the girls hose him with water and begin performing an Irish reel before lying back down in the field where they began.
