It became a hit in mid-1991, staying at the top of the French Singles Chart for 11 weeks.

The song formed the basis for a side-scrolling platform game, Lagaf': Les Aventures de Moktar — Vol 1: La Zoubida, developed by Titus Interactive; the game would later be altered and released as Titus the Fox internationally.

The girl is saved by her friend Moktar, but, as he is a robber of "golden" scooters, the two end the night at the police station.
