Cowell had contacted record producer and songwriter George Hargreaves, who in turn provided the song "So Macho".

Sinitta looked poised for success; however, Iain Burton changed his mind and contacted Cowell to advise he was pulling the plug on Fanfare Records.

The song's popularity led Cowell to make the decision to delete the single at the end of October 1985 to let demand build up again.

The song's belated video was recorded for £500 in a London flat belonging to one of Cowell's friends, in the hope of gaining TV exposure.
