Written by Furtado, and produced by Gerald Eaton, Brian West, and Furtado, the song was released as the album's second single on 2 July 2001, reaching number one in New Zealand, Portugal, and Romania, as well peaking within the top 10 in several other countries, including Australia, the United Kingdom, and the United States.
The regular version was directed by Sophie Muller and was filmed in Chinatown's Central Plaza in Los Angeles, California.
During the bridge Furtado is shown at an old house singing and playing the guitar, with the flag of the Azores both behind her and on her guitar (this scene is interpolated with shots of a DJ playing, also with the Azorean flag behind him, and topless men dancing while using skirts that resemble those used in Sufi whirling).
The underground video features Furtado playing the guitar in a wooden shed, wearing a white top and jeans.
[6] In Australia, although the song peaked at number seven,[7] it remained in the top 50 for 21 weeks and was certified Platinum for sales exceeding 70,000 copies.
