It is the follow-up to his very successful single, "No Coke" and was a notable hit in several countries.

A music video was also produced to promote the single.

Critical reception

Pan-European magazine Music & Media commented, "New recipe from the same private practice. For the follow-up to Hello Afrika and No Coke the Swedish bush doctor has added a spoonful of Real Milli Vanilli to his magic potion. Top-40 programmers must take a shot of it."[1]
