This is Flume's rework of "Blue (Da Ba Dee)", the Eurodance earworm Eiffel 65 first released on Skooby Records in Italy in October 1998, and one of the many remixes and samples the song has attracted over the years. The original was hatched at Bliss Corporation in Turin before the group even existed: Maurizio Lobina's piano hook came first, Jeffrey Jey, Lobina and producer Massimo Gabutti wrote the song, and Gabry Ponte handled the beats and final arrangement.

It barely registered at first, then radio caught hold in 1999 and it went global, topping the charts in at least 18 countries and reaching number six on the Billboard Hot 100 in January 2000. In Britain it cracked the top 40 on import sales alone, only the third single ever to do that.
