"Cherry Lips (Go Baby Go)" was the second single from beautifulgarbage, the third album from Garbage, and it arrived in early 2002. The band wrote, recorded and produced it themselves, with Shirley Manson, Duke Erikson, Steve Marker and Butch Vig sharing the credit, Daniel Shulman on bass and Billy Bush engineering.

It's the one that refused to go away. It turned into an alternative rock LGBTQ anthem, became the home run song for the Milwaukee Brewers and soundtracked ads for Microsoft's Surface Go. It was a hit in the UK and Ireland, reached No. 8 in Italy on the back of a Breil Stones winter campaign, and in Australia it became their biggest single, going Gold and spending five weeks, on and off, in the top ten. As their first single fully released after the September 11 attacks, a share of its royalties went to the International Red Cross.
