"Over and Over" was the first single from The Warning, Hot Chip's second album, though the song was out in the world well before that: it first surfaced in December 2004 on a Radio Soulwax mix aired in Australia, on BBC Radio 1's Essential Mix in the UK and on Studio Brussel in Belgium, and it turned up on the Barbarian EP in 2005. Joe Goddard and Alexis Taylor lead the writing credit, and the track is wiry electropop that turns repetition into the whole point.
It came out twice in the UK in 2006, reaching number 32 in March and 27 in October. Nima Nourizadeh's video promises big special effects and instead shows the band on a green-screen stage while bored assistants in green bodysuits shuffle props around, even moving trees to fake a bike ride.
