"Apple Eyes" arrived in October 1995, a month ahead of The Woxo Principle, the second album from Australian funk outfit Swoop, and it was the third single Mushroom pulled from it, after "Neighbourhood Freak" and "Rock Dog". It turned into the band's most successful single, climbing to number nine on the ARIA chart and going gold on shipments of more than 35,000 copies.

The industry took notice as well: at the 1996 ARIA Music Awards it was up for both Song of the Year and Best Video.
