In the UK, the record was equally popular and was released as a double A-side with "What Is Love", and, with the UK single released with the subtitle "peanut butter mix" (because the single was heavily edited and completely omitted the contributions by Bootsy Collins and Q-Tip), it eventually reached number 2 during September 1990.[15] Its placing second was due to a rule instituted in the UK Singles Chart in the 1980s, which settled any "ties" over chart positions due to equal sales: the single with sales that had increased most from the previous week would reside above the other, controversially giving "The Joker" by the Steve Miller Band the top place. Following complaints from Deee-Lite's record company, WEA, the rule, of which this had been the only case, was scrapped and joint positions were once again allowed. However, it turned out that the 2,595 panel sales that both records achieved for this week of 15 September 1990 had been rounded up, with chart compilers Gallup later releasing the data that showed that the Steve Miller Band were indeed a fraction ahead (selling about eight copies more than Deee-Lite).[16] "The Joker" spent a second week at the number-one spot and thereafter convincingly outsold "Groove Is in the Heart".
They're idiots, if the sales figures had been the same when they calculated them they should have had a LIKE OhMeeGawd, TWO NUMBER ONES! AT THE SAME TIME! Look at this chart! Looks at this chart show, the CHARTS ARE EXCITING! But no, they had to go for the blandie. Oh, it's Faith No More. |

- Bass-O-Matic or something, I was too busy playing with little Ziggy.
Then you missed the fact that the "band" includes William Orbit of Madonna Ray of Light and All Saints Pure Shores fame. |

Is this that mad one Wendykins likes? I thought it was a very good live vocal. |

They glossed over this on TOTP but I remember it being on Newsround or something at the time and was fairly big news. TOTP chose to sweep the sandal under the carpet. |

Oh, I have heard of this song.

| Also it sounds like Paul Harcastle's late 80s production. |
