The song became a hit when reissued in 1973, in the wake of Bowie's commercial breakthrough "The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars" and the US reissue of his 1969 hit "Space Oddity". Despite it being radically different from his material at the time, the single made No. 6 in the UK charts and was certified silver in the UK (250,000 copies sold), which according to Carr and Murray left Decca Records as "about the only unembarrassed party". A second reissue in 1982 was not as successful, failing to chart.
