Background
It borrows melodic and lyrical passages from "Be My Baby" by The Ronettes. The chorus to Buena's version is sung by British soul singer Amy Winehouse. The single was commercial failure for Mutya and her label, charting at #73 on the UK Top 75. However, promotion for the single managed to get the album back into the UK Albums Chart, debuting at #88 and peaking at #83. "B Boy Baby" has since been used in various adverts on UK television. In 2008, the song surged in downloads and peaked at #1 on the Greek's iTunes Top 10 Singles Chart.

Famous quotes containing the word background:
“In the true sense one’s native land, with its background of tradition, early impressions, reminiscences and other things dear to one, is not enough to make sensitive human beings feel at home.”
—Emma Goldman (1869–1940)
“Silence is the universal refuge, the sequel to all dull discourses and all foolish acts, a balm to our every chagrin, as welcome after satiety as after disappointment; that background which the painter may not daub, be he master or bungler, and which, however awkward a figure we may have made in the foreground, remains ever our inviolable asylum, where no indignity can assail, no personality can disturb us.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“... every experience in life enriches one’s background and should teach valuable lessons.”
—Mary Barnett Gilson (1877–?)
