Reception

In a statement relayed to the press by Sunita Kaur, managing director of Spotify for Asia dated August 26, 2014, it revealed its first-ever list of most-streamed artists and songs four months after the platform was launched in the Philippines. The song came in as the most-streamed OPM song, while Geronimo came in second as the most streamed local artist, behind Eraserheads. [5] [6]

During the 2015 Myx Music Awards, Geronimo received the Best Remake award for the recording. [7]

2024 resurgence

In July 2024, the song became a favorite sound among TikTok users making fan-made videos of celebrities. Gaining traction on the platform, videos of Geronimo performing the song during the 2014 Box Office Entertainment Awards and at her 20th anniversary concert in 2024 resurfaced on the platform, fueling a song cover trend and making the song enter the Billboard Philippines Hot 100 at number 89 the week of July 27. In August, a TikTok user by the name of "donotdisturb869" posted a video of a young male student named Ralp Villaruiz dancing to bridge of the song, which went viral and started a dance challenge. Some of the personalities who took on the dance challenge are Stell of SB19, Sheena Catacutan of BINI, and BGYO. [8] [9] [10] [11] [12]

The song (and its dance challenge) was showcased on It's Showtime on August 31, 2024, with Villaruiz himself appearing and dancing to the song. A day later, Regine Velasquez performed the song on ASAP , with Villaruiz later returning to dance. [13] Geronimo later performed the song on September 1, 2024, in General Santos City. [14] [15]

As a result of its resurgence, the song became the number one trending song on YouTube Philippines and peaked at number 23 on the Philippines Hot 100. The song also reached the top spot of United Kingdom-based online karaoke platform Sing King's August Hot Hits chart, outcharting Billie Eilish's "Birds of a Feather" and LISA's "Rockstar".
