'Things Can Only Get Better' was a slow burner to begin with; taking a few months to reach the Top 40 in the UK, and initially receiving position #24 in 1993. Peter Cunnah decided to remix and re-release the track, catapulting it to #1 for 4 weeks in 1994.
The track was also used as the Labour Party's theme tune during their successful campaign in the 1997 General Election.
