Action was dropped after a suitable donation was made to charity and the single's cover changed.
Smith Klyne Beecham, the manufacturers of Lucozade, then realised the potential of marketing their energy drink to clubbers, and soon after used Adamski's song title 'N-R-G' in their own advertising, mimicking the original cover of the single.
