History
Stuck on Replay was originally featured on the album Under The Radar Over The Top. Much speculation rose because footage of Scooter frontman H.P. Baxxter in what appeared to be a music video for the song was released in some promotional material for the album. However, even after the material was released, the third single from Under The Radar Over The Top, "The Sound Above My Hair" was released. A fourth single was still expected, but no word was given until February 2010, when the IIHF announced that "Stuck on Replay" would be the official song of the 2010 IIHF World Championship, giving a one minute sample along with the press release that sounded different from the album version. It was also announced that "Stuck On Replay" would indeed be the fourth single from Under The Radar Over The Top. Several days later, it was confirmed that the song would be receiving a 2-track and a Maxi release, unlike its predecessor, "The Sound Above My Hair".
Music video
The music video was released on February 25, 2010 on the official Kontor Records website and YouTube. The video is a compilation of short videos of various European hockey matches and shots of frontman and vocalist H.P. Baxxter singing against different backgrounds, accompanied by background shots of Michael Simon and Rick J. Jordan. The video also features dancers performing the Melbourne Shuffle in city scenes, as well as shots of Lithuanian dancer Giedre Mockeliunaite dancing in various outfits.
An extended version of the music video was released on March 5, 2010, a week before the single's release. The video contains added footage of the dancers doing the Melbourne Shuffle, and is an extra two minutes longer than the original.[5] The extended version of the song contains added beats at the beginning and end of the song, along with longer verses and choruses.
Chart performance
After the first week of release it entered the German charts at number 34, which was disappointing to many fans as they expected it to enter higher due to the single being released during the tour. It is however expected to climb once the world ice hockey championships start (May 7), as it is the official song of that tournament. The single also entered the Austrian charts at number 58 after the first week of release. Stuck on Replay rose up to position 58 several weeks later, possibly due to the IIHF Championships happening.
