"Out of Your Mind" is a song by UK garage duo True Steppers. It features Dane Bowers and Victoria Beckham, in her first appearance as a solo artist away from Spice Girls. The single was released on 14 August 2000 and reached number two on the UK Singles Chart, beaten to the top by Spiller's "Groovejet (If This Ain't Love)" in a highly publicised chart battle.

Background and composition

Explaining her collaboration with Dane Bowers, Beckham said she loved dance music and was "flattered" to be asked to sing on the track.{{cite web|url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/entertainment/869721.stm|title=BBC News – Entertainment – Posh performs a flashdance}}

Chart performance

In the United Kingdom, the single was released the same week as Spiller's "Groovejet (If This Ain't Love)", which features Sophie Ellis-Bextor. Although "Out of Your Mind" was predicted to be number one until Saturday, "Groovejet" outsold it by 20,000 copies by Sunday, holding it back to the number-two position.{{cite web|url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/886316.stm|title=Spiller star slams Posh campaign|publisher=BBC News|date=18 August 2000|access-date=1 April 2014}}{{cite web|url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/888516.stm|title=Posh suffers chart failure|publisher=BBC News|date=20 August 2000|access-date=1 April 2014}} "Out of Your Mind" sold 180,584 copies during its first week and has sold over 400,000 copies in the UK as of June 2017.{{cite web|url=https://www.officialcharts.com/chart-news/the-ultimate-official-spice-girls-solo-chart-all-their-singles-ranked-by-sales-__19520/|title=The Ultimate Official Spice Girls Solo Chart: All Their Singles Ranked by Sales|last=Copsey|first=Rob|publisher=Official Charts Company|date=29 June 2017|access-date=4 August 2023}} It was certified gold by the British Phonographic Industry and was the 21st-best-seller of 2000 in the UK.

Availability on streaming services

The track was unavailable on streaming services such as Spotify until June 2018. According to the BBC, a Twitter account named Pop Music Activism that lobbies record labels to make forgotten hits available online was "flooded" with requests for the song.{{Cite web |date=25 August 2024 |title=Record labels forgot these songs existed.
