UK Singles Chart
. It also peaked at No. 1 in Hungary and No. 6 in Italy.

Chart performance

"Shiver" reached No. 8 on the

Australasian Performing Right Association) category for 'Most Performed Foreign Work'.[4] It was also nominated for an Ivor Novello Award for 'Most Performed Track'.[5] As of 2011, "Shiver" had sold approximately 500,000 copies worldwide.[6]

Music video

The music video, inspired by the movie

My Prerogative, and Holly Valance's State of Mind. It was filmed in Kyiv, Ukraine, during winter, giving the video a bleak appearance, but also "intriguing visuals for a seemingly ordinary pop song".[7][8]

A departure from Imbruglia's previous video styles, Shiver had a spy-themed, action-packed plot with car chases and switched identities. Imbruglia burns her passport and personal effects, then steals a Citroën CX to make her escape. She is followed by her unnamed enemy, in this case men driving a GAZ Volga 3110 and a BMW 5 Series (E34).[9][7] Imbruglia is unusually calm despite these circumstances, implying that this is a typical occurrence.[10] Imbruglia manages to escape both sets of her pursuers, alters her appearance, and obtains new fake passport, in order to take a train to another city, but she remains a fugitive on the run.[8][11]
