It sold 144,936 copies in its first week and was Britain's eighteenth best-selling song of 2000. The song was successful in other markets, topping the charts in seven countries and receiving positive acclaim. By April 2021, the song had sold more than 477,000 copies in UK. The music video was directed by Francis Lawrence. It shows Melanie C waking up in a futuristic home and practicing tai chi with Lopes.

Music video
The accompanying music video for "Never Be the Same Again" was filmed in January 2000 in Malibu, California, and shows Melanie C with short blonde hair as on the CD single cover wearing white clothes. It begins with a CD player (which says "Good day" in Icelandic, suggesting that the video is based in Iceland) and sound system starting up in a metal and glass room in a high building with glass bridges with smoke rising from below with a field background. She is also seen jogging on a treadmill with a changing foreground, lying in shallow water and on a bed in the dark with an orange-colored laser moving down her. Lisa "Left Eye" Lopes comes into the video to do her rap and both are seen doing tai chi. Later, Melanie C is floating up in a high-ceiling room and the video ends with her looking at the outside view. The video includes shots of Iceland's famous Blue Lagoon. The entire idea for the video came from Melanie C herself: she wanted to make a calm video showing her taking care of her health.
