The song reached number 16 in the United Kingdom, but was more successful in Australia, New Zealand and Norway, where it reached the top 10.
A compilation album, released by Simple Minds in 1992, is named after the song, and is entitled Glittering Prize 81/92
The lyrics reflect themes of aspiration and reflection, with lines like “Shine on, shine the light on me” and "A glittering prize is the price of lost love". The music video features the band performing in a golden room and a museum-like setting, adding a visual narrative to the song.
