Along with the track "Underestimate", their debut single reached number one for two weeks on the US Billboard Dance Club Songs chart and is also their biggest single. "1-2-3" was the Chimes' only Billboard Hot 100 hit, peaking at number 82.

In 1990, the song was featured on their debut and only album, The Chimes.

Critical reception

Stewart Mason from AllMusic described the song as "meaty acid house".[1] Paul Lester from Melody Maker felt it "is kinda uptempo, but it glides."[2] A reviewer from Music & Media commented, "A muscular, square beat, a house-oriented piano and a soulful vocal delivery typify this chart-bound club record."[3] Miranda Sawyer from Smash Hits noted Pauline Henry's "remarkable voice" and described the song as "classy" in her review of The Chimes.[4]
