The title of the album is derived from the singer Róisín Murphy's chat-up line to Mark Brydon at a party in 1994: "Do you like my tight sweater? See how it fits my body!"[1] Brydon responded with the question, "Would you like to come up to my studio and record that?" A romantic and professional relationship between the two continued for several years after.

Do You Like My Tight Sweater? combined three tracks ("Where Is the What If the What Is in Why?", "Party Weirdo", and "Ho Humm") from a 1995 independently released EP Where Is the What If the What Is in Why? (also known as Moloko EP) with fourteen new recordings. It was reported by Billboard in 1996 that total sales had reached 100,000 copies.[2] As of 2003 it has sold over 250,000 copies worldwide.[3]

The album's first single, "Fun for Me", was used on the soundtrack of the 1997 film Batman and Robin, and was used as the theme for a Lucky Strike advertisement in Spain. The video, "Fun for Me" was inspired by Batman & Robin and directed by Bill Fishman.

The album was certified silver by the British Phonographic Industry in July 2013,[4] for UK sales exceeding 60,000 copies.
