Released in Australia, New Zealand and the United Kingdom, it peaked at numbertwenty-three and fourteen on the Australian Singles Chart and the UK Singles Chart, respectively. This was her last charting single in the UK until her 2000 single "Spinning Around". To promote "Breathe", Minogue performed the song on "Top of the Pops" and her Intimate and Live Tour. Kieran Evans directed the song's music video, which features Minogue floating in an open airspace with spiral effects that were generated by CGI. The video was positively received for the production and the visual effects.
