It debuted at number one on both the UK Dance Chart and the UK Singles Chart.

In 2014, "Gecko (Overdrive)" was featured in the soundtrack of the video game Forza Horizon 2.

Music video
A music video, containing grotesque imagery, was created for the song on 20 May 2014. The video begins with a man (played by Doug Willen) who rushes home from work to surprise his wife (Twila Ilgenfritz) for their wedding anniversary. He searches all over the house but can't seem to find her. He starts to meditate and a hand emerges from the anniversary cake. The wife jumps out and starts throwing her husband around the kitchen, dances sexually with him and kissing him aggressively before their daughter (Michaela Annette) and her boyfriend (Tim Allan) walk in on them. The four all have a very uncomfortable dinner, where the man and woman begin to act sexually again. The daughter and her boyfriend go upstairs, where the boy sees the woman has got tentacles. He and the daughter go into her room and uncomfortably kiss. While the man and woman have sex and use their tentacles and drip red and blue goo on each other, the daughter gets a pink tentacle and pulls her boyfriend into a kiss. The video ends with the man driving the boyfriend home.
