Beckham also recorded a version of the song in [[French language|French]] titled "Mon cœur n'en fait qu'à sa tête".
A Mind of Its Own debuted at number 6 on The Official UK Singles Chart on February 13, 2002, selling just under 24,000 copies in its first week.<ref>{{Cite web |last=https://www.worldradiohistory.com/UK/Music-Week/2002/Music-Week-2002-02-23.pdf |title= |url=}}</ref> Official sales of the single in the United Kingdom are at 56,500 copies.<ref>{{Cite web |last=https://web.archive.org/web/20110505094225/http://foreverspice.com/spicediscography/victoriabeckham-amoio.htm |title= |url=}}</ref>

The song debuted at number six on the [[UK Singles Chart]], selling 56,570 copies to date. It later ended as the 173rd best-selling song of 2002 in the country. The song's chart success was later an alleged contribution to Beckham, alongside her fellow [[Spice Girls]] members [[Emma Bunton]] and [[Mel B]], being dropped from [[Virgin Records]], although the label denied this.
