This record was not as successful as their prior releases in the US,but the band did find some success overseas. Singer Donnie Vie and bassist Chip Z'Nuff did a promotional tour of Japan,where the album peaked at No. 49 on the Oricon Charts.

In 1996,the song "Bring It On Home" was to be featured in the movie Jerry Maguire ,starring Tom Cruise. However,the song only appears listed in the credits and was not in the actual film,since it was in a deleted scene.

The song "Right by Your Side" was covered by the Norwegian rock group The Tuesdays in 1994. The same song was also covered in 2009 on G.O.O.D. Morning,G.O.O.D. Night by Malik Yusef,a Kanye West collaboration album. Yusef's version of the song also features Destiny's Child singer Michelle Williams on backing vocals. [6]
