One single was released from the album: "I Want You Tonight", reaching No. 19 in the United States.
Critical reception
Template:Music ratings The Globe and Mail wrote that "the problem is songwriter Cory Lerios, an under-achiever who takes little care with his tunes; he evidently picks an inoffensive chord pattern and constructs a series of notes that don't conflict, making preposterously weak melodies, which he then places on top of predictable rhythm tracks."[2]
