The video received a lot of attention worldwide and was the stepping-stone for Carpark North to an international audience. [2]

The single Human was later featured in the worldwide hit game FIFA 08 , and the second single "Best Day" was the third most played song on Danish radio in 2005. The song "Rest" was used in the 2005 Danish film Nordkraft . [2]
