It peaked at No. 4 in the UK, and also made it to number two in Australia, number seven in Sweden, number ten in the United States and number eleven in Ireland. The third single, "Got the Feelin'", was released on 8 June 1998 and peaked at No. 3 in the UK, number two in New Zealand, number twelve in Sweden, number six in Austria and number four in Ireland and the Netherlands.
The fourth single, "Everybody Get Up", was released on 21 August 1998. It was the album's most successful single, debuting at number one in New Zealand, which gave Five their first ever number-one. The song also made it to number two in the UK, becoming Five's highest-charting song in the UK at the time. Other chart positions included number four in Germany, number nine in the Netherlands and number five in Austria and Sweden. The fifth single, "It's the Things You Do", was released in the United States only, on 27 October 1998. It was unsuccessful, only making it to number 53.
