It became a worldwide commercial success, earning multi-platinum certifications, and remains her best-selling album in North America to date.

"Bad Love" was released as a single, reaching the No. 1 position on the Album Rock Chart in the United States, and being awarded a Grammy Award for Best Male Rock Vocal Performance in 1990.
