Although coming out at the decline of the glam metal scene in the U.S., the release was a commercial success, prompting additional touring by the group.

The members, however, also made some notable changes in comparison to that, particularly given the new emphasis on both progressive rock elements and power ballads.

At least two more songs were recorded during the In the Heart of the Young sessions, but "All I Ever Wanted" and "Never" did not make it to the final album in America, because the producer Beau Hill found them too heavy for the Winger sound.

All tracks are written by Kip Winger and Reb Beach (except where noted)^ Shipments figures based on certification alone.

The videos for "Can't Get Enuff" and "Miles Away" were made available on a 1990 VHS release entitled In the Heart of the Young, Vol.
