It is the only Mike + The Mechanics album to date with only one lead vocalist and the last to feature Paul Carrack.

The album was released in the UK as a standalone single CD and as a limited edition CD/DVD combo.

The limited edition 2-disc set comprises the 9-track CD album plus a 10-track bonus PAL formatted DVD featuring a video for each song plus long and short versions of "One Left Standing".

The album was eventually released in North America by Rhino Records in September 2005 as a single CD only.

Mike Rutherford later called the album "dodgy", elaborating that "I look back at it and you know... we made the record, I didn't think too much about it, but later – I probably should not have done it.
