A cover of the Jackson 5's "I'll Be There", was released as a single on 23 September 1991, with "Who Cares" as the B-side. This was the Chantoozies' final release during their original run. A cover of The Angels' "My Boyfriend's Back" was also included on the soundtrack to the 1990 film The Crossing.

The album would later be reissued with a modified tracklist, where "Mystery" and "Baby Blue" were removed and replaced by "Wanna Be Up" and "Kiss and Tell" from the debut album. Digital reissues of the album, however, contain the original tracklist.[2]
