After the release of the "Never Ever" single the album stormed up the charts, even though it never reached a #1 position, since the sales were over a long period, it established All Saints as one of the most successful and bestselling girl groups ranking second to the Spice Girls in the UK and Europe.

Six songs have been released from the album as singles: Never Ever, Bootie Call, I Know Where It's At, Under The Bridge, Lady Marmalade, War Of Nerves and If You Want To Party (I Found Lovin'), which was originally recorded when the group were All Saints 1.9.7.5. In the United Kingdom "Under The Bridge and Lady Marmalade" was released as a double A-side.

The CD was re-released with a new tracklist after the success of "Never Ever" with the Nice Hat Remix was replaced by the All Star Remix of "Never Ever", "Let's Get Started" renamed to "If You Want To Party (I Found Lovin')" and "Beg" and "Trapped" were re-edited and re-mastered.
