The lead single from the album, the title track, was a novelty song that incorporated elements of early 1990s music.[5] It was sent to pop radio stations in August 2001, reaching number 44 on the Radio & Records pop chart the following month.[11] It was featured on the soundtrack to the film Big Fat Liar and received play on MTV, being added to rotation the week ending August 19, 2001.[12][3] The track was also included on Now That's What I Call Music! 8.[13]
Internationally, it entered the UK Singles Chart in 2002, spending two weeks on the chart and peaking at number 77.[2] In the Netherlands, it became a top 20 hit on both the Dutch Top 40 and Dutch Single Top 100.[14][15] Jones's next single, "I Belong", became another top 40 hit in the Netherlands.[16][15] He appeared on the cover of the October 12, 2002, issue of Hitkrant , a Dutch music magazine, which that month also hosted a contest to win a meet-and-greet or DVD single of "I Belong".[17]
