The pair had previously released the duet to radio, which peaked at Number one on Canadian charts, number two on U.S. Country charts and reached number nine on the Billboard Hot 100. Four days prior to the release, Travis appeared on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno to perform the album's single "Turn It Around" as well as his signature song, "Forever and Ever, Amen."
