The album's single "Mimi on the Beach" was Siberry's breakthrough hit in her native Canada, and remains one of her most famous songs. Toronto's CFNY was the first radio station in Canada to recognize the song's hit potential. The song's video was also one of the first influential clips on MuchMusic.

Chart positions
gollark: Yes, that is somewhat better.
gollark: "Debate" mostly isn't actual meaningful debate but just showing how virtuous you are for showing how terrible the Other Side is.
gollark: It's much more about tribal signalling than actual policy and doing useful things.
gollark: You can't actually do anything significant to them in most cases, and they monopolize vast amounts of people's attention and communication bandwidth.
gollark: Large-scale politics is *basically* (EDIT: mostly) a horrible infohazard pushed by organizations trying to maximize your engagement (which is often done by generating outrage at the Other Side) and the politicians trying to get you to use your small and indirected power to benefit them.
