"Big Deal" was the album's sole release to country radio, where it reached number six on the US Hot Country Songs chart and number three on the Canada RPM Country Tracks. A cover of the Willie Nelson song made famous by Patsy Cline, "Crazy", was released exclusively in the United Kingdom, where it reached the top forty of the UK Singles Chart. Commercially, the album was a hit, debuting atop the Top Country Albums chart and peaked at number 8 on the Billboard 200. It has been certified Platinum by the RIAA for sales of one million copies in the United States.
