Their second single, "Fully Alive", hit radio stations on June 6, 2006. Their third and highest charting single is "All Around Me". According to Rolling Stone Magazine, the band along with Paramore, are the 2008 breakout bands.

The DVD has exlusive interviews with Flyleaf and music videos of "All Around Me", "I'm So Sick" and "Fully Alive". The CD/DVD version also came with a free ringtone of "All Around Me" along with a locker poster. Flyleaf sold over 13,000 copies of the Special Edition CD/DVD in the first week. They jumped 59 spots on the Billboard Top 200 chart up to #62. In the second week of sales for the Special Edition CD/DVD, Flyleaf sold over 10,100 copies.
