[edit] Chart performance
When the Lighthouse Family originally released "Lifted", they only reached to #61 in the UK Singles Chart.

After heavy promotion, they reached to #4 and were in the UK singles Chart for 10 weeks.
"Lifted" also reached the Austria Singles Chart and peaked at #36. It also reached #85 in the Dutch Singles Chart.
