"No Promises" was Ward's second number one single in the Republic of Ireland. The single was the UK's sixteenth best selling single of 2006.[1] Although neither the album nor the single have been released in Brazil, the song received expressive airplays on adult-pop oriented radios, such as Antena 1 and Alpha FM, two of the most listened radios in the country, especially by a high culture public. It has sold over 200,000 copies in the UK.[citation needed]
