The second single "The Bumper of My SUV" was released on November 8, 2004. It received attention due to Wright performing the song in Iraq. When originally released, it peaked at number 54. It would be discovered that members of Wright's fan club were contacting country radio stations, posing as family or friends of military members when requesting the single.^[1] This would go on to lead both the single to be re-released and Wright firing the club's leader.^[2] This re-issue did help the single, reaching a peak of number 35. The third single "The River" was first released on May 24, 2005, to CMT and June 18, 2005, to GAC.^[3][4] Although a release to radio was planned following the single's video release, it was never commissioned.^[5] A cover of Chuck Berry's "C'est La Vie (You Never Can Tell)" would be released on October 31, 2005, as the fourth and final single.^[6] It failed to enter any charts.
