The single went double-platinum in the UK, and was voted 2002's The Record of the Year by ITV viewers.

This was followed by another number-one single, "Anyone of Us (Stupid Mistake)".

His third single, a double A-side "Suspicious Minds"/"The Long and Winding Road", a duet with Pop Idol winner Will Young, also reached number one.
