A disagreement with Virgin Records stifled future development outside Australia where they released popular albums and achieved two more top twenty singles with " I Ain't Gonna Eat Out My Heart Anymore " No. 19 in 1992 and " I'm Jealous " No. 14 in 1995.

It included four new songs, three of which would later appear on the Australian version of the album, and new recordings of the classics " I Ain't The One ", " Can't Shake It ", " Who Rings The Bell ", " City Out of Control " and " Am I Ever Gonna See Your Face Again ", none of which was made available in Australia.
