We all sing and we all dance. No one's telling us what to do. We're all different because we're just ourselves – and that's the way it should be."[16]

The band decided that "Ego" would be the final single from their second studio album. "Ego" charted at number-nine and number-ten on the UK and Irish Singles Charts and later gained a Silver certification by the BPI.[4]Despite being one of the band's lowest chart peaking singles, it actually became one of the band's best selling singles.

The album was also said to be a laid-back electro poppy offering that recalls the more subdued moments from their debut album."[85] Talking about the album and the single "Ego"; We were searching for sounds and found the basic hook sound that’s in the verse and carries all the way through.
