Singles

"In My Pocket"

The first single released from the album was "In My Pocket", which was released in the spring of 2001. The single wasn't very successful on the USA Charts, where it peaked only at #102. However it was far more successful in Australia and Asia.

"Crush"

The follow-up single, "Crush", became an even more disappointing single in chart success is concerned. However, the "Crush" video was very popular on MTV's TRL where it became her first number 1 video. However the single wasn't well-received. It, like other Moore singles, were more successful in Australia and Asia.

"Cry"

The final single from the album was given limited release and was also available on the A Walk to Remember soundtrack. Though the song went on to be a favorite of Moore's, the single only faired a little better than "Crush"; the single never became a huge US hit and unlike previous singles, "Cry" wasn't released in Australia. It did, meanwhile, become a number one hit in the Philippines. It became the year end number one in Myx and most of radio stations

"17/Saturate Me"

"17" and "Saturate Me" was also released as a double single in Asia where it gained minor success.
