It features the singles "Where the Stars and Stripes and the Eagle Fly", "Love Like There's No Tomorrow" (a duet with his wife, Thea) and "I'll Take Love over Money". "Where the Stars and Stripes and the Eagle Fly" was Tippin's biggest crossover hit, peaking at #2 on the country charts and #20 on the Billboard Hot 100.
