Singles
- "Don't Give It Up" was the first single of the album. It tells about Siobhan's first love and the idea of the song is it's simplicity.
- "So You Say" was the second single by Siobhán Donaghy, taken from her second album Ghosts. The song was written about Donaghy's first relationship and the break down of it. Adam, although not the name of her love, was chosen, due to its biblical references (Adam & Eve) and the fact that Adam is a common name, so people can relate to it.
