The Some People's Lives album became one of the biggest commercial successes of Midler's musical career, peaking at No. 6 in the US and No. 5 in the UK and it was later awarded double platinum by the RIAA for sales of over two million copies in the US alone. It has sold 7 million copies world wide. Moonlight Dancing, Night and Day and The Gift of Love were all issued as singles, but the biggest hit that the album produced was undoubtedly Midler's interpretation of Julie Gold's anthem of universal brotherhood From a Distance featuring The Radio Choir of New Hope Church, paradoxically released shortly before the breakout of the first Persian Gulf War. The single reached No. 2 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, No. 1 on the Adult Contemporary chart and No. 6 in the UK and was later certified platinum in the US, making it Midler's second million-seller within the space of two years.
