THe album features music by a decidedly high-profile roster: Phil Collins, Peter Frampton, Pete Townshend, and Duran Duran splinter-group Arcadia. A music video for one of the tracks, Sister Sledge's Here to Stay featured players from the Chicago Bears football team along with the band. Several of the tracks in addition to Here to Stay were released as singles and/or became well-known. Pete Townshend's opening track, Life to Life reached No. 39 on the Mainstream Rock charts. Chris Thompson's It's Not Over appeared later the same year, with a slightly longer fade-out, on Thompson's High Cost of Living album and was also released as a single. The tune would be covered by Starship the following year, becoming a Top 10 hit for the group. Music videos were also created for Arcadia's Say the Word and Julian Lennon's live take on Stand by Me. Though not officially released as a single, Phil Collins' We Said Hello, Goodbye (which is actually a remixed version of a B-side for two of Collins' singles from No Jacket Required) received significant radio airplay at the time and became one of his more recognizable tunes. This remixed version is rarely heard today, while the original B-side version is sometimes heard on radio stations.
