"Just Missed the Train", which also appears on Brisebois' second album Portable Life (albeit in a different version), has been covered by several artists, including Ringo Sheena, Trine Rein, Maarja, Kelly Clarkson and Carly Hennessy.
Brisebois cited her influences for this album as David Bowie, The Cure, Prefab Sprout, Blondie, The Beatles and in particular John Lennon. She opted for low-key promotion of the album, saying she would "rather have people discover it and like it on their own rather than pushing... I don't want to use any gimmicks to make my music career a success."[2]
