Ann and Nancy Wilson drew from their own lives and personal experiences as inspiration for the album. "Dear Old America" comes from memories of a military household and is written from the point of view of their father, a Marine Corps officer, returning from war. "Rock Deep (Vancouver)" hearkens back to the city where Dreamboat Annie was written and "Walkin' Good" (a duet with Vancouver resident Sarah McLachlan) captures the joy of finding new life in a new love.

Fanatic debuted at number 24 on the Billboard 200, selling 16,000 copies in its first week.[7] The album also reached number 12 on Billboard's Top Rock Albums chart. The song "Fanatic" peaked at number 24 on Billboard's Heritage Rock chart.[8]
