The album pays tribute to the wit and style of Cole Porter (and indirectly to New York City).[11] The track "Real Men" pointed obliquely to the city's early-1980s gay culture.[12]

"Steppin' Out" earned Grammy Award nominations for Record of the Year and Best Pop Vocal Performance, Male.[13] It reached number 6 on both the UK and the US charts. "Breaking Us in Two" reached number 18 in the US and number 59 in the UK.[11][14]


Reissues


In 1997, A&M released a digitally remastered CD manufactured in Europe. Not only were the tracks remastered, but "Another World" has an extra two bars in the intro. The crossfades for the songs were also re-created.

In 2003, A&M released a deluxe version of the album with a bonus disc consisting of live tracks and demos.
