The record label were resistant in releasing "Wildflowers" as the lead single due to the word Nazi in the song's chorus, but writer Greg Arnold insisted. The song became the most played Australian single on radio in October 1994.[1]
In a review of the album, Jonathan Lewis from AllMusic said the song is commentary "on the rise of racism in Australia".[2]
