Has Anyone Ever Written ... was not a top 40 hit, it peaked at #60. Personally I think it was a fine choice, ballads can be hits too :-). It would have done better I think if there had been a video, however, probably not better than "Imperial Hotel", that had a decent amout of air play here in DC at the time - oddly enough it was the b-side.

Enchanted probably would have made a better single than Nightbird, (I think DC/101 did play that one too a few times - Enchanted that is) but again, if there had been a video, perhaps it would have done better.

Again, here in DC both Two Kinds Of Love and especially Long Way To Go received a good amount of airplay. LWTG I think in fact peaked at #11 on the Album Oriented Rock chart. TKOL got airplay on 106.7 at the time, it was kind of a rock station back then.
