The album was such a success that a fifth song on the album, "Mary Cristo", also received heavy radio airplay in Brazil around Christmas 2003. "Já Sei Namorar" achieved some chart success in some European territories.

According to ABPD, the album was one of the 20 best-sold albums in Brazil in 2003.[3]
