Outside the United Kingdom, "I Breathe Again" peaked at number nine in Hungary and number 16 in Ireland.
A music video for the song was released to promote the single. Some scenes in which he appears naked surprised some fans. On his official website he said: "I had boxers on for part of it but in some of the camera angles you could see them. The director asked if I'd go starkers for some of the shots and I agreed. I wasn't getting off the floor for anything after that. I dread to think where the off-shoots went. They're probably with one of those When They Were Famous film companies!"
