The XXV version of "Angels" was released as the lead single, followed by the promotional single "Eternity/The Road to Mandalay" and the new song "Lost" as the second official single. The deluxe edition of the album adds 10 tracks, including four more original songs—"Disco Symphony", "More Than This", "Home Thoughts from Abroad" and "The World and Her Mother".[2] The album debuted at number one on the UK Albums Chart, with Williams breaking the record for most number-one albums among solo acts.[3] The album was supported by the XXV Tour.
