" both peaked at number ten on the ARIA Singles Chart and were each certified gold. "Walkaway Lover" debuted at number fifty and eventually peaked at number thirty-five, spending a total of eleven weeks in the charts. The single was issued to coincide with the much anticipated release of the album Intimate.
