The album was re released twice in 2004 under new titles "'Cherry Pie all the Hitz 'n' More" and the import version "Most Wanted" with slightly different track lists to the original.

The album features new versions of Warrant's biggest hit singles Heaven which peaked at number 2 on The Billboard Hot 100 and Cherry Pie which peaked at #10.[2] The re-recorded "Heaven" and "Cherry Pie" were released as promo and later iTunes singles[3] and were also released on several mixed compilation albums. In 2004 Jani Lane re-recorded acoustic versions of "Cherry Pie" and "Heaven" which featured on the "VH1 Classic Metal Mania: Stripped" compilations.

"Heaven" was also used in Tool Academy's series finale, and was covered by American punk band New Found Glory on the compilation album Punk Goes Metal.
