Early pressings of the album featured original members Betty LeBron, Margie Fernandez, and Mari Fernandez on the front cover. Later pressings of the album featured Sheila Vega on the front cover, who replaced Mari Fernandez. The album's vocals, however, were not rerecorded after the personnel change.
The French house duo, Together, sampled Sweet Sensation's "Sincerely Yours" for their 2000 single, "Together".
