The album produced Thom's first number-one single—"I Wish I Was a Punk Rocker (With Flowers in My Hair)"—on the UK Singles Chart, the Irish Singles Chart, and Australia's ARIA Singles Chart. In the latter country, the song spent the longest period at number-one in 2006 (10 weeks) and became the country's highest-selling single for 2006. The album also generated another two singles, but they both failed to replicate the success of the first single. Smile... It Confuses People was certified platinum by BPI selling three hundred thousand copies around the UK.
