"Wait" became the album's lead single. Although it did not chart as well as the band's debut single "Get Away" from their Letting Go album, "Wait" is considered a breakthrough hit for the band and helped launch them into further mainstream success. It was featured on various soundtracks and made appearances in other media as well. Its music video was also rather successful.
Earshot appeared on Headbangers Ball in promotion of Two. In early 2005, they returned from the road in support of their second release and left their record label.
