About the album[]
The album is the soundtrack to the American reality television series that premiered on the Bravo cable television network. The series was created by openly gay executive producers David Collins and Michael Williams along with their straight producing partner David Metzler. The album reached number one on the electronic music chart, number two on the soundtrack charts and the top 40 on the Billboard 200 album chart. Included is "Sunrise" by Duran Duran, featured on this album over 6 months before the single and Astronaut was released.
In Australia, the soundtrack was released for the Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras and the popularity of the show in Australia led to the soundtrack reaching the top 10 of the Australian album chart on March 8, 2004. It was certified gold in Australia in March 2004. The song "Superstar" by Jamelia from the soundtrack also went to number one on the Australian singles charts in the same week, and the theme song of the show, "All Things (Just Keep Getting Better)" by Widelife, went to the top 20 that same month.
