Starsailor are one of those bands who have had more Top 40 hits than you might think. They've had 10 in total and this was number 7 for them. It was the follow up to "Silence Is Easy" which was their highest charting single to date.
The key difference here is that "Silence Is Easy" came before the album of the same name was released whereas this record came after said album was released. Given that album made number 2 in the album charts a lot of people would have already got the album.
They never got any higher than number 22 with their final 3 Top 40 hits which came at a time when indie music was getting more and more popular. Perhaps they peaked too soon.
