The album has since been certified 6-time platinum in the U.S. Men at Work released two more albums "Cargo" (certified 3-times platinum) and "Two Hearts" (certified gold). The band disbanded in 1985 but would reform in 1996.

After the initial break up, Hay begin performing solo. To this date, he's released 10 solo albums. And while they have not reached the same success as Men at Work, his work has been met with critical acclaim and he continues to work on both solo and group albums.
