Despite this, "Such Great Heights" continued to sell. The single had sold over 25,000 copies by August 2004, and was later certified gold by the Recording Industry Association of America for selling over 500,000 copies, in June 2005. The grassroots approach was also apparent in radio airplay; while it originally peaked at #44 on the Radio and Records Alternative chart in 2004, its airplay was so persistent that it managed to break into the chart again in 2005, peaking that time at #50.
