"LaLa" was commissioned onto radio on 17 August 2012, one week before the official release.[6] The song peaked at number 30 on the RIANZ New Zealand Singles Chart.[7] The second single was originally meant to be "Bad Talk" after receiving funding for the music video by NZ On Air.
- "The Drug" first received music video funding from NZ On Air for a music video, suggesting that it would be the third single from the album. On 16 November 2012, the song was available from the iTunes Store as a single.[8]
- "Bad Talk" received music video funding from NZ On Air shortly after "Tucan" was released, suggesting that it would be the second single from the album.
