Nothing Lasts Forever was exclusively released in Japan, being released 9 months after their debut studio album Final Destination. Nothing Lasts Forever would end up entering and debuting at number 63 on the Oricon Albums Chart, while staying on the charts for the following three weeks.

While not a single, "We're Not Alone" would end up being selected as the opening theme for the anime, Rainbow: Nisha Rokubō no Shichinin.[5]
