The Last One to Know, as was typical for Reba McEntire by now, yielded two #1 hits on the Billboard country charts: the title song The Last One to Know and Love Will Find Its Way to You. The album just barely missed being her third consecutive #1 country album though, stalling out at #3. It was also her first album to chart on the Billboard 200. Another song, Just Across the Rio Grande was also covered by Holly Dunn the following year in Across the Rio Grande.
