The song helped propel Carlile's album of the same name to #58 on the Billboard Top 200 and drew comparisons to Janis Joplin. Her follow-up work has always drawn critical acclaim, but that hasn't yet translated to further success on the singles chart. Carlile's albums have fared better, her last two breaking the top 10.

"The Story" by Brandi Carlile
It's a rather simple love song, but the powerhouse delivery by singer/songwriter Brandi Carlile takes this song to new heights. "The Story" is Carlile's only charting single to date, and one of the few songs she's recorded that she didn't write (the song was written by her bassist, Phil Hanseroth). Despite being heavily featured on the hit TV show Grey's Anatomy and other media venues, "The Story" concluded at #75 in 2007.
