When Don’t Ask it reinvented Arena in Australian audiences’ eyes, and spawned the hits Chains, Sorrento Moon and Wasn’t It Good.

The impact of lead single Chains was massive, propelling Arena onto the global stage.

Chains has today been selected as one of ten extraordinary audio recordings illustrating Australia’s cultural and political life and environment added to the National Film & Sound Archive’s unique Sounds of Australia collection.

The archive noted that Chains became a career-defining moment for Tina upon its release in August 1994. The song reached No. 4 on the Australian charts, No. 6 in the UK, No. 20 in Canada, and No. 38 in the USA, cementing her place on the global stage.
