Dizzy Up the Girl is the 6th album by Goo Goo Dolls, released in 1998 on Warner Bros. In most parts of the world, this is their most successful album to date, selling over 3 million copies (3x platinum certified). The success of Dizzy Up the Girl can arguably be attributed to the power ballad "Iris," the Goo Goo Dolls biggest hit to date. "Iris" immediately reached #1 on the Hot 100 Airplay chart and stayed on top for an amazing 18 weeks, setting a record that still stands today. The song also reached #1 on the Billboard Modern Rock chart and the Mainstream Rock Tracks chart, along with several other charts in the U.S and U.K, and included 3 Grammy nominations. The song has been covered by several mainstream artists, in particular Avril Lavigne, New Found Glory and Ronan Keating.
In addition to the huge success of "Iris," Dizzy Up the Girl featured four additional top ten singles, with the songs "Slide," "Broadway," "Black Balloon", and "Dizzy." Along with top ten single status, music videos for all five songs reached VH1's Top 20 Music Videos chart upon release.
