"Brand New Chick" achieved moderate commercial success in Canada – it was certified Platinum by Music Canada and reached number 16 on the "Billboard" Canadian Hot 100. The song was a hit in dance venues, reaching number three on the US "Billboard" Hot Dance Club Songs chart as well as 24 on the now-defunct Global Dance Songs survey. At the 2012 Juno Awards, the track was nominated for Dance Recording of the Year but lost out to "Hello" by Martin Solveig and Dragonette.
