It became the #1 Album Rock Song of 1994, and won a Billboard award for Top Rock Track.[1] The song also reached the top of the Album Rock Tracks for eight weeks. The song then went on to peak at #11 on the Billboard Hot 100 for one week.[2] VH1 would later rank "Shine" at #42 on their list of the "100 Greatest Songs of the '90s."
