Big Love reached the top ten list in several countries. To achieve that, the song needed not only the fans but the masses in general (it needed single sales and radio airplay; nowadays the songs need downloads and streaming, too).
Back in 1987, I wonder how much did the masses find out about Lindsey's departure during the song momentum in radios. There was no internet, social networks. Yes the DJs may have commented about it, and it sure mattered to fans, but did it matter enough to the masses? Did they learn about all the story behind Lindsey departure? I'm not so sure about it.
