Album information


When James Morrison was in New Zealand, and appeared on the New Zealand Idol show, the two finalists asked Morrison about the meaning behind the song "You Give Me Something", and Morrison said that it was intended to be a 'harsh love song', and the lyrics mean that the protagonist of the song does not love the person as much as she loves him, but is willing to give the relationship a try.

Several of the album's songs were featured in TV shows. The album's lead single, "You Give Me Something", appeared in an episode of American television series Ugly Betty, an episode of Doctor Who, and a promo for FX. The song "This Boy" appeared in an episode of the CW show One Tree Hill (Series 4, Episode 17). The bonus track "Better Man" was played in an episode of What About Brian and in an episode of Grey's Anatomy.
