Super Extra Gravity
Super Extra Gravity is the sixth and final studio album by Swedish band the Cardigans. It was produced by Tore Johansson, who last worked with the Cardigans on Gran [Turismo |Gran Turismo] and later with the band Franz Ferdinand. The album was released in Germany and Ireland on 14 October 2005 and in the UK on 17 October 2005. A Japanese edition was later released. The first single released was "I [Need Some Fine Wine and You, You Need to Be Nicer]". The second single was "Don't Blame Your Daughter ". It was said that "Godspell"—the lyrics of which reference a conservative religious mentality common to the band's hometown of Jönköping—was to be the third single, but plans for its release fell through.
Singles
- The band planned to release "Don't Blame Your Daughter " in the UK in April 2006, but this was cancelled because of the poor performance of the album and first single there. Instead, a two-track digital single was released on iTunes in the UK.
- Promos were sent to radio in Europe for "Godspell" as a third single from the album, but a full commercial release never happened.
