Oh No (album)

‎Track listing ← Previous revision Revision as of 00:04, 25 June 2016 Line 84: Line 84:   }}   }}     − :"9027 km" is a 35-minute track on the US version of the album that is not included on the cover sleeve. It is a low-grade recording of frontman Damian Kulash's sleeping girlfriend. After parting with the label, Kulash would later admit that was a hasty recording that he made before submitting the final album to the record label. The track was added to pad out the CD and thereby prevent their label from using the extra space to add [[Digital rights management|DRM]] software, which would limit transfer of the music from the CD.<ref>http://www.newburycomics.com/rel/v2_viewupc.php?storenr=103&upc=72435788002</ref> Kulash justified the inclusion of this track to the label as an old "love note" recording sent from his girlfriend while he was away recording the album and that it would have to be included in its entirety as his artistic license. He later reported that the label could have easily uncovered the truth - that the track was a hasty addition - because there were faint sounds of fireworks in the background of the recording, dating the recording to the 4th of July just before it was submitted. The name of the track is based on the distance between Los Angeles, California and Malmö, Sweden (9027 kilometers), where Kulash and his girlfriend were respectively based during the production of the album. <ref>{{Citation|title = https://youtube.com/devicesupport|url = https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UKY3scPIMd8&feature=youtube_gdata_player|date = 2015-04-17|accessdate = 2015-05-29}}</ref> + :"9027 km" is a 35-minute track on the US version of the album that is not included on the cover sleeve.
