[edit] About the album
For this album Moore collaborated with producer John Alagia (Dave Matthews Band, Liz Phair) and has written material for the first time: she wrote/co-wrote songs with Rachael Yamagata, Chantal Kreviazuk, Michelle Branch, Lori McKenna and indie pop-folk duo The Weepies, all chronicled in a promotional video available for viewing on her official website. This is the first album that Moore co-wrote entirely. She wrote the songs about everything including her break up with ex-boyfriend Andy Roddick.[citation needed] This is her first full studio album in four years, and her first full album of entirely original material since 2001's self-titled album. "Extraordinary", one of the tracks she co-wrote with The Weepies, was premiered via her MySpace profile on January 29, 2007. Moore has also put another song on her MySpace profile called "Nothing That You Are". The new track premiered on February 9, 2007.
On March 14, 2007, on the opening of Moore's official website, yet another song was released. "All Good Things" plays on her website whenever you open it.
Because a video for "Extraordinary" has been made, it is highly likely that this will be her first single. This song is also used on the trailer for the Garry Marshall film Georgia Rule, starring Felicity Huffman, Lindsay Lohan and Jane Fonda.
