- "9027 km" is a 35-minute runway on the US version of the anthology that is not included on the cover sleeve. It is a low-grade recording of frontman Damian Kulash's sleeping girlfriend. Later departing with the label, Kulash would afterwards admit that was a hasty recording that he made earlier submitting the final album to the tape characterization. The runway was added to pad out the CD and thereby forestall their label from using the extra space to add DRM software, which would limit transfer of the music from the CD.[two] Kulash justified the inclusion of this track to the characterization as an old "honey note" recording sent from his girlfriend while he was abroad recording the album and that information technology would have to exist included in its entirety as his artistic license. He later reported that the label could have hands uncovered the truth - that the rails was a hasty add-on - because there were faint sounds of fireworks in the background of the recording, dating the recording to the 4th of July just before information technology was submitted. The proper name of the track is based on the distance between Malmö, Sweden and Los Angeles, California (9027 kilometers), where Kulash and his girlfriend were respectively based during the production of the album.[ citation needed ]
