"Gained the World" is the second single released from Morcheeba's sixth studio album Dive Deep. It was digitally released on 28 April 2008,[1] while it was physically released in the United Kingdom on 26 May 2008.[2] The song features "bittersweet" vocals of French singer Manda Zamolo.
The album producer Paul Godfrey posted his opinion about song on Morcheeba's official website, writing:
IndieLondon noted that "Gained the World" is "a melody-laden beauty that introduces the listener to the soothing tones of French vocalist Manda for the first time."[3]
The animated music video was directed by Joel Trussell, an American artist who also made the video for "Enjoy the Ride".
The single was released as an EP containing two remixes and "Priceless" as a B-side that was not included on the album. "Priceless" features performance by Bootie Brown of Pharcyde with Merry Clayton on backing vocals and lead vocals of Judie Tzuke.
