September's fourth studio album, Love CPR, was released in 2011 and reached number one in the Swedish album chart, becoming her first number-one hit there. The album spawned six singles, including the number-one hit "Mikrofonkåt", "Resuscitate Me", "Me & My Microphone", "Party in My Head" as well as "Hands Up", which was later featured in the American comedy film Last Vegas.
