A Short Album About Love is the fifth album by The Divine Comedy, released in 1997.
All songs written by Neil Hannon except where stated.
The tracks which are starred are bonus tracks which are on certain pressings of the album.
"Everybody Knows (Except You)" was released as a single on three separate CDs, each one featuring an extra three live tracks. It became one of the band's biggest hits, reaching number fourteen in the UK charts.
The middle eight of "In Pursuit Of Happiness" was subsequently adopted as the theme for the TV series Tomorrow's World. The original version was used for one season of the show, with a specially-recorded version being substituted thereafter.
