Worlds Apart (Betty Who EP)
album by Betty Who
Worlds Apart is the third extended play and first compilation of tracks recorded by Australian-American singer-songwriter Betty Who. The extended play was released in the United Kingdom on 23 June 2014. It was her first release in the United Kingdom. It was released to coincide with Who's "The Hopeless Romantic Tour" which included dates in United Kingdom and the United States throughout May and June 2014.
It contains tracks from Who's previous extended plays, The Movement (2013) and Slow Dancing (2014).
In an interview with Wonderland Magazine, Who explained the title: "Worlds Apart is actually a lyric from the song "Heartbreak Dream"[:] 'In the bridge when you hold me, it feels like you don’t know me, we are worlds apart.' I always like highlighting lyrics in all my songs. It feels like there is at least one lyric that always sneaks by you that you may not pay attention to had it not been highlighted to you initially."

Attribution, date and provenance are strongest when supported by the original work, a catalogue record and documented transmission. The source revision retrieved here is dated Sep 24, 2025. The linked authority identifier is Q28429549. The first chronological checks are 2014 and 2013.
Titles can refer to several editions, objects or performances, making precise identification essential before interpretation. The source lead contains qualifying language; that uncertainty should survive quotation, summary and reuse. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
