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." [4]

Reviews

Katie Amos of Drunken Werewolf said; "The pounding four-song set stands strong among the upcoming sun-drenched summer anthems of 2014, demanding to be listened to at full volume with the windows rolled down." [5]

Love is Pop website said "...this is the type of release that should please any pop fan. It’s got plenty of mainstream flair yet it also has the vibe of the sort of synth pop that seems to hang out underground these days." [6]
