Xtra is the fourth extended play by Danish singer-songwriter Oh Land. It is her first release written entirely in Danish, and was distributed digitally on 11 November 2022 through Tusk or Tooth Records and Capitol Records Denmark. All four of the project's songs are written by the singer and her boyfriend, Adnan Zukanovic. The two, along with William Gerdes and Vasco, are the four producers of the EP.

Xtra was preceded in release by its two singles, "Sådan Ligger Landet" and "Bad Timing". The former song also appears on the Danish television series Min sang til Danmark.

Background and release

Xtra was written entirely in Oh Land's native Danish, becoming her first project to do so. In a 2023 interview with B.T., she explained that ultimately the songs decide what language she writes in, not herself.[1] She clarified, however, her releases in 2023 would be performed in English.[2] The EP was preceded in release by its two singles, "Sådan Ligger Landet" and "Bad Timing". The former was the first song unveiled from Xtra, and was digitally distributed on 9 September 2022.[3] It served as her entry on the Danish television series Min sang til Danmark, where fifteen Danish musicians competed to create an original song to Denmark; she appeared in the series' fourth episode alongside Ankerstjerne and Mekdes.[4] The song's accompanying music video was released two days later.[5] "Bad Timing" was released on 21 October 2022.[6]

Music and lyrics

TecoApple described "Bad Timing" as a danceable electropop song with fluttering synths. Oh Land sings the song's verses in Danish but repeats the line "Bad timing" in English.[2]
