The album was released in Asia on 9 November 2001 and M2M toured the Philippines in December to promote it . To promote the album M2M filmed an appearance on the episode " 100 Light Years from Home " of the TV show '' Dawson 's Creek '' in late February 2002 . The album was released in the US on 26 February 2002 and M2M were planning to promote the album and its lead single , " Everything " , starting in early March , however , they were told by Atlantic Records that all promotion in the US had been put on hold until their appearance on '' Dawson 's Creek '' had aired . Frustrated , M2M returned to Norway after only one week in the US . They spent three days promoting the album in Norway , four days in Spain , one day in the UK , three days in Italy , two days in Germany , two days in Sweden , one day in Denmark and one day in Finland . M2M were disappointed with the amount of time they were given to promote the album in Europe , as ideally they would have liked to spend two weeks promoting the album in the UK alone . '' Verdens Gang '' attributed the lacklustre promotion of the album to Atlantic 's decision to save money following the drop in record sales in the wake of the September 11 attacks . Atlantic dropped many of their artists following the attacks , and while they kept M2M , the company put little money into promoting their album . " 100 Light Years from Home " aired on April 17 in the US , and M2M were scheduled to recommence promoting the single and album in the US in May , before moving onto Mexico , Australia and Japan . The album was released in Australia on 29 April ; M2M arrived in Australia in mid May . They were selected as the opening act for Jewel 's US This Way tour , which commenced on 14 June . In mid July , M2M were removed as the opening act by Atlantic , who cited disappointing sales of '' The Big Room '' , which at that time had only sold around 100,000 units in the US . Shocked and disappointed by the decision , M2M returned to Norway . The duo broke up later that year , with both Raven and Larsen pursuing solo careers
