Example released his debut studio album What We Made in 2007. It peaked at number 125 in the UK Albums Chart. His second studio album, Won't Go Quietly, was released three years later. It peaked at number four of the same chart and was certified as Gold by the British Phonographic Industry (BPI). Five singles were released from it, and were mild-received in diverse world charts. The next year, Example released Playing in the Shadows, which topped the UK Albums Chart, and included the singles "Changed the Way You Kiss Me" and "Stay Awake", among others.
