"The Simple Things (Something Emotional)" is the third single from Vanessa Amorosi's Gold album Somewhere in the Real World. It was released to radio on 4 August with a new radio edit and two dance mixes, one of which was produced by Australian DJ mrTimothy. The single was released in Australia on 20 September 2008. It debuted at #39 on the ARIA Charts. Due to promotion in Australia, the song was sung on the Australian Idol verdict show on Monday 29 September 2008.
Vanessa Amorosi gave a little bit more than the other acts who appeared on the Seven Network's telethon (4 and 5 October 2008) in Perth. She donated her song "The Simple Things (Something Emotional)" to use for promo, and did an in-store signing. Trax Music stores donated half of the price of her single for sales over the weekend.
