Finally Out of P.E. is the debut album of American singer and actress Brie Larson. The album features 13 tracks, some of which were co-written by Larson, and focuses on the ups and down of being a teenager.
In an interview, she said
"I think that I write about stuff that others don't write about. I don't have a bunch of love songs cause I don't really have much boy experience. I just write about what I am actually going through in my real life. That's where the title from my album comes from - Finally out of P.E. My P.E. teacher didn't like me at all, which was hard to deal with cause I was usually such a teachers' pet. So when I found out I got my record deal, I was like, 'Yes, I'm finally out of P.E.'"[2]
Due to many delays in release dates, the album was expected to be released in the fall 2004, but just shipped in the fall of 2005, after more than 6 release date changes; and lack of promotion from record label, the album only sold 4,000 copies in the United States.
Some digital releases of the album also includes "Go Your Own Way", a bonus track featured in the album's original tracklist but which was later replaced by "Hope Has Wings". The original tracklist also did not included "Life After You", song that was recorded after the album was already done, fact that made the album get pushed back.
