It appears on Massive Attack's fourth full-length album, 100th Window, and was released as the first single on 24 February 2003.
The single reached number 15 on the UK Singles Chart, number 19 in Greece, number 22 in Italy, and number 46 in Ireland. "Special Cases" is the group's only song to chart in Canada, where it reached number 25 on the Canadian Singles Chart.
