Following a long time away from the pop scene, a new single called "Beautiful Morning" was serviced to radio in Europe in July 2002.
 Polydor Records reported that it was their fastest-added track to radio playlists of the year, and it went on peak at No.
38 in Germany and No.
14 in Sweden upon its commercial release in September.

After several delays, Ace of Base finally released their fourth studio album, Da Capo, on September 30, 2002, in Europe, and in Japan through Toshiba EMI with a different cover and three bonus tracks.
 The album received only a soft release in the United Kingdom and was not released in the Americas.
 The title comes from the musical term da capo, which translates as "back to the beginning", chosen as the sound of the album was seen as a return to the group's early blend of reggae and europop.

Although the album charted across much of Europe, it was not as successful as previous releases.
Only Jenny and Ulf went on a promotional tour of Sweden, Denmark, Norway, Finland, Germany, Poland and Austria.
Jonas chose to forego promotional activities because "it was better to be two then" and led to "less questions" about Linn's lack of participation.
Linn attended only one performance in Germany, which was her last public appearance.

"The Juvenile" was selected as the album's second single in Germany, and was used for a Christmas campaign by TV channel RTL.
 The song was a re-written version of a track originally submitted for the James Bond movie GoldenEye in 1995.
 However, Clive Davis persuaded the band that it was not the best move for the band at the time so they withdrew it from consideration.
 In Scandinavia, Edel-Mega released  "Unspeakable" as the second single, but its poor chart performance ended the promotion of the album prematurely.
