Goodrem co-wrote all but one of the songs on the album, which was produced by Guy Chambers with Richard Flack and Steve Power.

[8] Songs kept going around in her head: harmonies, melodies, lyrics, many deeper and darker than those that were on her debut album, Innocent Eyes.

[8] "Extraordinary Day" is about the day (8 July 2003) when she was diagnosed with Hodgkin's lymphoma,[8] "The Last Night On Earth" is a song about death and love, "The Analyst" tells the story of the hours of self-analysis she dealt with,[8] "Be Strong" is an encouraging call for confidence and "Mistaken Identity" is Goodrem stating for the record where her head was at.

[8] "In "Mistaken Identity" I sing 'I played the role of the nice girl next door who gets cut like a knife', I mention 'emotional suicide' in "Electric Storm": there's some intense lyrics in there.

[9] The music video was directed by Nigel Dick and made its premier to television on 1 October, [2004, right after the Australian soap opera Neighbours.

[10] Goodrem performed the song live for the first time on 17 October 2004 at the eighteenth Annual ARIA Awards[11] and that same night "Out of the Blue" made its debut in the charts at number-one, Goodrem's sixth consecutive number-one single in Australia.

[21] The music video for the song was directed by Michael Spiccia, released on 13 December 2004[22] and was based on the 1984 film The NeverEnding Story.

[24] It became one of Goodrem's biggest hits, making it her seventh number-one single in Australia, her first in Ireland, and her fifth top ten hit in the UK,[25] and was nominated for an ARIA Award in 2005 for "Highest Selling Single" but lost to "The Prayer" by Anthony Callea.

[18] "A Little Too Late" was the fourth song released from the album on 30 May 2005 and the music video was directed by MTV award-winner Anthony Rose and was premiered 2 May 2005 on the Channel Ten news.
