Counting Down Days

Japanese edition of third album from the antipodean beauty believes her new disc Counting Down the Days completely encapsulates her upbeat mood, which she attributes to the Silverchair front man whom she married in 2003 after a four-year courtship. The three-year recording session is in marked contrast to her second album, White Lilies Island, which was released in 2001 and heavily influenced by the deep depression she was suffering from. She says, "My new album, which Dan and I worked on together, is proof that I'm in a good place. "The songs refer to Dan because he's been at the forefront of my mind during the three-year recording process. And this is evidence of how happy I've been - and remain. It's all uplifting music." Includes the first single, 'Shiver'. Sony/BMG. 2005.
