As Day Follows Night

In regards to the album's lyrical themes, Blasko told Rolling Stone Australia magazine: "The basis is definitely my life, but I like to take it into a heightened reality. I like the idea of 'the character' on the record. I like musicals, I like it to be fancy."{{cite web|url=http://jasontreuen.wordpress.com/2009/09/01/rolling-stone-sarah-blasko-interview/|title=Out Here on My Own|work=Rolling Stone Australia|author=Jason Treuen|accessdate=2009-09-02}}
