I was talking to Laura about the shortlist I was looking at covering and she asked if I had thought of doing a Josh Pyke song. I love that guy so I dived into all Josh Pyke music and chose that song because for me it imbues that Australian vibe, josh Pyke’s such a storyteller, Josh Pyke creates these beautiful little worlds.

Three years after leaving the programme, she began a singing career, with the cover and hit "Torn". Her subsequent album, Left of the Middle, sold 7 million copies worldwide. Further releases, White Lilies Island and Counting Down the Days, did not sell as well, although the latter became number one in the UK. In 2007 she made Glorious: The Singles 97–07, a hits compilation featuring the single "Glorious", which peaked at 23 in the UK singles chart. Since 1997 Imbruglia has sold 10 million album copies. She co-starred in the 2003 film Johnny English and was leading actress in the 2009 film Closed for Winter. On 3 December 2014, Imbruglia announced plans to release a newly recorded album of songs originally performed by male artists. The album, Male, her first since 2009's Come To Life, was released in July 2015, and will be followed by an album of original material.
