The title would have you believe that Lyttelton's grizzled wandering folkie Delaney Davidson has left his natural habitat of the shadows to emerge blinking into the sun. It suggests hope and bright optimism. It proves his humour remains pitch black.
Opening with the eerie Strange I Know, the intent of the album is set. The song sounds exactly like the onset of a cold winter's night. "I try to let it all go," Davidson pleads over a gentle strum and haunting piano lines.
This fades into the chipper Such a Loser, which can't help but remind of the Beatles great I'm a Loser, in both its juxtaposition of words and music and bouncy moptop style rock 'n' roll.
Neil Finn shows up on the following track, the scuzzy, superb, What Am I Doing Wrong, but I have no idea where... the vocals on this one are wonderfully distorted and pleasingly sound like they've been pulled scratching and clawing out of the singers throats. Perhaps he's whistling the song's ridiculously catchy hook.
