This album is definitely worth a listen. Not only is it musically interesting and (more importantly) fun, it clearly shows the importance of humility. The title refers to us, comparing us to God as nightlights to the sun.
Nearly every song on the album has some reference to his struggle to be humble as a successful musician.
Here are a few quotes:

I know that's a lot of quotes, but the album is riddled with it. It's a real comfort to know that even people we admire struggle with things like this. But with that comes the challenge that Jimmy sets himself in the fourth track: "Help me get back to the reason I sing for you."
This is one of my new favourite albums... I listened to it pretty much all the way back from Brisbane! And all the way to Tenterfield. And a whole lot of other times too.
ReplyDeleteI will encourage anyone who listens to it though, to not skip the final track... the bit where Jimmy talks instead of singing. Well worth a listen. And some mulling over...
