In Australia , EMI released the album on 10 September 2010 . A special edition was released on 18 October 2010 , featuring a second disc of acoustic versions of each track on the album . Moa said that " I 've chosen to record an acoustic version of the album because I believe in the vulnerable , simplistic side of music and writing . The way you connect the songs the first time you hear it , no drums , no effects , no funky bass lines , just your voice and a guitar ... it feels like magic . "
