 The album puts songwriting front and centre, with bare acoustic arrangements, many recorded in one or two takes.The album also showed Bai exploring his unusual guitar technique, which combines plectrum-less strumming and picking, and moving baselines with unusual chord constructions such as diminished and major seventh chords that are rarely seen in rock and folk settings.“The songs For the Promise of Gold”, “My Love is Here” and “Your Love Means the World to me” have become firm live favourites both solo and with Bai's band.
