In 2001 Higgins' sister entered "All for Believing" on her behalf into Unearthed, radio station triple J's competition for unsigned bands. The song won the competition and was added to the station's playlist.[8] Two record companies showed an interest in Higgins — Sony and Eleven.[6] She signed with Eleven, a decision partly based on the fact that they were happy for her to take time to backpack around Europe.[6] Having spent years planning the trip with a friend, she spent most of 2002 in Europe.[10][11] While she was travelling, a recording of "All for Believing" started to be played by Los Angeles radio station KCRW.[11] This brought attention from U.S. record labels and, by the end of 2002, an international record deal with Warner Bros.
I think that this is an absolutely beautiful song.
