The interim period included several new tracks for a greatest hits album, several solo projects for lead singer Leigh Nash, a 2008 album containing mostly Christmas standards, and the My Dear Machine EP. "My Dear Machine", "Sooner Than Later," and "Give It Back" (under the title "Amazing Grace (Give it Back)") all appeared on the EP, although the latter two were completely re-recorded. [3]
