White Lilies Island is the second studio album by Australian singer-songwriter Natalie Imbruglia. It was released by RCA Records on 5 November 2001 in most international territories and on 5 March 2002 in the United States.[3] For this album, Imbruglia collaborated with new songwriter, Gary Clark, with whom she co-wrote majority of the album materials, other collaborators include Phil Thornalley, who was a major contributor of her previous album, as well as Ian Stanley, Matt Wilder and Patrick Leonard. In attempt to having more control of creative direction, Imbruglia admitted that she suffered from writer's block, perfectionism and isolation that led her to co-write 64 intended songs and resulted four years to complete the album.[4] The album is named after the location of Imbruglia's home in Windsor.[5]
Musically, White Lilies Island is a rock album, with element of pop, and acoustic sound.[2][6] The album was notable for being the first to include copy protection software on compact disc pressing, but later removed due to surrounding technical faults that resulted to consumer outcry.[7] Upon release, White Lilies Island received polarized reviews, while some critics praised the album for its dark and distinctive tone compared to her predecessor.[8] Commercially, the album charted within top five in Australia, top twenty in the United Kingdom, and top forty in the United States. White Lilies Island has been sold one million copies worldwide.[9]
