Day's second album was 'Stop All the World Now' in late 2003. His polished pop sound scored two hit singles with the love songs 'Collide' and 'She Says'. He released the 'Live From.' EP in 2005 and after several years of touring and a court case he took time off to travel. He returned in 2009 with the album 'Sound the Alarm' and lead single 'Be There'.
