"Wasted" comes from A Book Like This, the debut album Angus and Julia Stone released in Australia in September 2007. The brother and sister wrote it together, and both sing and play guitar on it, with Fran Healy producing and Ian Pritchett mixing.

What they built around those two voices is a small chamber ensemble: violins from Sally Herbert and Calina De La Mare, Oli Langford on viola, Ian Burdge on cello, Jeff Ratner on double bass, and Mitchell Connelly on drums and percussion. It gives the pair's hushed songwriting room to bloom, strings rising where a lesser debut would have settled for a strummed guitar and a shrug.
