"Ten Days" was the second single from The Sound of White, Missy Higgins's 2004 debut album, and it came out that November. Higgins had signed with Eleven while still in high school, spent much of 2002 backpacking around Europe and came home to write the record; this song grew out of the breakup with her boyfriend that came with that trip. She wrote it with Jay Clifford, guitarist and singer of the American band Jump, Little Children.

The players give her heartache plenty of room: Stuart Mathis on acoustic guitar, Greg Leisz on electric, Carlos Cordova on double bass, Martin Tillman on cello, Jamie Muhoberac on keys, Dean Butterworth on drums and Debra Dobkin on percussion. The video follows Higgins on the move, with many of its shots filmed around Adelaide.
