Thelma Plum's cover of "These Days" came out in late May 2020, a Brisbane singer tipping her hat to one of Powderfinger's best-loved songs. The original belongs to Powderfinger's fourth album, Odyssey Number Five, and carries the writing credits of Bernard Fanning, John Collins, Ian Haug, Darren Middleton and Jon Coghill.

For Plum, this was never just another session. She grew up with the song, and as a Brisbane local she already knew a couple of the guys in the band, so when the chance to record it came along, saying yes was the easy part. That's the story behind it: a Brisbane kid paying back a song that had been with her since childhood.
