Background

Lesley Roy began recording the album during 2007. She described the meaning of the album's name, Unbeautiful, as the title of one of her favorite songs on the album — "I called the album that because it's when I hit rock bottom. It's the question a lot of people ask when they're in a relationship, and it's like 'where was the point where you didn't find me attractive anymore?' It's a universal feeling and an unusual word. A lot of people ask me about it and relate to it. And the world is not perfect right now. "Unbeautiful" seems like a realistic title for a lot of things that are happening."[citation needed]
