''A Place I've Never Been'' is the first studio album by ''Australian Idol'' series three winner Kate DeAraugo, released in Australia by Sony/BMG Australia as well as 19 Recordings on 12 December 2005 (see 2005 in music). DeAraugo chose the album title from album track "The Most Beautiful Place" which is her favourite song from the album. The album has a mixture of genre between pop rock and ballad songs – some written by Brooke McClymont, Jewel Kilcher and The Veronicas. A cover version of the Bryan Adams song "Heaven" was featured on the album. The singles released from the album "Maybe Tonight" and "Faded" became top ten hits on the Australian ARIA Singles Chart. The singles released from ''A Place I've Never Been'' were successful in DeAraugo's home country Australia. "Maybe Tonight", the first single released, was the "Winner's Single" of season three of ''Australian Idol'', where DeAraugo came first place. It debuted at number-one on the Australian ARIA Singles Chart with sales of 20,307 copies and was nominated for "Highest Selling Single" at the 2006 ARIA Awards.〔("Idol goes into sales decline" ).
