Coco

With no marketing push and only the power of the music behind her, Caillat became a sensation on the social networking site. Rolling Stone highlighted her as one of the top female artists on myspace. Ultimately, her number of friends swelled to more than 100,000. Her profile has been visited over 3 million times, and she has more than l0 million plays. She's currently averaging 50,000 + a day.

The songs on Caillat's debut album COCO mirror the Malibu-born Caillat's low-key, refreshing style. Armed with her acoustic guitar and her dusky vocals, she evokes the same gentle, yet spirited style of her musical influences John Mayer, Bob Marley, Lauryn Hill and The Weepies. The laid-back tempo of Hawaii, where she spent twice annual family vacations, is echoed in the music.

"She's the real thing," stated Monte Lipman, President of Universal Republic Records. "From her unique songwriting skills to her powerful but understated presence, Colbie has connected to millions of music lovers simply through the power of her music.

Why did I buy this?

I love the song "Realize" and throughly enjoy "Bubbly." Everything else on this album sounds like everything else I've ever heard, not to mention each other, so save yourself some money and download these two if you like them and ignore the rest. It's really not worth the money.

Addictingly Refreshing For Sure!

Even though I am sooo late in getting Coco, I am sooo glad to have it now. With my first listen and each listen since then, I have been loving the kaleidascope uniqueness found in each of these songs. Bubbly is the song that caught my attention first, hearing it on the radio, and then with hearing Realize, I knew I wanted to hear more of Colbie's magic. There isn't a bad song in the bunch. Colbie has such a fresh way of bringing these songs to life. Her vocals, lyrics, and acoustics are crisp clear, sentimentally alive and even sensual. Battle, Magic, Little Things, and Tailor Made, are wonderful gems, they show the depth of Colbie's talents. I think it is sooo neat that her Dad worked with her on these songs with her. It is very easy to hear the inspiration and right back at you gratitude, as these songs unfold over and over in my headphones. Sooo if you are reading this, and you don't have this cd yet, I say go ahead and order it, I am sure you will be caught up in Colbie's magic in no time at all. I always say Better Late than Never! I hope to hear more from Colbie! Take care, Nancy Holtz :)
