I like most of the songs. "Battle" is my favorite. It doesn't include lyrics, this may be inconvient for some people.

THIS CD IS GREAT. COLBIE HAS SUCH A EFFORTLESS AND BEAUTIFUL VOICE. EVERY SONG IS WONDERFUL. LOVE THIS CD.

Loved every song on the CD, everyone could or should be a hit. Great voice and great composition. Can't say enough good things about the CD, LOVED IT!!

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.

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 :)

Coco, by Colbie Caillat, has become my new favorite CD. It is loaded with sweet, personal and catchy tunes - straight from the heart. Once in the player, I keep it on repeat and can listen to it all day. Thank you Colbie. Keep up the great work and give us another one soon. Play on!

Great CD!! :)

Very cheerful & happy - puts you in a good mood :)

Definitely a fun breezy music, but soon all the songs pretty much sound the same and I wished maybe I just bought the radio hit.

Love this CD! I have played it daily since receiving it.. this is a must buy.

Really like the CD.
Rare to find a CD that you enjoy all the tunes!
Good value

Colbie Caillat is not your average valley girl. OK, she did work as a receptionist in a tanning salon and she was no stranger to Malibu surf, but Colbie was not going to limit herself to the boundaries of Thousand Oaks, California. She knew the world had more to offer and she wanted to explore it. At 19 years old, Colbie began to write songs and learned to play guitar. She was really good at it.

Her Dad is a renowned recording engineer and record producer and an inspiring coach. As Colbie learned the basics, she got a chance to do some demo work for some of her Dad's clients. She also took voice lessons from Michelle Mindel and auditioned her compositions to her friends. With a little experience and refinement, it all started to make sense. Maybe Colbie really could make a living with her music.

It was time to switch gears. Instead of recording other people's songs, she started to record her own material. In between takes for demos, Colbie would casually sing her own tunes. A couple of times recording engineer Mikal Blue, on the other side of the glass, rolled on Colbie's warm-ups and an informal demo reel of her own was formed. Her Dad heard some of these takes and was taken! She really had a lot of potential!

Word of mouth can be a wonderful thing. Colbie's friends also loved her songs and helped her post them on-line. Her quiet MySpace Music site began to attract a lot of attention. First, dozens of people dropped by every day, then hundreds and then thousands. Do you think people like her music? The last time I looked, Colbie was approaching 30 million total hits! Her first CD, entitled 'Coco' will soon reach double platinum in sales. In her words 'it's a diary of my life and all my emotions put to music.' It's also really sweet listening.

Two songs already are memorable radio standards. Colbie's playful 'Bubbly' is a delightful expression of new love. If you realized how 'Realize' was written, you'd have to laugh. Colbie had the basic riff and needed to build up the song. She handed it over to her friend who actually wrote the core of the lyrics. Colbie did not realize until later that the song was addressed to her! I especially enjoy the syncopated groove of 'Feelings Show.' You are bound to find your own favorite. Colbie offers refreshing diversity in her fresh well recorded debut. 'Coco' has been high on the charts since it was first released a year ago. Her fame is deserved. You simply can't miss.

Not only is it a big seller, 'Coco' is also very important from another aspect. Colbie's CD reaffirms that the traditional music industry, ruled by large media corporations, no longer has a monopoly on America's music. Thanks to the open public access of the Internet, Colbie truly is a star created by her peers. We have been waiting for this liberating revolution for decades. Finally, new acts have a chance to emerge based on quality instead of promotion dollars.

Colbie has a busy year or two ahead. She'll be touring America this summer opening for John Mayer and also performing as a solo act. In September, she'll earn more frequent flyer miles visiting many cities in Europe followed by a four gig tour in Japan. In the studio, Taylor Swift is teaming up with Colbie to write and perform a song on Taylor's new album. Colbie is also readying her own second CD for release in the summer of 2009.

Can't wait? Check out Colbie's pure fun cover and video of the Little Mermaid classic 'Kiss the Girl' recently released by Disney. Colbie has also leaked a couple of versions of a fresh song called 'Droplets' to be released as part of her new CD next summer. It's a duet with her songwriting pal Jason Reeves that is so genuine it's bound to be embraced. You'll also hear Colbie on the best-selling Christmas song of 2007 called 'Mistletoe' available digitally on-line. Listen carefully to Jason Mraz' third album 'We Sing, We Laugh, We Steal Things' and you'll hear a familiar voice on track three called 'Lucky.' I'll know what I'll say when 'Coco II' is ready for pre-orders: "Will you count me in?'

The debut album by Colbie Caillat, Coco, is one of the best written I have heard in quite awhile. Hopefully it is as successful as REO Speedwagon's Hi Infidelity, which it compares to in many ways.

I love this CD. The songs tell stories and have meaning. It's easy to sing along and fun to just sit and listen.

Coco from Malibu, California-born Colbie Caillat is a sweet, sugary diversion that is enjoyable because it accomplishes a lot without trying too much or seeming to work too hard.

That's not a knock on the production. Everything is solid here, and while no new ground is broken, it does what it sets out to do - present Ms. Caillat as a sweet, romantic, lovable presence whose voice glides through one romantic song after the other.

Her hit single "Bubbly," "One Fine Wire," "Midnight Bottle," and "Oxygen," are enjoyable without the listener having to work to hard. This record is full of unadulterated sweet music that is relaxing and soothing. There is more than enough room for singers like Ms. Caillat, who don't beat us over the head with layers of meaning, or challenge us with their opinions. Coco is a welcome diversion for those of us who want something soft and sweet without any rough edges.

This girl is awesome! Love every song on her album and I rarely say that. And I rarely purchase whole albums (cds) anymore, but this one is long time keeper.

Colbie Caillat is another example of where I say this: when you have a name like that, you just HAVE to get into show business. Anyway, instead of reaping the success of her father Ken, Colbie started her career on her own and thus became another internet phenomenon. But unlike other no-talents that got their start via MySpace (*cough* Soulja Boy), she is actually worth the hype.

The first three tracks off her album are fast-forwardable (well, actually, only the VERSES to "One Fine Wire" lack feeling) but fortunately, things pick up with "Bubbly", which, as I'm sure everyone knows by now, is just that. From there you'll find other quality tracks like "Battle", "Realize" and the gentle "Capri" (no, it's not about the pants). Standouts continue with metaphorical tales like "Tailor Made" and "Midnight Bottle".

When it comes to vocals, Colbie is no Celine Dion, but that hardly matters because she's got talent and she knows how to use it. I don't see the blue-eyed soul that other people see, but whatever the case, if you haven't picked Coco up yet, there's still time because then you'll realize how bubbly she is (sorry; I couldn't resist).

This is a nice cd. The majority of the songs are breezy and fun, perfect for a summer listen. I usually prefer edgier music, but this is an excellent debut cd, hopefully we will hear more from her.

This is a true breath of fresh air. The music industry seems to like junk nowadays. In a music era where Cheap-looking sex-sells singers think they can sing but are all really trash....Colbie Caillat turns it all around and sings from the heart. I can't wait for more from her. Each and every song on this CD will take you to a good place. There is nothing bad about her or her music. Wonderful.

I'm definitely hooked on Colbie Callat. This is a great CD...perfect easy listening summertime music!

The cd is great. She has such an amazing voice. I enjoy every song!

With MP3 players, it is very rare these days for me to listen to an entire album start to finish (I usually jump around so much). Colbie Caillat's new album, Coco, however has been in my car's CD player non-stop since I got it a few weeks back. My favorite track is "Magic" and I listen to it by far the most. "Bubbly" and "Capri" are also close seconds. Honestly though, all the tracks are great, and there isn't a single one I skip over - as so often happens with most CDs.

I would also recommend buying / downloading her other titles that are available but do not appear on this album "Mistletoe," "Dreams Collide," "Older" and "Circles."

The only possible negative I would give to this album is the background vocalist. He does not have a very good voice, and when his track is turned up too loud, he can really detract from Colbie's voice. She is best at her purest (ie - no background vocals) - like in Capri.

Coco by Colbie Caillat is a bland and uninspired disc. Colbie has a decent voice but there is no power in it, I was expecting so much more from this young artist but this album is not a standout. All the songs sound the same, boring vocals and clumsy guitar playing. Bubbly and Realize make me want to fall asleep. If you want an exciting new artist then I suggest Sara Bareilles, at least her voice and music won't make you comatose.

I'm a long-time Fleetwood Mac fan. I was curious what Ken Caillat's daughter was up to.
There are some pretty songs on this album, but the word cliche (i.e. heard that before) crosses my mind often.
I particularly like "Battle". That one is really good. The other songs range from nice to boring.

It's disturbing so many (young and inexperienced?) people give this album a 5 star rating. They obviously don't know how to value this album against other music.

I'd give it 3 stars. IMHO that's a realistic rating.

Coco
This young Lady has made a sweet and breezy CD. I enjoy it very much

This album really fit into the category of music that I really admire. I listen to it regularly. I also felt that I made a great purchase at a great price. The album could probably use a little more information on thye genre of music before buying. A little detail would help in decision making.

It's rare I come across an album that I just can't stop listening to. I love every song on this album and sometimes just can't turn Colbie off. She has a very smooth sultry voice with a poppy, uplifting beat behind it that's just different and makes you feel uplifted when you listen. The songs all flow together beautifully and have great lyrics. Her music probably most reminds me of Jason Mraz because of the excellent beat behind it, but it's much slower and more towards the pop/rock genre. I can't say enough good things about this album. I can't wait for her next one!

For those of you looking for a summery, fun, and immensely catchy acoustical pop album,look no further. Colbie Caillat's "Coco" is the perfect choice for those sun-warmed days when you feel like dancing or skipping to something light and upbeat to match your carefree mood. I also found the songs very easy listening. Her style is reminiscent of Jack Johnson, but a bit more refined,and I couldn't help noticing hints of Michael Buble in her entrancing voice.
If you heard "Bubbly" and said, "Oh brother, this is shallow!" don't prejudge the rest of the album. Granted, some songs may seem a bit cliche, but most of the songs are well thought-out emotions that are put accurately and compellingly to music. I'd rank "Bubbly" about #5 on the album. My top favorites are "The Little Things", a semi-angry breakup song; "Magic", a tender love song that will melt your heart;"Realize", my favorite, it's an extremely well writen song about when you first confess your love to someone; and the bonus track, "Older", about getting older and all the confusing emotions age and time bring.
I would say this is the catchiest album I've ever heard, and thank you Colbie for not leaving it at that! It's a simple equation: catchy tunes + heartfelt lyrics + summer = an unforgetable album. My friends, don't miss out!

The CD COCO by Colbie is terrific. I understand all the words to her songs--I'm 60 years old and young at heart. I love her music. Very Bubbly!!

Bubbly, the the first big hit from Colbie Callait is such a sweet, lovely song - touches you and makes you think of innocence again.

I really LOVE the song.

I'm 64 years old, so I probably shouldn't LIKE this music, but I do. I LOVE it, in fact. I mean I know Colby is a beautiful young girl and all, but I am NOT a dirty old man. I just like the upbeat, "Bubbly" quality of this music. I love that particular tune from the first time I heard it on the radio. It reminded me of the first time I heard Britney Spears in the aisle of BestBuy some years back, when her first CD came out. Loved that happy, bubble-gum sound - beFORE she broke big on the pop charts. Hopefully, Colby will conduct herself a little better. She is a very talented and gifted performer and writer; there's not a bad track on this record. Any time I want a psychic boost, I will put on her Coco CD. (And maybe Britney's first CD too.) Rock on, Colby. - Tim Bazzett

I had heard the song "Bubbly" being played on the radio alot and started searching for the singer and came across this CD. Such a nice, relaxing Cd to listen too. I bought it for one song and I am enjoying the whole CD and that is unusal when purchasing music. Coco is a thumbs up!

Soft, relaxing voice, the songs are indeed a cure for an aching heart.
When you feel like the world is not on your side, just pop the CD in and the day starts getting brighter.
Sweet and soulful music, the songs are catchy and fun to listen to.

I purchased this for the song, Bubbly but was pleasantly surprised with the other tracks. Colbie is a very talented singer and songwriter. I really enjoy listening to her songs and won't be surprised when she makes her way up the charts.

Usually when I have on Radio Disney in the car for my daughter I dread it! However, one day a song came on called Bubbly and we were both hooked. Colbie's voice is lovely and very easy to listen to. Her lyrics are sensible and not weary like many pop artists today. Besides Bubbly, give Realize and The Little Things a listen. Catchy and wonderful music. This is a great album end-to-end if you want some nice tunes, sung without all the screaming and junk that comes out of every American Idol wannabe! Thank you Colbie for singing!

Heard her voice and knew I wanted to own her cd. Both my teenage daughter love the cd also. My favorite song on the cd is Capri, my oldest daughter loved it so much that she will be naming her new boxer puppy it.
