Music career

2007–2008: Coco

The popularity of Caillat's MySpace profile led her to become the number-one unsigned singer in her genre for four consecutive months.4 Her debut single was "Bubbly" and peaked at #5 on the Billboard Hot 100 and #2 on the Pop 100. Two other singles followed, "Realize" (#20, Hot 100) and "The Little Things" (#94, Pop 100).5

In August 2008, Caillat released a song and video for the 2008 Beijing Summer Olympics called "Somethin' Special" and released another music video for her song "The Little Things" for the U.S. market.8 Caillat also sings on "You" by Schiller and appears in the music video. Colbie has been involved in the soundtrack of the movie "Imagine That"; she covers the George Harrison song "Here Comes the Sun". She is also featured in Colombian singer Juanes album La Vida... Es un Ratico en Vivo in the song "Hoy Me Voy".

In October 2008, the song "Midnight Bottle" was included in the soundtrack of Brazilian soap opera "Três Irmãs", and despite not being released as a single yet, the song has received a lot of airplay in Brazil. Caillat provided background vocals and co-wrote with Taylor Swift, for Swift's song called "Breathe," on her album, Fearless, which was released November 11, 2008. Caillat released a French version of "The Little Things" ("Ces petits riens") as a single.9
