Milk and toast and honey make it sunny on a rainy Saturday, he-he-hey Milk and toast, some coffee take the stuffiness out of days you hate, you really hate Slow morning news pass me by I try not to analyse but didn't he blow my mind this time Didn't he blow my mind
(Here he comes...) To bring a little lovin', honey (Here he comes...) To take away the hurt inside (Here he comes...) is everything that matters to me (Here he comes...) Is everything I want in life
Milk and toast and honey Ain't it funny how things sometimes look so clear and feel so near The dreams I dream, my favourite wishful thinkin' Oh he's bookmarked everywhere, everywhere True love might fall from the sky You never know what to find but didn't he blow my mind this time Didn't he blow my mind?
(Here he comes...) To bring a little lovin', honey (Here he comes...) To take away the pain inside (Here he comes...) is everything that matters to me (Here he comes...) Is everything I want from life (Here he comes...) Oh lay a little lovin', honey To feel you're gettin' close to me (Here he comes...) is everything that matters to me (Here he comes...) Is everywhere I want to be

Cos you were all yellow, I drew a line, I drew a line for you, Oh what a thing to do, And it was all yellow. Your skin, Oh yeah your skin and bones, Turn into something beautiful, And you know for you, Id bleed myself dry for you, Id bleed myself dry. Its true, look how they shine for you, Look how they shine for you, Look how they shine for, Look how they shine for you, Look how they shine for you, Look how they shine. Look at the stars, Look how they shine for you, And all the things that you do.
Ohh, how about a round of applause Yeah, standing ovation Oooh ohh yeah, yeah yeah yeah yeah
You look so dumb right now Standing outside my house Trying to apologize You're so ugly when you cry Please, just cut it out
An' don't tell me you're sorry 'cause you're not Baby when I know you're only sorry you got caught
But you put on quite a show Really had me going But now it's time to go Curtain's finally closing That was quite a show Very entertaining But it's over now (but it's over now) Go on and take a bow
Grab your clothes and get gone (get gone) You better hurry up before the sprinklers come on Talkin' about, girl, I love you, you're the one This just looks like a re-run Please, what else is on (ohh)
And don't tell me you're sorry 'cause you're not Baby when I know you're only sorry you got caught
But you put on quite a show Really had me going But now it's time to go Curtain's finally closing That was quite a show Very entertaining But it's over now (but it's over now) Go on and take a bow
Ohh, and the award for best liar goes to you For making me believe that you could be faithful to me Let's hear your speech out
How about a round of applause A standing ovation
But you put on quite a show Really had me going Now it's time to go Curtain's finally closing That was quite a show Very entertaining But it's over now (but it's over now) Go on and take a bow
Take all of your wasted honor Every little past frustration Take all of your so-called problems, Better put ‘em in quotations
Say what you need to say [x8]
Walking like a one man army Fighting with the shadows in your head Living out the same old moment Knowing you’d be better off instead, If you only could . . .
Say what you need to say [x8]
Have no fear for giving in Have no fear for giving over You’d better know that in the end Its better to say too much Then never say what you need to say again
Even if your hands are shaking And your faith is broken Even as the eyes are closing Do it with a heart wide open
滾石雜誌:「一個不知名的歌手，帶給整個樂壇希望」 美國6000多位作詞作曲人士部落格串聯推薦 網路創作單曲累積點播高達2000多萬次 湛藍衝浪天堂想聽傑克強森彈吉他‧椰香貝殼沙灘愛聽寇比凱蕾輕聲唱 發片前蟬聯MySpace網站最受歡迎未簽約歌手冠軍長達四個多月+作品播放次數突破一千萬次 比Norah Jones更輕盈明亮的悅耳作品權威音樂網站AMG四顆星激賞舒適聽覺系創作優質女聲發行首週空降全美數位專輯榜冠軍+流行榜No. 5 如果不是這個年頭有個東西叫做部落格，今年21歲住在加州馬里布的女孩Colbie Caillat蔻比，應該早就放棄當創作歌手的夢想，改行當個攝影師、搬到夏威夷去。嗯，還好美國部落格Myspace的力量還算大，讓蔻比的音樂，先被6240個創作歌手部落格串聯推薦，之後如滾雪球般的變成13萬個網友加入好友名單，讓蔻比的單曲＜Bubbly＞前後共被點播超過2000萬次，看來蔻比來去夏威夷這件事，可有得等了。 「一個不知名的歌手，帶給整個樂壇希望。」滾石雜誌在蔻比第4個月蟬聯網路點播第一名的時候，發表了這個標題。同時8家唱片公司展開簽約大戰，「大部份唱片公司都說要重新包裝；只有環球給我所有的自由。」嗯、聽起來蔻比對唱片業還頂了解的，可能是因為他的父親Ken Caillat，也是傳奇樂團Fleetwood Mac的製作人，「我父親本來還想請Mik Fleetwood擔任專輯的鼓手，但是我不希望藉助大明星的加持。」難怪唱片公司大老闆，接受告示牌雜誌訪問時說：「我們什麼都沒做，蔻比就把一切都做好了。」 從小接受古典鋼琴訓練、19歲時學習吉他，才結束第一堂課程就用吉他寫下第一首歌曲。2006年9月在網路上發表＜Bubbly＞以及＜The Little Things＞單曲，一年不到發行首張創作專輯《Coco》(蔻比的小名)。在美國發行當天，只用了幾個小時就登上iTune專輯榜冠軍，告示牌樂評稱她為：「女生版的傑克強森」、專業音樂網站AMG給予四顆星高評價，還盛讚：「這是一個比Norah Jones更輕盈明亮的悅耳作品。」在這個商業行銷手法凌駕音樂本質，以及詞曲創作被所謂的芭樂公式限制住的現在，蔻比的出現為當代流行樂壇注入無比清新的氧氣。從如陽光般溫暖的＜Bubbly＞和＜Oxygen＞、愜意的中板R&B曲＜The Little Things＞、帶點輕快雷鬼感受的＜Tied Down＞、到流暢民謠風的＜Tailor Made＞…12首歌曲緊密構成概念完整的舒適聽覺系情緒佳釀，嗯，誠如歌詞所說：「It starts in my toes, And I crinkle my nose, Where ever it goes I always know」絕對堪稱是今年不容錯過的好聲音！ 總裁的話Avery Lipman, SVP of Universal Republic Records 聽起來很像陳腔濫調，但是在我見到蔻比的第一眼，就讓我想起「征服情海」電影中的一句經典對白：「You had me at hello(一開口就征服了我)」那是星期二的早上，蔻比抱著吉他來到我辦公室，清唱三首歌後，我們就開始談合作了。我們了解她在Myspace所創下的驚人紀錄，但是我們認為她不只是部落格女孩，她有無限潛力可以成為全球性的創作才女。專輯裡收錄了十二首歌曲:1. Oxygen2. The Little Things3. One Fine Wire4. Bubbly5. Feeling Shows6. Midnight Bottle7. Realize 8. Battle9. Tailor Mode10. Magic 11. Tie Down12. Capri
