It’s not as if Colbie Caillat has never had her heart broken, experienced a major letdown, or had a low point in her life. But instead of wallowing in sorrow through her songs, she prefers to have her music focus on whatever positive lessons can be taken from a setback. That’s why the singer-songwriter, who broke through with the hit “Bubbly,” tends to have song titles like “Think Good Thoughts,” “What If” and “Dream Life, Life,” all featured on her third and latest CD, “All of You.”
“I think that music is therapy,” the 26-year-old said in a recent interview with the Associated Press. “So when I write a song, I write from exact moments that I go through, and I know that everyone can relate, because everybody goes through the same situations in life. … When you can tap into that and people can relate to it, then it connects you to them.”
