Customer comments on this selection.
 Addictive!
All I can say is WOW. This girl can sing, and what's more she can write and play. Do yourself a favor and get this CD. Just remember though, I am not responsible if you become addicted to it.
where is extended version with lines about "love letter..."
I was listening MIKE radio in Boston and heard a long version that included lines "I'm not going to write you a love LETTER...." in addition to the eponymous "Love Song." Where is that extended and augmented version, pretty sure it runs past the 4:20 or so on the album.
Anyone familiar with THAT version??
 Missing some soul
A lot of good elements, but this album just doesn't quite have enough soul or depth to make it past radio pop.
My favorite CD of 2007, and 2008!
I bought this cd last summer and I still haven't taken it out of my stereo. Her voice is a breathe of fresh air! I love her sound - soulful, folk, strong but quiet. When I heard that the radio was playing "Love Song" I was excited that she was getting recognition. I just hope this doesn't change her sound. Cannot wait to see what she does next. I would like to hear more acoustic with just her and her piano!
If you are debating whether or not to buy this cd, give it a chance, you will not be disappointed!
Best Album/Artist I've heard in a long time
When I first heard Sara Bareilles' single "Long Song" on the radio I thought it was a typical pop song, catchy, and fine with me until I heard it several times over and decided I liked this song enough to go check out the other work from this artist I had never heard of before.
It turns out that "Little Voice" has become my favorite album of this year, or the past two or so years for that matter. Not only is Sara's voice lovely and her tunes catchy, but the lyrics are absolutely beautiful. I can only appreciate a catchy tune for so long before I become bored of it, for me the lyrics make the song and that is my favorite quality about this album, and all of her work, which I have since made it a point to collect. Sara's lyrics tell stories with poetic brilliance, I myself love to write as a hobby and so I always appreciate meaningful, creative lyrics that touch me, and Sara's music is full of them.
All the songs on this album are worth the purchase, from the catchy "Love Song" which has become a radio favorite, to the jazzier "Vegas" and the humorous lyrics to "Fairytale" a fun track with a message as well. "Morningside" and "Love on the Rocks" stand out with their fun beats, and "Between the Lines" and "Gravity" have become my two favorites because they have beautiful lyrics that you can just tell have come from this artist's soul, and each has had the ability to make me want to cry nearly every time I listen to it. The note Sara hits at the end of "gravity" is probably the most beautiful, tear-insipiring moment of the entire album, and it really showcases her talent.
Every year there are seemingly tons of new female pop artists who hit the scene, and they usually each have a few hits, sound pretty nice, but mostly all the same. Their lyrics are shallow and catchy, perfect for hundreds of repetitions on the radio until listeners like me simply can't take it anymore. Sara Bareilles stands out among this sea of competition because, frankly, she is on a higher level, possessing something called TALENT which is too few and far between in the music industry. I would recommend this album highly to anyone who appreciates an excellent female singer/songwriter, you won't be dissapointed.
P.S. If you enjoy "Little Voice" I would also suggest checking out Sara's debut album "Careful Confessions." While many of the tracks are the same on both albums, "Careful Confessions" has the original versions of these songs, which have a jazzier, less pop-radio-inspired feel to them. Also, there are about four songs on that album that are not featured on "Little Voice" and are definitely worth a listen..."Undertow" is my personal favorite out of those.
