Hilary Duff grabs her bikini in "Chasing The Sun"

Hilary Duff finally returned to the music business with the release of her long awaited comeback track, "Chasing the Sun," and its accompanying music video. "Chasing the Sun" is the first cut off of Duff's upcoming fifth studio album. Due out in the coming months, the record, has an "earthy, indie-pop vibe," will be the multihyphenate's first in seven years! Are you in serious need of a summer getaway? Well, cue up the 26-year-old's new video as Duff opts for some good, silly fun and spends her hours imagining herself in her beloved sun.
"I took a break from music for quite awhile, but it gave me the power to choose my next steps carefully and I'm really proud of the album I've made," Duff said of her comeback via a press release. "'Chasing The Sun' is a light and fun summer song that I hope helps people to feel a little more carefree." The upbeat, catchy tune, co-written by Colbie Caillat, has a beachy, summery lilt and tells you to go with the flow, live life to the fullest and all those other sun-soaked cliches. It shows a more mature side to the singer, without completely abandoning her roots.
Backed by a simple guitar strum, the breezy return to form recalls Metamorphosis-era HilDuff at her most earnest and summer-iest. As suggested in recent interviews, the reggae-infused, straight-outta-2003 song steers clear of the electronic/dance sound of 2007's "Dignity," instead diving into folkier-type territory. "I'm chasing the sun/ Won't miss out on the fun/ Gotta get it while our hearts are young," the former Lizzie McGuire actress repeatedly crooning across the cheerful pop track.
The sunny visuals for the single are equally bubbly. It shows Duff as a frustrated office worker who fantasizes about the outside world - a sunny getaway. her daydreaming takes her to a sandy beach where she frolics in a bikini while lying in the sand and getting a sun-screened rubdown from a hot male companion she spots in the pages of a magazine. Eventually, she begins to re-enact her daydreams in real life, causing havoc between the other office workers. After a freak accident almost leads to her throwing a hamster ball with the hamster in it, she ends up being fired and taking her stuff back home.

Colbie Caillat Debuts "Brighter Than The Sun"

Gearing up for the summer, Grammy winner Colbie Caillat has just introduced her bright new video for her upbeat, infectious new single "Brighter Than The Sun." The new track is the second single and follows "I Do," which hit No.1 on iTunes and comes off of the 26-year-old entertainer's upcoming third LP, "All of You," which will hit shelves and iTunes on July 12. "Yay, we released some extra tixs for my shows in LA on July 14 and San Francisco on July 15! Hope to see you guys there!!!!" Caillat wrote on her Twitter.
Co-wrote with One Republic's Ryan Tedder, the up-tempo and happy theme running through "All Of You" is the ups and downs of relationships, most significantly Caillat's boyfriend Justin Young. "He was in my band for two years before we noticed that we like each other," the Californian singer-songwriter explained. "I wrote most of this album about us, our ups and downs. All the songs are about life experiences, so I guess this record is more grown up, with a somewhat wiser perspective."
This upbeat pop song, like several others on the disc, is about the initial excitement at the beginning of a relationship. Said Caillat to PopEater: "A lot of the songs, like 'I Do' and 'Brighter Than the Sun,' are about being in love and so happy and thinking about future things with this guy." Ever the consummate pro, Caillat quickly shut down any notion that she's the type of artist to just show up and sing. She prefers to be hands-on and has a good reason for it. "I gotta be involved I mean, it's my image I'm portraying," she tells E! News.
Caillat is sure to bring smiles to your day with this new video for "Brighter Than The Sun." Filmed in sunny Playa Del Rey beachside, the clip, produced by up-and-coming UK director Emil Nava, showcases a very bohemian Caillat dancing at a party with a group easy-going friends and frolicking in nature while singing a very catchy love song. The production is inspired on the nature scenes, such as flowers, fruits and a bed full of gram. Caillat has such a sunny disposition that her music pretty much becomes synonymous with summertime in your mind. Based on a humble approach, all of her songs are bright, airy, whisper-light, sweet and beachy!

Colbie Caillat | "Fallin' For You" (Video)

"Fallin' For You" is the first single from Colbie Caillat's upcoming sophomore album "Breakthrough" set for August 25 release. The pop-ballad song was released today in the US. Colbie explained to Elle that the song is "about falling for a guy I was friends with. We went out on a date and I realized that there was no one else in the room. The room was silent, and I was on this high from it the next day and wrote this song."
Colbie debuted in 2007 with "Coco", which included hit singles "Bubbly", "Realize", and "The Little Things"; She recorded a cover of the song "Kiss the Girl" from The Little Mermaid for Disney's DisneyMania vol.6 CD in May 2008; and also released a song and video for the 2008 Beijing Summer Olympics called "Somethin' Special" in August 2008.

"Fallin' For You" is honestly a very simple and mellow song. It really is quite relaxing, and follows well from the strength her other hits like "Bubbly" and her recent duet "Lucky" with Jason Mraz have score. I am very eager to see if Colbie's next record can shine just as well as she can sparkle. When it has came down it, there are honestly very few singers right now that simply touch you in the heart, that aren't all about gimmicks or fancy gloss, just a simple voice of the soul. Colbie has honestly has been one of those few. Since she broke out a couple of years ago with "Coco", she has really made great strides as a singer/songwriter.

Colbie Caillat | "Realize" (Video)

Colbie Caillat was born May 28, 1985 in California. "Realize" is the 2nd single from her debut album, "Coco" and was officially released today. The song is an acoustic folk-pop song, where Colbie sings of having feelings for a best friend. Allmusic said "she sings about simple, everyday things in an unassuming manner, letting her melodies and girl-next-door charm carry the day".

The video was filmed in Canada. Colbie and her best friend both left a note for each other, and the two discover that neither is home, and slip their notes under each others doors. Instead of leaving, the friend decides to sit and wait at Colbie's door, and Colbie is shown arriving as the two exchange smiles.

I'm pretty like Colbie's singing style, and have a lot of favorite singles: Battle, Bubbly, Capri, Feelings Show, Kiss The Girl, Magic, Mistletoe, Older, Onde Fire Wire, Oxygen, Tailor Made and The Little Things.
