Little Voice is the second and major-label debut studio album by American singer-songwriter Sara Bareilles, which was released on July 3, 2007 on the Epic Records label.[6] Six of the tracks are re-recorded studio versions of songs from her previous album, Careful Confessions. A two-disc special edition of Little Voice with live acoustic tracks was released on March 18, 2008. The bonus disc also includes an interview with Bareilles and accompanying videos of the performances.

"Love Song" was selected as the first single. It was featured as the iTunes Single of the Week for June 19–25, 2007. In 2008, "Bottle It Up" was released as the second single. The video was directed by Marcos Siega.[7] The third single in the United States was supposed to be "Gravity", with the video released on February 3, 2009, but no further information was ever revealed as to the date of the single release.[8]

The album was certified gold in February 2008, and platinum in 2011 by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) for sales of over one million copies.[9][10] At the 51st Grammy Awards, "Love Song" was nominated for Song of the Year and Best Female Pop Vocal Performance.
