Dobson co-wrote Miley Cyrus' single "Start All Over" and in 2010 she released her third studio album "Joy".
Dobson was discovered and signed by Jive Records in 2000. The record label wanted to give her a traditional pop star image. Dobson, however, wanted more guitar and to include some of her own written songs. Jive rejected the idea, so she left the record company. She found herself singing in a Toronto bar at 8:30 in the morning. It turned out a CEO at The Island Def Jam Music Group was in the bar that very morning. He wanted to sign her. They signed her up on the wrong lyrics. She sang her song "Stupid Little Love Song" and what the people thought she sang was "Stupid Little Buzz Saw" which they thought was "genius".
She met producer Jay Levine through Island Records and they began working on her music. “He just really let me be free. He found something in me that he really thought was special, it was just fate”. When in the recording studio, she hung up inspirational pictures of Kurt Cobain, Judy Garland, Coldplay, Jeff Buckley and the Vines, to help motivate her sound and to commemorate the artists who influenced her.
Dobson's self-titled debut album was released December 9, 2003 by Island Records and sold 307,000 copies in the United States, according to Nielsen SoundScan. Four singles were released from the album; "Bye Bye Boyfriend," "Take Me Away", "Everything", and "Don't Let Me Fall". "Take Me Away" and "Everything" were used in the film The Perfect Score.
During much of 2004, Dobson promoted her debut album, appearing for a live performance on TRL and numerous magazine covers and articles. Dobson made an appearance on NBC's TV series American Dreams where she played the role of Tina Turner, covering the song "River Deep, Mountain High". She was also the opening act on Justin Timberlake's European tour. That July, she released a new single, "Don't Go (Girls and Boys)", which was also featured in a Tommy Hilfiger commercial starring the singer. The album was later reissued with that single added. Dobson also had a new song, "If You Walk Away", on the soundtrack of Raising Helen.
Dobson released "Truth Anthem" on the Much Dance 2005 CD compilation, a benefit for the Canadian branch of War Child. In April 2005, Dobson was nominated for two Juno Awards, Pop Album of the Year and New Artist of the Year; both categories were won by Avril Lavigne. In the summer of 2005, Dobson was in a public service ad "Make Poverty History", which brings awareness to child poverty worldwide.

Fefe Dobson Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴
I'm in bliss, I don't wanna get up
Let's just stay here
Sun is shining in
Lighting up the art
Tatted on your skin
Every part of me is shaking in awe, awe
Damn, I'm so in love with you
I'm so fuckin' in love with you
Damn you in your birthday suit
I'm in love, I'm in love, I'm in love with you
God, your lips are soft
On my lips, I'm about to take off
Got me singing can't get enough
Boy, you're fitting me just like a glove
Think I've died and gone to heaven
Don't stop
Don't stop
Damn, I'm so in love with you
I'm so fuckin' in love with you
Damn you in your birthday suit
I'm in love, I'm in love, I'm in love with you
Damn, I'm so in love with you
I'm so fuckin' in love with you
Damn you in your birthday suit
I'm in love, I'm in love, I'm in love with you
I would walk to the ends of the earth for you
Buy a ticket with no return for you
I would suit up and go to work for you
Give it all up just to be with you
I would walk to the ends of the earth for you
Buy a ticket with no return for you (just to be with you)
I would suit up and go to work for you
Give it all up just to be with you
Damn, I'm so in love with you (love with you)
I'm so fuckin' in love with you (love with you)
Damn you in your birthday suit
I'm in love, I'm in love, I'm in love with you
Damn, I'm so in love with you
I'm so fuckin' in love with you
Damn you in your birthday suit
I'm in love, I'm in love, I'm in love with you
I want your babies
I want a house
I want forever
I want it now
I'm so in love
I'm so in love
I'm so in love
I'm so in love
