Lessons To Be Learned. The Melbourne-born Cilmi won, among other awards, Best Female Artist and Breakthrough Artist Of The Year for both single – “Sweet About Me” – and album, as well as snagging the award for Highest Selling Single Of The Year.
Prepped for the kind of welcome by U.S. music fans that has seen her take the rest of the pop music world by storm, VH1 has already reserved their notch for the singer/songwriter, preparing to feature her as one of the first VH1 ‘You Oughta Know’ selections of 2009.

Lessons To Be Learned has already soared to the Top 10 in more than ten countries, with the single netting a string of #1’s in her native Australia, Holland, the UK, and dominating the Top 5 real estate of the international charts in Switzerland, Denmark, Germany, New Zealand and numerous other territories.
The singer was a central part of the creative process throughout the making of her debut CD, with Cilmi contributing to more than four dozen songs before she
and her support team chose the selections that would make the final release.
Lessons To Be Learned thrives on the singer's keen instincts and underlying emotional depth, with London’s Sunday Times affirming ‘a composure that belies her age.’
