Professional ratings Review scores Source Rating Allmusic [1]
Courage is Paula Cole 's fourth studio album. It marks her return to the music scene after nearly a decade-long hiatus. The album is a bit of a departure from her previous albums towards more of a jazz and folk sound this time. "14 " was the first single from the album, while "Comin' Down " was released to Triple A radio in the US in early August. It also features the song "It's My Life" which was featured in Mercury automobile commercials.
