Congrats to Carrie on the CMA nomination! It is amazing how many times she's been nominated.

Aw, she looks amazing.

Yeah it is, she's that good. She needs more wins too though.

Cereal Killer · 09-26-2014, 08:50 AM

She does need to win more often.

Carrie's releasing a Greatest Hits album on December 9!

Gorgeous cover!

Quote:

The new album will draw from Underwood’s 18 #1 singles to date, while also featuring new material. “Something in the Water” is the first single, officially impacting country radio on October 6.

For Carrie, the album is not only a career milestone, but also a perfect way to be able to share some new songs with fans in advance of her next full studio album. She says, “I can’t believe it’s been a decade since I auditioned for American Idol. Looking back at the songs I’ve released over the years lets me relive my amazing journey. Even better I get to include new music for the fans!”

Produced by long-time collaborator, Mark Bright, and written by Carrie, Chris DeStefano, and Brett James, “Something in the Water” is a song that Carrie says was exciting even as they were writing it, and one that she hopes will touch listeners in the same way that it affects her.

“‘Something in the Water’, is so inspirational,” Carrie says. “It’s joyous! I can’t help but smile when I hear it. I hope it has the same effect on everyone who listens to it.”

She's also releasing a new song Something in the Water September 29! Next Monday!

Here's a video message from Carrie where you can hear a snippet of the song:

It must be an amazing feeling.

Thanks for all the links and news! Gorgeous cover for the single, I like that it's also B&W and listening to the song now, sounds good! I'll have to check out her setlist and R.E.M cover later.

Cereal Killer · 09-29-2014, 09:02 PM

You're welcome! I like the B&W single cover too, it suits the song. Her vocals are really awesome on the new single.

Hope you enjoy the videos!

Her setlist was awesome. She sounded so good and looked amazing as always.

Cereal Killer · 11-06-2014, 01:57 AM

I still need to watch it but I believe you.

Great!

There's also a lot of other CMA stuff but I don't have time to post it now.

***dancing in the rain*** · 11-06-2014, 05:05 PM

Lovely concept for the music video! The choreography is gorgeous and it reminds me a lot of the dances of one of my favourite SYTYCD choreographers, Travis Wall. I'll have to check if anyone has info on that.

And beautiful performance at the CMA's!

Cereal Killer · 11-07-2014, 01:54 AM

Travis Wall did choreograph that video.

It's a gorgeous routine.

***dancing in the rain*** · 11-07-2014, 05:25 AM

I thought I recognized his distinct style

He hasn't done one dance that I didn't absolutely love and this was no different

Cereal Killer · 11-13-2014, 09:00 AM

That's so cool he has such a distinctive style.

And that Carrie was able to have him to work on her music video.

***dancing in the rain*** · 11-13-2014, 02:52 PM

It was, I was happy to see it

He was actually a contestant on my favourite season of SYTYCD, he placed forth but came back as choreographer which was pretty cool.

In Carrie news, it's confirmed she's having a boy
