A Carrie/Ryan Tedder song would MAKE MY LIFE. Besides the future Country insta-classic "Remind Me", I'm most excited for the co-writes between her, David Hodges, Hillary Lindsey, and not Kara  Oh, and random note: FIRST POST (besides the opening one) OF THE NEW ALBUM THREAD  Typo, you made the opening post look fantastic! Love the arrangement and organization of the whole thing. :) |

Thanks for starting the new thread, Tyrell. It's appreciated. I really hope that the Lori McKenna track makes it. It's not very often that a Taylor stan gets a first page post in a Carrie thread.  |

I'm super excited for this! I feel like this could be a defining album in her career if she puts out work that gets buzz like her performances this past month (ACMs and Girl's Night Out!) So excited for this! And more excited that she said it's shaping up to be an upbeat record! I love fun Carrie!!!  |

Thanks for the great first post, typo.
Nice to see that the album seems to be more upbeat. Really can´t wait for the new era, all starting with 'Remind Me'.

I really hope that the Lori McKenna track makes it. I absolutely agree. Lori writes quality music. That, mixed with Carrie's angelic voice, would be outstanding. |

I'm really excited for this album. Something just tells me it's going to be her best yet, and will get her that critical acclaim we've been wanting for her for so long. I can't wait til we start getting possible news on the first single, album title, and release dates for the first single and the album.

Carrie performed at the Naval Academy in Annapolis earlier tonight:  Thanks for all of the kind words regarding the introductory post. I tried to make it as informative and visually pleasing as possible. A Carrie/Ryan Tedder song would MAKE MY LIFE. Eh. I'll pass. I really hope that the Lori McKenna track makes it. Me too. She's incredibly talented. I'd love to hear Carrie's voice on 'All I Ever Do'. |

LOL That guy from the videos is hilarious. 'I will never cheat on you Carrie. Never'. 'I'm cuter than a hockey player, I swear .' Great videos, thanks. |

That video of "Walk This Way," "Paradise City" and "Before He Cheats" is legendary.

I don't see any reasons why we wouldn't be getting an album this year. I think it will come out like her other albums around Novermber. When Carrie blogs about what the album possibly will sound like, I think they must have a lot of songs already.
Plus I think her record label would want to benifit from Christmas sales.

I think that with the time Carrie is taking on working on album #4, it might be her best album yet. And I think the decision not to release a fifth single from PO is looking to be the good decision. Her performances of HGTA and Walk This Way, coupled with a smash country hit waiting to happen in the form of "Remind Me" and then a first single that would hopefully be brilliant would fuel interest in this album much more than a fifth PO single and a lead album #4 single.

I absolutely love new eras! It's so exciting not knowing anything about the era, and along the weeks of waiting we get more info. I love when we get little details like song titles, track list, album cover, debut single and its cover, more images from the album, etc. It's such a fun time! I really look forward to this! And I can't say enough how much I love the idea of a prominently upbeat album. I hope Carrie has some great midtempos this time. I really love Wasted, All-American Girl, etc. |

As long as the majority of the upbeat tracks aren't about revenge on a boy (like what they usually seem to be), I'll be happy! |

I actually think this is shaping up to be same old, same old! Carrie seems too afraid to take risks, which is a shame...

Looking forward to new Carrie music soon! Can't wait for the new album, and I'm excited to hear Remind Me as well. ;) As long as the majority of the upbeat tracks aren't about revenge on a boy (like what they usually seem to be), I'll be happy! This. Maybe now that she's a newlywed, she can write/record an upbeat love song instead. |

More video from Carrie's show at the Naval Academy: As long as the majority of the upbeat tracks aren't about revenge on a boy (like what they usually seem to be) Carrie's only real boy-bashers are 'Before He Cheats', 'Cowboy Casanova', 'Undo It', & 'Songs Like This'. The problem is that three of those four were singles, obviously, creating the misconception that all of Carrie's up-tempo numbers are boy-bashers. Which is exactly why I think it's important that a light-hearted or story-driven up-tempo gets single treatment this time around. The public needs to see more of that side. I actually think this is shaping up to be same old, same old! Carrie seems too afraid to take risks, which is a shame... Oh, Leighton. |

Count me in with those that love the new eras. It's really exciting getting song titles and hearing demos and everything.
I'm still really hoping that "Oklahoma Wind" makes the album. If it's mostly upbeat, I would only hope the ballads are OW quality, or just OW itself.
