I have a bold, possibly unpopular statement to make: "Don't Forget to Remember Me" remains one of, if not her most, underrated singles to date. It had unfortunate single placing between Carrie’s two biggest hits, but I agree. I’d love to see her bring this back with an acoustic arrangement next tour, it’d be a throwback moment in her shows for sure - also gives her an opportunity to break up her show vocally since it’s probably her easiest single to sing, at least one of the easiest. Speaking of tours, that’s probably gonna look very different for the next couple of years... Some cities are already considering banning concerts and sporting events into 2021... Crazy implications coming up for awards season too - will be very interesting and unnerving to see how things unfold. I’m wondering if they have the awards but style the show like they did the ACM special a couple weekends back? I have no clue how that would work, but I hardly believe we’ll be able to have any “normal” awards shows this coming season. Also wondering if criteria will have to be altered with absolutely no touring taking place; maybe for the rest of the year into the next... going to be an interesting ride. I've wanted her to bring DFTRM back for a very long time. Even if it was part of a medley or something. Glad I'm not alone! Interesting thoughts on the touring aspect. It makes me wonder if we might get some "side project" albums from her, and CU7 might be delayed? As I've mentioned (and no, I won't give up) I'd love for her to release a Christmas album this year. I don't think the timing for that could be better since she wouldn't tour for that anyway. I think a "classic country" album would also be really great to have from her. I don't know that she would want to release a "regular" album (CU7) without having a tour. But maybe that's just my opinion. Another thought. Is it possible she uses this time to try and get pregnant again? Or do we think that ship has sailed now that she has two little ones?

I remember she mentioned she wanted a big family, so I guess whatever happens on that front happens. I know she's talked about adoption too, especially when Isaiah is a little older. I wonder if they would adopt baby #3 after her consecutive miscarriages. As for the Christmas album...I think you're finally gonna get your wish tbh ;) music producers/singers have been making music virtually so it's quite possible she'd be able to do something during this time. My fear with the tour thing tho is that we won't get CU7 until at least 2022 because we won't get a vaccine until roughly the fall of 2021--and that's the quickest time it'll take to get here. Tours and things like that might be called off even in 2021 (although I truly hope not)

It's unfortunate that it is so underrated even among her own fanbase. I loved the single and it has aged so so well. I think it was a brilliant choice of single, one that was perfect for her image at that time, and one that made her so relatable to the fans of that age group.

Is it possible she uses this time to try and get pregnant again? Or do we think that ship has sailed now that she has two little ones? Considering what she went through last time trying to have a baby, they’re probably shifting to “if it happens, it happens”, instead of actually trying... I mean, this has always been Carrie’s take on it publicly, but considering she had three consecutive miscarriages, it seems as if they were “trying” in some sort of way with their second. So I guess I’m just saying that if it happens, I don’t think it will have been “planned” in the sense of calculating ovulation and all that. This is obviously just a premonition based on previous events, but we clearly have no clue since Carrie has never been one to share that kind of stuff with the world...

I don’t think their reproductive plans are really any of our business and until (or if) she announces another pregnancy and it complicates the recording/album roll out/touring process, it has no place in the discussion. It’s actually infuriating for anyone in this thread to even have an inkling that they are privy to how these two people—whom we do not know—are planning their family.

Carrie has been relatively public with not only her struggles regarding miscarriages, but also about her philosophy in terms of growing her family. I was using that to make predictions, not psychoanalyzing. There isn’t much to talk about, and Carrie’s family does impact her career, so I don’t think this type of discussion needs to be off limits. Guessing when and if someone will have a baby and its potential career impacts isn’t against the rules, as far as I know.

She discussed the miscarriages after-the-fact, and has previously mentioned that she wants a large family, yes. But it is not relevant UNTIL she is actually pregnant and said pregnancy impacts her career. Otherwise it’s baseless speculation. The more timely question to explore is how COVID-19 may impact CU7, its roll out, and accompanying tour.

I guess I just don’t have an issue with speculation, and I completely disagree that it’s irrelevant given what we do know. Also, COVID-19 will likely delay whatever timeline there is for CU7, but we have no clue if she’s even working on an album so I guess that’s speculation, too. Maybe we get a Christmas album? But that’s only speculation... I get your point, I just don’t think shutting down speculation is necessary when all there is to do is speculate the future.

Perhaps it’s my own sensitivity regarding female reproduction that colors my perspective. You’re perfectly entitled to speculate as you may, as this is a shared discussion place. ETA: in light of avoiding being misinterpreted, I don’t struggle with fertility. I only wanted to point out that whatever Mike and Carrie decide is between them and it’s not really our business.

I was more concerned that we were verging off into a discussion that is tangentially related to Carrie's career, but not yet totally revelant. But, to be fair, it's a public forum and we're free to exchange and debate ideas!

Well, point is, you don’t get to have an ‘opinion‘ on how many kids they want because you plainly don’t know. They’re certainly not consulting you regarding their reproductive plans.

Are you saying I can’t have an opinion on how many kids I think they’ll have? If they want more, that’s fine with me. I agree, they’re not asking me on how many kids they should have. But, I surely can say how many I think they’ll have. The last time I checked I lived in the USA where having an opinion wasnt something left to someone else. We’re all stressed out from this pandemic so I’ll just pray for you.

I don’t know about y’all, but I’m planning to listen to Carrie’s ‘Stagecouch’ set on the SiriusXM app on my Amazon Firestick. Sweatpants, a glass of wine, and scrolling Instagram in bed. This is basically my dream concert. 😂

In a perfect world, she’d have thrown in “You Won’t Find This” for good measure, but such is only my dream.

She sounded fantastic! Definitely makes me want an acoustic album. I love her voice, and as much as it shines with big production, there’s nothing like hearing her voice over some guitar chords...
I wish she’d do a Facebook live concert or something; a lot of artists have been playing music on social media - I know she’s got her hands full enough with the family, but I just wish she’d give us a little treat.

That set was outstanding. She truly sounded wonderful. That version of “Drinking Alone” was as excellent a vocal performance as she’s ever given. And we got SWISLY and “Dirty Laundry,” too? We got spoiled, y’all.

Her voice has never sounded better - crystalline clarity (reminds me of Trisha Yearwood at her peak), tone, inflection, upper and especially lower register, and confidence. She is one of a few mainstream artists today, who at 15 years in the business, literally sounds better on these acoustics than on her recordings, is at her vocal peak as well as artistry peak, and has not changed one bit from being one of the nicest, down-to-earth, big-hearted human beings. A++ vocal performance. Thank you so much for sharing. I didn’t know how much I needed this- especially ‘Someday’ !
