Thanks to SJ Soule for this story:
News on Carrie the Songwriter
I keep forgetting to post this, but two days ago, when Carrie was being interviewed on my local station, they got to talking about the songs that Carrie co-wrote for her album. She said that she had no idea she had it in her, and that a lot of good songs came out of the effort. She was happy that four songs she had a part in writing made it onto the album. The DJ asked her about the songs that DIDN'T make the album, and she said that a few other artists currently have songs written or co-written by her ON HOLD. That means that they get first shot at recording them when it's time to make a new album. She said that if any don't get recorded, and are still available when it's time to put together her next album, she still might record them. But if someone else ends up recording them first, she said she would be THRILLED. How cool is that? Not only can the girl sing, but she can write too...and other artists are interested in her songs! I can't wait to see who, if anyone, ends up recording her material.
That's a story I hadn't heard. Her songs are on hold by other artists. Great news. Carrie the singer/songwriter, has a nice ring to it.

Thanks for the new thread, Dudley! Already on Part III and this album is just getting started. I wonder how many parts there will be when it is almost over in a couple of years. ;)

^^^That would be a great number. That would be about a 48% drop. Not bad. I hope you're right.

^^^I thought for sure she was gonna kiss the dude. No, not Carrie, she let her alterego cartoon character do it. The song sounds so much better with the video background, like all other songs do I guess. Disney, Carrie, Great Vocal, Fantasy Movie=$$$$$$$$$$$ This will be alot of PR for Carrie and for CR. With the Christmas season coming up, I see even greater sales because of this than would normally have happened.

Just saw the vid, I loved it! That's the most "energetic" Roman White vid I've seen of Carrie. Notes on the vid: Carrie sure has some pretty white teeth!

Does this count as Carrie's first ever onscreen kiss? Well maybe not.

The cartoon Carrie was ugly at first with that huge, angular jaw, but she got Disney-princess pretty soon enough :) <-- I'm still smiling!

lets see if the carriefans people believe him. so many were adamant that they knew carrie and knew she wouldnt play along with the joke.

everyone seems to be forgiving him so hopefully it will all blow over
The music video is sooooooo cuuutttteeee!!! carrie is now going to becoming a disney princess!!!!! yay!!! i think the best thing about this is I can see carrie becoming a huge role model for the disney crowd, and she is the best possible choice compared to britney, lindsey, etc..... yay!
also, does anyone think that carrie should sing So Small at the CMAs acapella? i think tht if she did tht, she would blow EVERYONE away.

Cutest video ever. It's nice to see Carrie so happy and energetic in a video. Although real Carrie is so much prettier than cartoon Carrie.

From the last thread:
Obviously I think Carrie is a real artist, but I don't think saying Carrie is outselling people is the way to prove it. Plenty of people who don't sing well, who don't write, etc. sell well.
