"Rocks Instead of Rice" was co-written by Kellie, along with Josh Kear and Chris Tompkins (the writers of "Before He Cheats").

September 9th is the tentative date. Oooh she'll be up against Jessica Simpson's country album. Interesting. I don't think they'll let that happen. It'll probably be released earlier or pushed back. I think the former is more likely. It's so tentative that BNA hasn't even announced a release date yet. They're still only saying "early fall". But September 9th is the date a cd site has listed.

And I posted this in her DYKYB thread, but it's probably more fitting here... Here's a concert video (clearest one I've seen) of "Rocks Instead of Rice". Kellie wrote this song with the guys behind "Before He Cheats". LINKThere's no way this won't be a single. And I would say there's a very good chance that it will be the next one. I think I have all of the lyrics except the bridge. Can anyone else make it out? Long, white limousine pulls up to a church The sick part of me wishes it was a hearse I didn't get an invitation but I'm here anyway And I don't care if I'm crashing their big day
Well, it might not be too Christian of me And it might not be too nice But I wish we were all just standing around Throwing rocks instead of rice
Long, white dress this must me some kind of joke Virgin? Please! She ain't foolin' these folks If the three of us were on Jerry Springer I'd be pullin' her hair And I'd kick that lying sack of should've known better In you know where
Well, it might not be too Christian of me And it might not be too nice But I wish we were all just standing around Throwing rocks instead of rice
------- sound sweet and sincere ------------------------------

Kellie's started performing another song off the new album at concerts. It's called "Lucky Girl" and it's a country rock song.

Self-titled album titles bore me but I think this album will definitely be better than her debut!

Self-titled album titles bore me but I think this album will definitely be better than her debut! I agree about the title, I'm disappointed. Especially since I think there are a couple songs on the album ("Best Days of Your Life", "Lucky Girl") that would've made good album titles. And the album will DEFINITELY be better than her debut. Kellie's official site just posted the press release on the album:

Im so glad Kellie is releasing another album and I just hope that it can do well(go gold or platiunum). She is truly a gifted artist and I love that she is selling more than other idols who were supposed to be "better" than her "Taylor, Kat, Elliot, Bucky, Josh, ect" I love DYKYB and wish kellie great sucess!

One of Kellie's new songs "Lucky Girl" was written and recorded by Catherine Britt for her last album. You can listen to Catherine's version HERE. Lyrics:Lucky girl She got the diamond but I got the world It's my oyster and it's full of pearls So honey tell me who's the lucky girl You lucky boy Did you tell her she's your second choice Cause I wouldn't be your little toy Ain't no man inside her lucky boy. Guess you finally found someone who's Everything that I couldn't be Whoah oh oh oh oh oh oh I just couldn't see myself as Mrs you can walk all over me So tell me who's the lucky Tell me who's the lucky girl Lucky girl She got the Gucci gown the veil and curls I got your precious box set of Merle So honey tell me who's the lucky girl. CHORUS Lucky girl She got the diamond but I got the world It's my oyster and it's full of pearls So honey tell me who's the lucky girl.

Kellie and her producer changed the arrangement of "Best Days of Your Life"(the song she did with Taylor Swift). The way they recorded it for the album is the way she performs it now, which is different from the video in my original post in this thread. Here's the new version:
I like the new version better! It's more rock than pop.

There's a lot of new info for the album but it seems I'm the only one that posts in this thread, lol. So I've been posting all the new album info in the DYKYB single thread. Guess I should update the original post though... EDIT: OK, I updated the original post. I upgraded a couple of the concert videos. I also added a couple new songs. Kellie said recently that there will only be 10 songs on the album (maybe 11). And we now know what 9 of them are. There will however be 3 bonus tracks.

The video is pretty simple, but very cute and endearing. Her personality is infectious.

Just listened to BEST DAYS OF YOUR LIFE: holy....!!! The song is amazing! I can't wait for the studio version, it has to be a single... it's a really really good song!
BTW, is there any youtube link for the DYTYB video? I'm from Mexico and the CMT's videos don't work for me... :S

It's official! There will only be 10 songs on the album. Kellie just wrapped recording last week.
She also revealed the final bonus track. It'll be a cover of "Let It Be Me". It's a classic song that's been recorded by Elvis and The Everly Brothers, among others. Kellie said she just heard her version and loves it. She thinks it should've made the album but it did not. It will be an iTunes bonus track along with another cover "Don't Close Your Eyes" (originally recorded by Keith Whitley) and "Going Out In Style" (a song she co-wrote).
Kellie said she just picked out the cover! And they're almost done picking out what goes in the rest of the booklet. She said there will be lyrics in the booklet this time. (There wasn't for STG)

Seriously? I don't like that at all. The picture is nice, but the rest of it is horrible.

I don't love it but I don't think it's horrible. It would look better if they did something else with the text. I like the picture and even the little star things. I think if the pink wasn't so bright, it would look better. The sharp contrast is too much, I think. Or if they had the pink somewhere else on the cover instead of just for the title.
And it still looks way better than the cover for her first album.

Yeah, maybe "horrible" was the wrong word. Looking at it again, it's not quite as bad. I still don't like it that much, though.
