From the latest issue of Country Aircheck: Country Aircheck: The Brad Paisley/Alabama seems an obvious pairing based on the song, but how did the other collaborations come together?
RAC Clark: I went to see Carrie Underwood in concertin Newark last summer and had a backstage sit-down with her and manager Ann Edelblute. We talked about the show and how much I loved “Undo It,” but that I wanted to find a way to make it different. They said they’ve always wanted to do something with Steven Tyler. They reached out to him. The most amazing thing was that we were able to keep it a secret for six months. That was the sweaty-palms part.
I'm not sure if today's session with Keith Thomas, Emily West, & Brandon Jane was a part of the four days that Thomas mentioned but if it was...I really like seeing Emily West in the mix. She's a talented lyricist - 'Blue Sky' slays. And, Thomas had a hand in writing Reba's 'Read My Mind' which is nice enough.

^^Remind Me sounds very promising. I hope it lives up to the hype I've been reading. If Jimmy Carter likes it, and he's not exactly Carrie's number one fan, there might be something to this.

It's funny how split the critics are on Carrie's perormance. Half love her, half hate her. I think it's just that her character's faith is polarizing so people feel such extremes towards her.

I would love if Emily West wrote some stuff with Carrie! "Blue Sky" is one of my favorite songs ever!

Known writer's retreat attendants: - Keith Thomas - 40 #1 Billboard hits (don't know of any specifically)
- Emily West - "Blue Sky" (aaaaamazing song)
- Brandon Jane - ?
- Tom Douglas - "The House That Built Me", Miranda Lambert
- Troy Verges - Carrie's "Wasted" and "Crazy Dreams" (both are just
), "Didn't You Know How Much I Loved You", Joan Rivers meets Madonna Kellie Pickler, lots of Martina, Faith, and Sara Evans credits
Thus far, it looks pretty good. I know Brandon Jane is part of the Country duo Coldwater Jane, but I haven't heard anything about her music or writing skills, so I'll just leave her as a "?" until we get a lead on her.
