^ trea3123 uploaded a video of 'You Won't Find This' with better audio than mine: If the cd is released then the only thing I worry about (as a Carrie stan of course) is sales. I really want her to get this years christmas sales and I feel when albums are released in Jan and Feb and such they never sell as well. THough if they do try really hard to achieve perfection with this cd then maybe a smash hit will propel it to high sales anyway...I don't know. it just makes me nervous... Eh. I'm pretty confident that Carrie's gonna go at least platinum with or without the holiday sales. The only concern I really have is regarding the single choices. They were botched last time around and I don't wanna see that happen again.

Hmmm I always said "Undo It" was my favorite Carrie single, it's sales are very telling. :) As for the next album, based off that new interview I definitely don't expect it this year. Here's hoping it's released next May!

One of her best singles and very underrated imo.

Just curious, since Carrie said in the Billboard interview that she's going into the studio this summer to record and implied that she only has a little bit of writing left to do once she gets back from Australia, why do you think we won't get the new album until next year? Most of the recording for Play On happened back in the summer of '09, didn't it? And we still got that album in early November of the same year.

In my case, I'm more of a casual fan & have no idea how Carrie's recording schedule goes. She made it sound far away in that interview from last night so I'm just going off what she implied.
Can't speak for the others though.

One of her best singles and very underrated imo. I completely agree. Carrie needs more songs written like "Just A Dream", and then tone down the production, and it would be perfect. One of Carrie's best songs hands down. It is also Carrie's 2nd most viewed video (by a good margin both ways) on her youtube channel. Maybe the military ties are contributing (based off of the comments), but still it's nearing 19 million views! Excellent for what was a 4th single! www.youtube.com/watch?v=jLntFKtR66g

But I'm really happy and proud of those sales! UI is such a monster, as is BHC. There hasn't been a week where I haven't seen sales tabulated for that song. Glad to see that JTTW and JAD are still selling well. JAD will go Platinum, and I'm so excited for that. It's one of my favorite Carrie songs to date. I'm also really happy with all of the promo FOTF got from Idol and Lauren Alaina. An album track that sold over 100k is easily more than honorable.

I believe they did with Jason Alean's song that KC was featured on and it's been already mentioned on that USA site so I would assume they will continue to track it.

Brad Paisley Feat. Carrie Underwood, ‘Remind Me’ – Song ReviewBrad Paisley and Carrie Underwood have famously teamed up to host the CMA Awards in recent years, but their efforts on ‘Remind Me,’ the new single from Paisley’s ‘This Is Country Music‘ album, could have them pairing up to accept a few of those awards in November. The duet is Paisley’s finest since his work with Dolly Parton in 2005.
Underwood’s vocals are pristine, and Paisley does more than enough to keep up. Late in the song he flexes his muscle in a back and forth spar with Underwood, who plays the role of his wife in this song. Initially it’s difficult to imagine the two friends getting steamy, but that’s long forgotten by the time the two get to an assault of one-line lyrics meant to slap awake any lazy husbands and wives listening.
“If you still love me / Don’t just assume I know,” Paisley sings before later remembering, “You wake up in my old T-shirt / All those mornings I was late for work.”
The chorus plays like a couple rediscovering lost romance over a glass of wine. The kitchen is clean, the kids are in bed. “Do you remember how it used to be / We turned out the lights and we didn’t just sleep,” Underwood asks before Paisley answers with “remind me / Remind me.” Earlier in the song it’s Paisley doing the talking; “Now we keep saying that we’re OK / But I don’t wanna settle for good not great / I miss the way that it felt back then / I wanna feel that way again.”
Paisley is amongst the most efficient songwriters in the format, and ‘Remind Me’ shows his ability to pull emotions with very few words. Only newlyweds will remain blissfully naive to the scene he’s painted, yet somehow this story has never been told before. Or perhaps it’s just never been told by such gifted storytellers.
5 Stars

"Remind Me" is now #10 on iTunes country and #40 on all genres #30 now !!! And #7 on the Country chart! It's even more amazing, because this is climbing solely off of some reviews, some airplay, and word of mouth. No televised performances, no big promotion, etc. :o

Considering that 'Remind Me' is in it's infancy of airplay with only 10-11 million audience impressions as the #26 song on the country charts, yet is already the #7 song on iTunes country and #30 on iTunes all-genre is very impressive, IMO. After this song is performed on television, I think it will become a MONSTER country single without a doubt.

It's rumored that they're saving the televised performance for the CMAs, which could be a good and bad thing because by then, the song will have gone through its prime already. A June release getting a televised premiere in November? That's a little too far off, so that makes me a bit nervous...

I don't know...DYWS got a great second wind sales-wise after performing on Idol. I'm sure RM would see the same. I didn't think that performance of HGTA was as good as the televised one. Not the same level of control, and she's a little sharp in one of the big "greats." But...I still watch that televised one from time to time.

We usual agree a lot on our vocal analyses, but I just listened to the Opry performance from this week again- where was she sharp because I still don't hear it ??? ETA: The next to last "art" at 3:33 is just :o . Her chest voice is so strong and comes purely from her diaphragm and just pierces through the venue. Her voice has really improved with age, IMO.

That note is clearly loud and could have been distorted. Either way, the vocal doesn't get to me in the same way the televised one did, which really is flawless. Plus, I'm being unnecessarily picky. I could say the same of a few of Kelly's notes in her CMA performance with Jason.

In case you missed it, Nan Kelly interviewed Carrie backstage at the OPRY days ago. You can download the HQ divx vid from my site.
