I'm not a big fan of this cover either... but that is one scary description of the cover LOL Yea, that's some crazy imagination. I just looked at it and thought, hmm nice pic. Considering how much Carrie loves horror movies, she would be proud of his imagination

^I don't know about the video--haven't heard anything yet, so I personally wouldn't assume that just yet. It could be, but it could also be another week or so yet.
56 stations reported adds for BA today, making for a total number of station adds at 85 on the adds date. I'm expecting BA to move up to #40 or maybe even #39 on tonight's 7/21 Billboard chart.

The video will not come out until the winning radio station gets to view it and the contest doesn't end until the 12th

I heard this once last week and was surprised to be hearing it so early, but it sounded great on the radio!

Heard this today in its entirety, and it's such a radio-friendly song. I can't wait to see how far this one goes. :)

^^Yea, this will be a test for country radio and it's listeners. BA is not exactly traditional, but it has a country feel and theme. Country music is being streched and prodded in all directions these days, but it always has been. The country I hear today is not the good old boys country of 1970, 1980, or 1990. Artists like Carrie have to tweak and change it to keep it fresh. I'm glad she went out on a limb with this one. I think she's earned the right to do it her way. If country radio decides it's not country enough for their listeners, the millions of Carriefans will revolt. It won't be pretty.

^^Yea, the Healthcare thing was a shock, but kinda quieted down now. Now, the whole citizens United decision, that will be with us forever I'm afraid.
countryhistorian, What do you think about Blown Away, the single. Problems for Carrie, or not?

Country music is being streched and prodded in all directions these days Just imagine the same country station playing 3 new singles in a row – "The Wind", "Blown Away", and "Kick It In The Sticks" – you'd basically go on a musical roller-coaster from bluegrass, to pop, then rock. Throw in an Alan Jackson or George Strait tune for good measure, and you've got some serious variety.

Carrie has 2,500 Whitburn points as of this week and ranks as the 120th biggest country radio artist ever by this method. Do you think she's going to 5,000? 7,500? She has done so much in so short a time.
I'm in favor of turning this board into a forum for discussion of Supreme Court decisions. Sure, that'll definitely lighten up the mood. And I'm sure we have numerous experts. Does anyone here want to write a 10 page paper on Marbury v. Madison: Judicial Overreach or Exercise Of Checks And Balances? I'll be happy to grade it.

Don't count on that for "Citizens United" if the president's re-elected, there will be 2-3 justice changes which could change it from a conservative court to a more liberal one. As for this single, it makes a whole heap of sense for it to be the single. I like the epic feel of the production. It suits a song like this.

Love love love this song. Echoing others, this is such a nice departure for Carrie. I was worried after Good Girl that she was seriously in danger of only releasing sassy songs, but after this song/album, I am so happy :)

She has done so much in so short a time. She's moving fast enough that I can see her breaking 5000 easily. 7,500 is maybe out of reach but I'd like to see another female in the top 20 so I'll hold out hope she can make it that far. Top 10 would be amazing after that but like I said I won't hold my breath for top 20, so I'm really not expecting top 10, especially since I think Tim McGraw and Kenny Chesney may raise the bar a bit. As of right now she's the 25th biggest female point getter, I ecpect her to easily place top 10 for just females, which would knock out Lynn Anderson :( In the next month she'll pass Donna Fargo and possibly Charly McClain. So She's on a roll, and it'll be interesting to see where she'll end up.

A San Antonio radio station won the contest to have the 'Blown Away' video premiere party there, and they are having it on July 28th: www.kj97.com/cc-common/contests/index.html?id=192800So we should have the video in about 2 weeks or so, depending on how long after the party they send the video to CMT/GAC.

The DJ's on KJ97 have been HEAVILY promoting this the past couple weeks or so. Considering the amount of other stations in the country and number of markets larger than San Antonio, I'm really shocked we won the contest. But that is too cool. I'll have to keep track of this and see how to be a part of it.

Found the music video synopsis on Tumblr! NOT REAL. Fan just thought of it on her own.
I'll keep it here for enjoyment's sake.

That music video treatment is not official; it was a dream scenario thought up by a fan.
