I think it's going to be weird to not see Carrie on the idol finale, they mention Carrie couple times this year but no appearance yet

Idol producers would be idiots if they didn't ask Carrie to appear/perform in the finale. Unless Carrie has something really important, she should be there.

Hoping 'Keep Us Safe' and the Miranda duet are on the album, even as bonus tracks. I'm hoping she will have some big soaring ballads, some pop bops and some good country songs on this album. I'd LOVE some very old fashioned country songs and I dont care if they dont even 'fit' with the rest of the album/sound.

Just a quick thought: S/O to "You Won't Find This" for being the underrated hero of Carnival Ride.
Also, she's playing 2 sets at the Opry tonight for her 6th anniv. as a member, so keep a look-out for what her setlist is.
ETA: Show 1 - "Wasted", "Temporary Home", "Blown Away"
ETA 2:
-Carrie tonight at the Opry. :')

Since she likely won't have any new music to promote at that point, it might be cool if she re-visited a song she performed during her run on Idol. It could showcase her growth, and just be a general reminder of the success the show could bring. I'd love to hear her tackle "Alone" again, but more so "Crying" or "Could've Been." |

Great idea, or maybe a cover of another song. I would prefer that over another performance of Blown Away. |

First set from tonight's Opry show here: Thank you for posting- she sounds quite tired during this set. Perhaps she has been recording recently for the new record. Does anyone have a link to the second set ? |

Everyone can easily download those two songs on iTunes or find it on Miranda's album. Also, I want new songs that Carrie co-wrote or hand-picked for her own album, songs that fit her OWN vision for the album. Not a Miranda's song that she happened to lend her vocals to. Since she likely won't have any new music to promote at that point, it might be cool if she re-visited a song she performed during her run on Idol. It could showcase her growth, and just be a general reminder of the success the show could bring. I'd love to hear her tackle "Alone" again, but more so "Crying" or "Could've Been." That is a great idea actually. Especially if she sings "Alone". |

I said the same thing about the Carrie Underwood/Miranda Lambert duet awhile ago: I don't think the duet would be the lead single for Carrie's album since it's on Miranda's. But that's just me. It could be on the Carrie Underwood CD since both she and Miranda Lambert are Sony artists. Can't see why that can't happen. |

It is Miranda's song and CD. Why would Carrie need to put it on her OWN CD? What is the rationale for this? She and Brad are on the same label and has done 2 duets with Brad and neither showed up on any of Carrie's albums. Not only that, Carrie's album is greatly anticipated and if she were to add an additional song or two I'd like them to be songs that she co-wrote but never made it to one of her albums. I for one would not want to to see the opportunity wasted on a song that's already made the rounds. |

CDs can hold 18-20 songs, and I don't think Carrie has ever had that many on an album so it isn't a matter of eliminating one song so another can fit on it. Having said that, I would only want the duet on the album if it fits the musical/lyrical theme of the album. If it works in the context of the album, why not have a song on it that people will know at that point? |

Carrie is a confirmed performer for the CMT Awards. She was announced today along with: Luke Bryan, Florida Georgia Line, Miranda Lambert, Blake Shelton, and Eric Church. I think this'll be the second performance of "Something Bad".

If there are going to be fillers on this album let them be new. And personally, Carrie simply doesn't need it. JMO |

There's no point in putting some already-released song on Carrie's album. That, and it's not even Carrie's song.
That's why it's a dense idea.

What purpose does it have on Carrie Underwood's album. Familiarity with one song (as you say) does not in my opinion encourage someone to buy the album. Carrie fans do not need or require such an incentive. They buy a Carrie album for Carrie songs and vocals. If they liked SB so much they probably already have it long before Carries album is released. In addition, It doesn't matter that it is not taking the place of another song, it just isn't required. And to put in there, 'just because' and without purpose, is rather well.....pointless. |

Carrie's fans are going to buy the album regardless; from a commercial perspective, the Miranda duet would be there to pull in her more general/neutral fans. But regardless, I already posted that I would only be in favor of it if the song fits Carrie's album themetically so I don't even think we disagree. |

If the duet were Miranda and an artist like Leah Turner (a brand new country artist on her second single, also on Sony), then it would definitely make sense to include the duet on Leah's upcoming album as well because people would likely know the song after it became a hit. Then if people saw the song on Leah's album, they may be more inclined to give the album a listen or even purchase it. In this case, due to Leah's relatively unknown status, including the duet with Miranda on her album would bring great added value to the overall product. In Carrie's case, the duet isn't going to give that much added value to Carrie's album because she's Carrie Underwood, not Leah Turner, and plenty of people will already be aware of Carrie's album and check it out regardless if the duet is on there or not.
On top of this, Miranda probably wouldn't want Carrie to put it on her album because it may cannibalize some of Miranda's album sales.

"Somethin' Bad" is Miranda's song and will be on Miranda's album, which will be released at least 4-5 months before Carrie's. The single will have run its course long before Carrie's album comes out, and anyone who wants to buy the duet already will have bought it by then. Just as she didn't include "Remind Me" on Blown Away, she won't include "Somethin' Bad" on her fifth album. There just wouldn't be any point.

It is not even needed since this is Carrie Underwood, not some relatively unknown artist. A Carrie fan, whether huge fan or just casual fan, is going to check out her album no matter what. If someone doesn't like Carrie, they are not going to go through 15 Carrie songs simply because of one Something Bad track anyway. Even if Carrie does a deluxe version with 18-20 songs, I'd still rather take fillers like Who Are You. At least they are brand new songs. Unless maybe Something Bad really becomes a massive, gigantic smash, then perhaps Sony might add it as an iTunes exclusive bonus track or something like that, but aside from that, I really don't see it necessary (or happening) at all. |

I think he's bitter because of 'X Factor' being canceled. But... he has a point. Ever since Carrie, stars have been born from 'Idol'. But Kelly and Carrie are on a different level; a level which hasn't been touched by anyone else. |

Carrie Underwood getting a lot of love tonight on The Voice. The two contestants vying for the final spot in the finale each performed a Carrie song. Kristen performed Blown Away and Kat performed Good Girl.

But Kelly and Carrie are on a different level; a level which hasn't been touched by anyone else. You have also included Kelly but Simon said no other idol has achieved the level of super stardom that Carrie has. I tend to agree with him. I also agree with his statement that a number of idols have achieved success in the entertainment business. |

He wasn't implying at all that Kelly hasn't achieved the same amount of success, at least I don't think he was. To argue Kelly hasn't achieved the same level of success as Carrie is ludicrous, in my opinion. I love them both, and they have their domains, but they are both all-around superstars. I think he was speaking strictly in terms of "since Carrie"... |
