Hopefully it's not something like "The Champion".

Wonder if it is going to be called "Paint" as I have heard rumors of her having a song by that title on her upcoming new album? Hmmmm?

After two consecutive eras filled with flawless singles, I've never been more excited for a new Carrie lead single. I enjoy "The Champion" as a pop song but I want this to be nothing like it honestly.

Yaassss, I hope this is the epic lead single smash that I need from her right now!!!!  I am READY for new Carrie music! I hope that sonically she kinda moves away from the direction she headed with the Storyteller era though. While all the singles were great, the dark yet overproduced sound is kinda starting to be beat into the ground for me. I hope for something more like Cam's "Diane" from a sonic standpoint. Something that stands out in a big way for having a modern yet cheery production, and allows Carrie's voice to shine naturally rather than being drowned in a wall of sound. Of course if it MUST continue the dark and overproduced sound, hopefully it is more along the lines of the Blown Away singles rather than the Storyteller singles. Either way I can't wait to hear this!!! |

Country Forum Posting Guidelines1) Post with Content. You don’t have to be perfect about this, and enthusiasm isn’t a crime, but we’d rather have posts driven by thoughts and ideas. If you develop a pattern of posting in the “discouraged” zone below, we’ll work with you to try to correct it, but you won’t get warned unless you’re incredibly stubborn about content-free posting. Anyway, below is the “discouraged zone”, a list of some posting examples that you should avoid: - "I love this song!"
- "Get that smash!"
- "Heard it on the radio today!"
- "This song sucks."
- "#18 on Mediabase today!"
Such 'drive-by' comments don’t really add to the discussion. When posting, it helps if you explain yourself. What specific things (vocals, lyrics, melody, production, etc) do you like or dislike about a song? We don’t need each post to be multiple paragraphs in length, nor are we looking for a thesis or a research paper. If you can explain something in 1 or 2 sentences, that’s acceptable. Just keep in mind that this is a discussion board, not a chat room. |

Anyway...on to a post with a little more substance...
I can't help but wonder if this isn't the same tune Jason Eady recording a while back. I'm guessing not - doesn't seem to fit Carrie's style - although anything is possible.
I'm sure plenty of folks will like this simply because of the artist. I'll be waiting until I hear the song to pass any judgment, good or bad.

I can already tell this is going to be my favorite song of the year. Could this be a ballad? I can’t really imagine an uptempo with that title.

You can already tell this is going to be your favorite song of the year...before you've heard the song...before you've heard the music...and before you've even heard the lyrics??? Ooooookay then. |

I'm excited because everything she's put out barring The Champion for singles has been going on a really good streak of perfection

I understand that the country forum prefers to stick towards serious discussion as much as possible but discouraging people from expressing their enthusiasm to a new single from one of their favorite artists seems counterproductive as well. I'm not taking a shot at the rule itself, just the need to post it in this thread just because a couple people are excited and didn't go on a full-on rant about it. |

Y’all are wild. We haven’t even heard the single yet and you’re already at each other’s throats and chastising fellow members.
Let’s take our feet off the pedal of aggression and enjoy the anticipation of a new lead single without a fight breaking out. If you can’t be trusted to respect other posters, refrain from posting.
