Re: Carrie Underwood

I'm more of an American Idol fan than an overall Carrie Underwood fan but I think her and Kelly Clarkson were the best investments the show ever made. I also think they are the most talented with the most potential to grow and maintain longevity!

*thinking of doing Kelly Clarkson thread*:think:

Carries voice is amazing and like she did with songs like Before He Cheats her crossover potential is huge! This shows when she does justice to a Motley Crue classic:

Carrie Underwood-Home Sweet Home


My favorite thing she's done is knocking this Pretenders song out of the park!

Carrie Underwood-I'll Stand By You

Re: Carrie Underwood

Opposite of my pal Sooty, more of a Carrie Underwood fan and not an Idol fan at all.:D

I like Carrie fine, I would have dinner with her anytime.:heybaby:

I am surprised Foxy to see you in this section, but variety is the spice of life.

Re: Carrie Underwood

I have her "Carnival Ride" CD...

And you are right, Thumper, she is a doll baby. I am not sure she has the the longevity that Sooty is talking about, she hasn't made quite the splash in the country music industry that Kelly Clarkson has, and if she crosses over, it will be to pop music where singers are a dime a dozen. I will admit, I do love to hear her voice.

Maybe she will cross over and take up where Britney Spears left off...:D

This is pretty cool duet between Randy Travis and Carrie Underwood. I Told You So has long been one of my favorite Randy Travis tracks. I think this is a nice rendition of this classic track of his.

I've given this video a listen a number of times and every time, it really chills me. Carrie's voice is just amazing. I don't think I'd be too far out of line if I said she might be the best female country voice, EVER. Not just a great voice, but I (personally) can feel a lot of emotion in her voice when I listen to her. I can't say that about most vocalists, but I can really feel it in her music

:bow:

I really hope she has a long career. I'm not a fan of American Idol, AT ALL!, but I'm glad she made it onto that show. Definitely a launching pad for her career and in my opinion, the most talented voice to ever walk across that AI stage.

Carrie Underwood has brilliant pipes. I also loved her in the recent Sound of Music Live on TV the other month.
