  1. Carrie's next (hopefully #1 — let's get it there!) single is confirmed to be "Mama's Song". She announced it in an interview after her appearance on the Today Show yesterday.

    aisecaj on July 31, 2010 at 6:30 pm
  2. Carrie is a great singer and a sweet person. My favorite #1 songs would be Temporary Home and Just A Dream

    Maryann on July 30, 2010 at 2:34 pm
  3. GAC: I like Carrie Underwoood's songs, "Undo It" and "Cowboy Casanova" they are my 2 favorite songs.i am going to watch her on the today show friday morning at 8:30 a.m. edt. i think i am in love with her and her music.

    JOHN ZIRBS on July 30, 2010 at 1:06 am
  4. Anyone who says Carrie can't sing, obviously hasn't heard her combination of Jesus Take The Wheel and How Great Thou Art! If you have any kind of religious bone in your body, you should know that her voice was made to sing…. country or not (I consider her to be quite the perfect representation of such)…. I could listen to her allll day!

    AshlieG on July 29, 2010 at 11:56 pm
  5. My favorite Carrie singles are "Just a Dream," "So Small," "Last Name," "Before He Cheats," and "Undo It." I like the song "Undo It', but not the video. I've never listened to "Don't Forget To Remember Me", but I will soon.

    taylorswiftfan4ever on July 29, 2010 at 10:10 pm
  6. I love everything about Carrie. She is very beautiful, a Great singer & sweet person. I love (Jesus Take The Wheel), & (Temporary Home), the best. Oh what can I say, everything she puts out is great. She's tops in my book!

    Raymon on July 29, 2010 at 7:38 pm
  7. Just another pop country artist with no real talent. I can count on one hand the true, authentic country artists out there in today's mainstream country music. Why people get drawn into listening to such bubble gum pop like Carrie Underwood is beyond me. Broaden your horizons folks. Do yourself a favor and go listen to a Johnny Cash album, a Merle Haggard album, a Jimmie Rodgers album, a Hank Williams album, a Tanya Tucker album, a Jamey Johnson album, or a Zac Brown album.

    Ward on July 29, 2010 at 7:26 pm
    • If you don't like Carrie, why are you even here listening to Carrie. That seems to be kind of dumb. All you are here for is to bash Carrie. Why don't you just go and leave Carrie alone. She happens to be a excellent country artist.

      robert gardell on July 29, 2010 at 8:53 pm
  8. all i have to say is WASTED

    mike on July 29, 2010 at 6:25 pm
  9. GAC————PLEASE—-You had to intervene and stop this on the last article you wrote about Underwood—-please do something about this one also. It is VERY ANNOYING to come on this board and read the news about the artists and read this garbage. I know you know who starts all this—-PLEASE DO SOMETHING!!!!!!!

    musiccritic on July 28, 2010 at 6:00 pm
    • This is not Garbage! You could not find a better christian a singer and an angel than Carrie!

      Flossie on July 29, 2010 at 5:46 pm
  10. I am thinking the bashers are children that have parents that didn't teach them how to be among other people. Don't care because Carrie is a fantastic artist and will be her long after the haters are gone. Can't wait for her to come back to town so I can see her again.

    Rita on July 28, 2010 at 4:37 pm
  11. Undo it is awful,horrible and a piece of junk. Carries sounds like a sqeeling eel!! She is way to screetchy for me. She's not personable or original at all.

    John j on July 28, 2010 at 12:51 pm
    • Well, it's an "awful, horrible piece of junk" that is now a #1 hit.

      Unless YOU'VE written songs that have reached the top spot on the charts like all of her other singles, you are in no position to judge her like that. Thank you, and goodbye.

      aisecaj on July 28, 2010 at 2:59 pm
      • AMEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

        Flossie on July 29, 2010 at 5:49 pm
    • You all would not know good music if you could hear it!!!!!!!!! comment somewhere else!

      Flossie on July 29, 2010 at 5:48 pm
  12. I'm very happy for Carrie for accomplishing 13 #1 singles. But I also don't want to see people calling names and swearing. I understand you have opinions and a right to voice them, but please don't come on articles just to bash a singer. It hurts the fans too. And if someone is coming on a article to bash the singer the article is about, don't call them names like "troll" for example. Ask them to leave respectively. People if you don't like Carrie, please leave this article and do something better with your time. Please let the Carrie fans (including me) enjoy Carrie's victory with 13 #1 singles. I wish Carrie nothing but the best of luck with her music and her new marriage. Hopefully we will see more #1 singles in the future.

    taylorswiftfan4ever on July 28, 2010 at 11:35 am
    • Thank you very much, TSF4E!

      aisecaj on July 29, 2010 at 7:19 pm
      • You're yelcome. I hope I won't see you calling names or swearing in the future.

        taylorswiftfan4ever on July 29, 2010 at 9:58 pm
        • Sorry about the typo. I meant to say you're welcome.

          taylorswiftfan4ever on July 29, 2010 at 10:14 pm
          • It's fine. And I only do that to people who are truly ignorant and continuously come on Carrie's threads on a daily basis like Kerriebasher, Steve, Bud, Vera, Ward, etc. I'm not a kind of person to consistently be nasty. I'm a Carrie fan, and I try to represent Carrie in the best way I can, but sometimes I get pushed over the edge. It happens to all of us at some point. :)

            aisecaj on July 29, 2010 at 6:28 pm
  13. Kerrie is computer programed and that’s why you can’t understand the words she screams. I like listening to singers that can actually sing good and are easy to understand.

    Kerriebasher on July 27, 2010 at 11:46 pm
    • Learn to spell it is Carrie, not Kerrie

      Gladys on July 29, 2010 at 6:40 pm
    • your jealousy is showing big time

      Linda on July 29, 2010 at 7:07 pm
    • Carrie is definitely not computer programmed and she's got too good of voice to even use a computer on it. I think you are the one that's tone deaf, because I can hear all of her words just fine.

      robert gardell on July 29, 2010 at 8:56 pm
  14. Carrie, I am so happy for you!!! I love all your songs!! You are So sweet and
    Beautiful!! Mike is so lucky…

    Carriefan, on July 28, 2010 at 2:39 am
  15. lovin all these haters right now… keep on bringin' it! you must have a lot of free time to read an article about an artist you hate and then leave comments bashing them….
    your jealousy is delicious!

    kward816 on July 28, 2010 at 1:20 am
  16. Anyone who says Carrie can not sing is tone deaf. She has the most amazing voice ever.
    She is an incredible artist. Keep knocking them out Carrie.

    phoebekate on July 27, 2010 at 9:08 pm
  17. cool. my favorite #1s are all-american girl & cowboy casanova. I also like the night before (life goes on) & mama’s song.

    Ashely on July 27, 2010 at 8:48 pm
  18. I can’t stand Kerrie Underpants, she’s not an artist, she’s manufactured, fake, and all Hollywood, I don’t care what you sheep fans say, Kerrie is terrible!

    Kerriebasher on July 27, 2010 at 8:48 pm
    • the reason you cant stand carrie is because she
      sings better than your artist jealousy will get you
      nowhere and stop calling her names talk about
      fake at least carrie is not autotuned so shut up

      barb b on August 1, 2010 at 6:22 pm
    • stop being so jealous of carrie
      and her name is carrie underwood
      deal with it!!!!!!

      barb b on August 4, 2010 at 3:51 pm
  19. Sorry peeps, Carrie is not an artist, she is a singer/great vocalist. PLAY ON is the worst album of all time. Some songs are good but should never be combine to make an album. Carrie is hardly Country, she is HOLLYWOOD.

    Vera on July 28, 2010 at 12:39 am
    • "Play On" is almost 2x platinum after not even a year of release, and is being raved about by tons of critics out there.

      Carrie's country, and you're sounding like an idiot.

      aisecaj on July 27, 2010 at 9:47 pm
    • Your an idiot. She's a singer/great vocalist but not an artist??? Get a clue!

      carriefan054 on July 28, 2010 at 2:44 am
    • People like Vera is why post birth abortions should be legal.

      Harley on July 28, 2010 at 3:44 am
      • I agree that Vera shouldn't be here saying mean things about Carrie. But there is no such thing as a post birth abortion, and if there was it shouldn't be legal.

        taylorswiftfan4ever on July 30, 2010 at 9:56 pm
    • dont be haten shes the best at what she done and going to do in her life.wonderful husband and a great song writer.

      diana on July 28, 2010 at 1:58 pm
  20. Congratulations Carrie!!!!! I have been a HUGE FAN since American Idol!!!!
    I have all 3 of her albums and I LOVE ALL THE SONGS!!! My favorite is Temporary Home!!! This song has such a POWERFUL MESSAGE AND WAS WRITTEN BY CARRIE! She is an Amazing Christian Lady who I admire so much, because she always THANKS GOD FIRST FOR EVERYTHING. SHE HAS A VOICE OF AN ANGEL, WHO WAS SENT FROM HEAVEN TO BLESS US WITH HER MUSIC! SHE IS AN INSPIRATION TO EVERYONE!!!!!!!!!! MAY GOD BLESS HER AND MIKE ALWAYS!!!!

    NOT HAPPY on July 27, 2010 at 11:55 pm
    • I think it's odd that you aren't happy about what Carrie accomplished.

      taylorswiftfan4ever on July 28, 2010 at 10:24 pm
      • I AM EXTREMELY HAPPY AND VERY PROUD OF HER HAVING 13 STRAIGHT NUMBER ONE HITS AND EVERYTHING SHE HAS ACCOMPLISHED! IMO, CARRIE IS THE BEST SINGER IN COUNTRY MUSIC TODAY!! SHE RESPECTS EVERYONE AND HAS A HEART OF GOLD! I DON'T KNOW WHY YOU THOUGHT I WAS NOT HAPPY ABOUT IT!!!
        CAN;T YOU NOT TELL THAT I LOVE CARRIE, AND I AM A HUGE FAN FOREVER! I AM VERY PROUD OF HER!
        P.S.- SORRY, THAT YOU DON'T LIKE THE NAME I USE, BUT I DON'T CARE FOR YOURS EITHER- SORRY, BUT NOT A TAYLOR AT ALL AND NEVER WILL BE! I JUST DON'T LIKE HER VOICE OR MUSIC, BUT I AM NOT A BASHER , THIS IS JUST MY OPINION!

        NOT HAPPY on July 29, 2010 at 6:31 am
        • I'm proud of Carrie too. She's a good singer. But Taylor will always be the #1 singer in my heart. I understand you don't like Taylor and I will respect that, you have a right to your opinion. I understand that you won't be happy when Taylor accomplishes something, that's okay with me. But my point is that when Carrie accomplishes something great, I think the name is ironic.

          taylorswiftfan4ever on July 29, 2010 at 9:57 pm
  21. How can someone who can't sing fool so many people. carrie is not country. you can't even understand the words to her songs. wish i could undo her

    donna on July 27, 2010 at 11:41 pm
    • Carrie can't sing?

      You've established a new level of stupidity for all Carrie haters.
      Go away, you ignorant troll. No one wants you here.

      aisecaj on July 28, 2010 at 1:47 am
    • Please go to a doctor to have your ears checked because you obviously can't hear correctly.

      carriefan054 on July 28, 2010 at 2:52 am
    • For someone who can definitely write bad comments–tells me you are not illiterate buttttt to say you can't even understand the words of Carrie's songsssss—men you just made a new meaning to illiteracy. Carrie is one of the very few singers that has good diction especially when she sings so BACK OFF____ STUPID!!!

      lolli on July 28, 2010 at 2:53 am
    • Next time take your head out of your ass when you listen to Carrie sing. You'll hear better. She's amazing.

      Harley on July 28, 2010 at 3:42 am
    • If you can't say something nice, don't say anything!

      Elle on August 2, 2010 at 3:36 am
  22. carrie has brought me to country music also, just love her to death, number 13 wow, wow, wow, you go getta dirl!!

    bobbalynn on July 27, 2010 at 10:38 pm
  23. Carrie bigg fan mike is a very lucky guy to have cause you are sooo SWEET,CARRING,NICE,BEITIFUL you to are such a great couple i love all of your songs my favirote 2 r Undo it and cowboy casonva i have been to one of your concerts you rocked love ya always Kate

    Kate on July 27, 2010 at 10:37 pm
    • you are soo right

      Kate on July 27, 2010 at 10:50 pm
  24. Carrie is absolutely the best. To be sure, some songs are better than others, but she is in a class all by herself. Imagine, 13 No. 1's. Truly amazing. As for favorites, Temporary Home, So Small and Just a Dream are right up there. The next No. 1 will also be right up there…..I hope it is Someday When I Stop Loving You….a truly great country song, and I am sure it will be No. 14. Look, count the number of truly inspiring people you know in the world, and it would be a very short list. Carrie in on my short list.

    Dan on July 27, 2010 at 10:32 pm
    • Her next single is confirmed to be "Mama's Song".

      aisecaj on July 31, 2010 at 6:29 pm
  25. WOOHOO! 13! I'm so happy to hear this! I'm sure all of her other singles that she will release in the future will hit #1, too! :)

    As for my favorite single, I have 3 tied for my #1: "Just a Dream", "So Small", and "Don't Forget To Remember Me". JAD is such a power ballad, it's raw, and it's one of her finest vocals ever. SS is all about reality and life, and she gives another powerhouse vocal to make it a hit. DFTRM is such a soft ballad, but it has such a good meaning. Plus, I love the lyrics, even though Carrie didn't write it. They're each fantastic songs. :)

    Love you, Carrie! Keep the #1s coming!

    aisecaj on July 27, 2010 at 9:41 pm
  26. Isn't it nappy time for you?

    aisecaj on July 27, 2010 at 9:36 pm
  27. Absolutely loved Carrie when she was on idol. I think i bought her first CD the day it come out. Pretty much like every song on it. I don’t have her second CD, but i thought all the singles released off of it were good except “Last Name”. However, “Cowboy Casanova” and especially “Undo It” are in my opinion absolutely horrible. “Undo It” isn’t even slightly country. I still think Carrie Underwood seems like a great person and she a good voice, but her songs are getting worse

    adam on July 27, 2010 at 5:14 pm
  28. Love Carrie, have since IDOL, love ALL her music, and I wish her MUCH continued success (but don't doubt for a minute that she'll do anything less). She is a TOTAL pkg.

    Luvscountry on July 27, 2010 at 8:00 pm
  29. i recognize that she's talented but she does nothing for me. i think she's just the definition of bland. everything from her songs to her voice to her image — she's just middle of the road and doesn't make me feel anything whatsoever.

    ... on July 27, 2010 at 6:08 pm
  30. great songs.

    bkb on July 27, 2010 at 5:44 pm
  31. first comment was delated, does a negative comment not count? seems so on carries blogs. can't take the comments that aren't in line with the others

    bkb on July 27, 2010 at 5:37 pm
  32. I enjoy listening to all of Carries music,and I have my favorites,so I just play all three cds, and find a song I may nmot have cared to much for and it becomes a favorite.I'm always waiting for a new cd,now that shes married and has a life other than singing,I wonder how long before she gives us number 4,another great seller?
    Congrats Carrie,you have a great voice,keep up the momentum and we'll get to see entertainer of the year three times. That would be great

    Rebekah Schmidt on July 27, 2010 at 5:14 pm
  33. It's really hard to pick one but my favorite would have to be JESUS TAKE THE WHEEL. Here's why:

    It has:

    - Carrie Underwood's voice
    - It's Country music
    - It talks about God
    - It's Carrie's first single

    Eduardo on July 27, 2010 at 4:53 pm
  34. Yeah, I'm not crazy about "Inside Your Heaven" either. And, I don't count it as a number one since it wasn't a country airplay number one. It's some sales thing number one. It wasn't even released to country radio – thank goodness!

    Robin on July 27, 2010 at 4:39 pm
    • It hit #1 on the Billboard Hot 100, which is much harder to score a #1 on. Plus, that was before she released her first record. It was when she was still tied in with Idol. It counts.

      aisecaj on July 27, 2010 at 5:37 pm
  35. Congratulations, Carrie! Carrie brought me to country music and I have enjoyed every minute of it. I have all 3 of her CDs…keep them in the car and I still listen to all 3. I love her amazing voice and her music! Undo It is one of my favorite songs on her Play On album. Keep up the great work, Carrie!!!!

    CassieAnn on July 27, 2010 at 4:38 pm
  36. Love all of them except for "Last Name". My favorite – hmm – that's hard. I think it just might be "Wasted". But, my favorite of her songs weren't released as singles (one of them is hopefully "not released YET").

    And, those are:

    What Can I Say (my absolute favorite and hope she releases it)
    Flat on the Floor
    I Know You Won't
    Starts With Goodbye

    Robin on July 27, 2010 at 4:37 pm
  37. my favorite song of all time is temporary home love that song

    jessie on July 27, 2010 at 4:33 pm
  38. I came to country music because of her. I would listen to a couple of people before her, but then I just started always listening, coming to GAC to find out information on all the artists. But my favorite artist is Carrie and my favorite songs are Wasted, I Told You So, Temporary Home, Jesus Take the Wheel, and So Small. I do really like Undo It, Before He Cheats and Last Name – they are just fun songs to listen and sing to!

    sassy on July 27, 2010 at 4:31 pm
  39. Love all of her songs but Remember Me hits a real cord with me. It came out right as my baby girl got married and moved away. She seems that many of her songs pull on your heart or simply hit home. Can't wait for her next CD.

    Rita on July 27, 2010 at 4:08 pm
  40. CARRIE IS AMAZING. SHE'S HONEST, AND CARING, AND DOWN TO EARTH.
    SHE THANKS GOD FOR WHERE SHE IS. AND CONGRADULATIONS ON YOUR WEDDING. IT'S HARD TO BE ANY STAR, AND MEET SOMEONE. AND KNOW THEY LOVE YOU, AND NOT THE FAME AND MONEY. WHICH HE HAS.
    AND HER SONG'S THEY MOVE YOU.

    LIKE THIS IS JUST A DREAM, AND THEN THE REMAKE. AND CONTEMPOARY HOME.
    LOVE CARRIE, AND BEST WISHES, AND HAPPINESS, AND GOOD HEALTH
    GOD BLESS

    LORI on July 27, 2010 at 3:23 pm
  41. carrie has a way of drawing you in she
    is an amazing artist there is no body better
    in my book it is like she was sent down
    from heaven to sing for us!!!!!!

    barb b on July 27, 2010 at 3:00 pm
  42. how wonderful for a fake artists.

    bkb on July 27, 2010 at 2:57 pm
    • WHY DO YOU KEEP MAKING STUPID REMARKS ? WE"RE YOU NOT BOTTLE FED WHEN YOU WE"RE A BABY ?

      Chris on July 27, 2010 at 6:25 pm
    • I want to know what part of Carrie is fake.

      taylorswiftfan4ever on July 29, 2010 at 10:11 pm
    • bkb go back to ts board to call carrie fake is uncalled for
      she is the best vocalist out there and you know it
      so stop bashing her us carrie fans love her and
      support her go and get a life

      barb b on August 4, 2010 at 4:00 pm
  43. It;'s really hard for me to pick a favorite because I have really liked them all ! It's her voice i really think-that draws you in.–and how much emotion she puts in each song.There are other s in country music that have great voices, but somehow I haven't connected to them like I have Carrie. I love her-what i call "stress relief" songs like 'Cowboy Casanova" and "Undo It"–and yet her beautiful songs"So Small, Just a Dream", and "Temporary Home' have personal meaning to me, and have brought me inspiration and comfort. On the personal side–she has a great love of animals-which is something we have in common. Also, a lot of people do not realize she is shy—-which sometimes gets misinterperted–something else we have in common. Carrie in my opinion is Country music's best vocalist. She is really developing as a songwriter and puts on an extremely good show !! Not bad for just 5 years in the business !!!!

    lilstar on July 27, 2010 at 2:50 pm
    • i want carrie iam her host i play cds for her she hot iwant her sing undoit i feel sad i want sing temporary home for me iam crying for you

      ed traugott on July 28, 2010 at 1:02 am
  44. Love every song i have ever heard her sing!!!!! sure hope she keeps it up!!!! absolutely love her music!!!!

    Susan Vacheresse on July 27, 2010 at 2:44 pm
  45. I like all her songs and I like all her cover songs. She's introduced me to music I would never have heard because I am a country girl. Stand By You is a cover she did, Home Sweet Home is a cover she did, Praying for Time she did on Idol Gives Back…I give Carrie a lot of credit for bringing me new music. She did Paradise City with Jason Aldean a while ago and I love it. I suppose I loved her version of it. I also really like how she isn't out for attention. I mean basically I see Carrie as a performer who loves being in concert and other than a couple of charity events, she's very low key. I appreciate that. I don't really want to turn every corner and see her but instead I want to be surprised and excited when she's scheduled to do something. I wish others could follow that example. 13 number 1 songs, continuous, is very nice and she deserves big congratulations for that.

    SBart855 on July 27, 2010 at 2:24 pm
  46. as any artist ever done such a record??? Yeah, it's possible not to really like a Carrie Underwood song. I love the girl, but there are some songs I don't care for!!! Just like for any album!!! Congrats to Carrie, you must be amazed at your own success…:) Good for you girl!

    annie on July 27, 2010 at 1:17 pm
  47. WOW!!!! YOU GOO CARRIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Bozena on July 27, 2010 at 1:05 pm
  48. The deal on Amazon is actually for the Some Hearts album.

    peter on July 27, 2010 at 1:02 pm
    • Good catch Peter… you are correct and we have updated the post to fix that. Thanks!

      @gactv on July 27, 2010 at 3:13 pm
  49. my favorite is uh uh uh uh uh undo it!! haha.. congratulations carrie!

    Country fan! on July 27, 2010 at 12:59 pm
  50. first off, it's IMPOSSIBLE to not love every carrie underwood song, but my favorite number 1's….. probs Just a Dream

    kward816 on July 27, 2010 at 12:32 pm
  51. I understand. I try to represent Taylor in the best possible way. She's the #1 singer in my heart. And I try not to go overboard, and I try to avoid hurting other peoples' feelings, and to respect their opinions. :)
