As per Windmills:
So, here's an updated list of known cowrites, holds, and likely cuts for Carrie's upcoming album, again with the caveat that there's limited info because Carrie's asked publishing companies to delay registering songs (the Nashville-based ones seem to be respecting that wish - the titles getting out are all ones with a cowriter with a non-Nashville-based publishing deal):
"Chaser" (Mike Elizondo / Hillary Lindsey / Carrie Underwood)
"Clock Don't Stop" (Chris DeStefano / Blair Daly / Hillary Lindsey) (likely cut)
"Future Daughter" (Ashley Gorley / Claude Kelly / Carrie Underwood) - not 100% confirmed this was co-written for the new album, but I think it may have been.
"Microphone" (Mike Elizondo / Hillary Lindsey / Carrie Underwood)
"Pawn Shop Diamond" (Steve McEwan / Maren Morris / Carrie Underwood)
"Renegade Runaway" (Chris DeStefano / Hillary Lindsey / Carrie Underwood)
"Something In The Water" (Chris DeStefano / Brett James / Carrie Underwood) (likely cut)
"The Girl You Think I Am" (David Hodges / Hillary Lindsey / Carrie Underwood) (likely cut)
Songs on hold (NOT confirmed as cuts):
"Fighter" (Johan Fransson / Audra Mae / Tim Larsson / Tobias Lundgren)
"Lighthouse" (Felicia Barton / Meghan Kabir)
A trio of additional holds, also not confirmed as cuts, courtesy @Frntporchjunki
"Black Gold" (Chris DeStefano / Josh Kear)
"Red Roses Black" (Chris DeStefano / Josh Kear)
"Junk Yard" (Chris DeStefano / Josh Kear)

I actually think this is good news and they may now plan to release the week of Black Friday, where we thought Garth was going to be - right before Thanksgiving. That means, she has the CMAs to promote the new single and album (imagine all the commercials) and then they drop in time for the holiday shopping rush. Epic!

I would say no because now I think Carrie will be releasing November 25th Black Friday week. I don't think her album will be released CMA week because the Doobie Brothers Tribute Album which is on Arista/Nashville is being released that week I think. I believe I saw that over at the Pulse board. Anyways, I am getting all excited that we may actually have a new single next week and a new album in November! Just hope all of this happens!

I'm not convinced that plans for Carrie's new music will be, in any major sense, built around, or altered by, what Garth Brooks is doing. I think Garth and Carrie are likely to be seen today as predominantly different artists, appealing to predominantly different audiences. Significant parts of Carrie's audience have grown into Country Music at a time when Garth was absent. Since Garth's re-emergence, he has been largely a "Las Vegas" artist. This implies a "static" concert fixture, appealing mainly to an older, more affluent audience. Carrie's touring has been to a more immediate, "revolving" audience, spread among many cities, and appealing in large degree to today's radio audience. Garth's release is strongly tied up with his launch of a digital music store, which by his own admission, is intended as an alternative to i-Tunes. Carrie's album and single market is already used to existing outlets. The advance song that Garth posted did not suggest to me a likely mass appeal across Carrie's audience.
There's also the question of radio - where Carrie is the dominant female player. The idea that some fans hold that the "industry" is against Carrie is heavily coloured by the critical and award situation - but that is largely irrelevant to the release of her new music. The radio part of the "industry" plays Carrie significantly more than any other current female artist. There will be eager anticipation and readiness for new Carrie solo music. How radio treats the new Garth Brooks music is also largely irrelevant to that eagerness. Mainstream Radio currently treats female artists very badly - but, even so, it has to vary the mix, albeit to the limited extent that it allows, by playing some female participation - and Carrie is, and has been for some time, the top female radio choice in the format. She's been out of new play rotation for some time now - and much of radio will be almost as keen to get a new single as we are.

agree. Garth and Carrie are on the same label- so perhaps they decided to put Garth out first as Carrie is going to be too busy CMA week to promote it. Garth may have agreed to forego Black Friday week as he can put the album on sale that week anyway.
There is still hope for a 2014 release to be honest!
Worst case scenario-- if we get the Lead Single 9/29 as rumored, at least we are getting that! So I am happy either way. I was just so bored waiting around for news. haha

I know I know this is off topic. Blah blah. But there is a rumor that Adele is dropping her album next Thursday. I know some of us are fans of hers and this is a massive album.

Plus Garth and Carrie are now on the same label, so there is no way SONY would put one against the other, etc. I think SONY will make sure that both have a chance to go number 1.
They may screw Carrie at award shows-- as you said- but they are not going to screw her Album sales or radio play as that makes them more $$$$. lol Label Greed I can accept as long as Carrie benefits too. lol But I still hate how Carrie is treated at award shows.
But in any event, I think they will find a way to allow both Garth and Carrie to have number 1s on country their release week. Number 1 All Genre is hard to say as it depends who else is releasing that week in other genres.

Back to Carrie though. I am feeling pretty good about a Black Friday week release. I could be wrong. But even if not then I think we will have it by the end of the year.

Really??? I had not heard that! If so-- YES! Bring it on! I love her! This won't affect Carrie as Carrie is likely not releasing till late November anyway- if 2014.

why on earth would you say that? Confused.
The release date of a single has absolutely nothing to do with Garth Brooks' album release on November 10.

Could be. haha She was definitely in a good mood! So that means the leaked date of 9/29 did not bring her down. Maybe she is as excited as we are! haha

That is so true, but other than the manipulated award shows, no one ever hears of the the other women of country. Carrie rules everywhere else.
