Hey Everyone!
I thought it would be fun if we tried to guess what each song would sound like/be about. I have only heard Good Girl so far, and I have not listened to any demos (so I apologize if some of my guesses are already wrong...haha).
Post what your best guesses/hopes are!
1. "Good Girl" (Carrie Underwood/Chris DeStefano/Ashley Gorley) 3:24 -- well, we already know that this one is a smash hit. Great way to start off the album!
2. "Blown Away" (Chris Tompkins/Josh Kear) 4:00 -- most of us have heard that this is going to be a powerful ballad. I see it as the "Just a Dream" of the album. I remember before Carnival Ride was released, everyone was DYING to know what Just a Dream sounded like...and it did not dissapoint. I think this song will also not dissapoint and most likely will be released as a single.
3. "Two Black Cadillacs" (Carrie Underwood/Hillary Lindsey/Josh Kear) 4:58 - I honestly think that this song will be an uptempo summer jam! Even though the song lasts close to 5 mintues, I think that there will be a long outro with the band playing free-form. I think this is going to be the type of song you blast with the 'windows rolled down and the heat on high' while speeding down the highway. I could be completely wrong though.
4. "See You Again" (Carrie Underwood/Hillary Lindsey/Dave Hodges) 4:06 - I think this song will be about meeting someone at a coffee shop and wanting to see that person again! I think it will be an uptempo song and have a cute storyline to it.
5. "Do You Think About Me" (Cary Barlowe/Hillary Lindsey/Shane Stevens) 3:37 - I'm thinking this is going to be a love song, but also a power ballad. For some reason, I really think it will be in the same vein as "Just a Kiss" by Lady Antebellum. I think that this song could have single potential. This is one of the songs I'm the most excited for.
6. "Forever Changed" (Tom Douglas/James Slater/Hillary Lindsey) 4:02 -- Hmm...this song is harder for me to guess. I think it will be a song to tell the message "since you've been in my life, I've been forever changed". I'm guessing mid-tempo.
7. "Nobody Ever Told You" (Carrie Underwood/Hillary Lindsey/Luke Laird) 4:10 -- I think that this is going to be an uptempo song along the message of "Nobody ever told you what a jerk you are". I'm really hoping that she turns up the sass on this song and tells some ego-tripping guy what she really thinks about him.
8. "One Way Ticket" (Carrie Underwood/Luke Laird/Josh Kear) 3:56 -- I'm hoping that this song is an uptempo fun song about running away (in the same style of Get Out of This Town). I think this could also be similar to "This Time" from Play On. A fun loving summer track! Possible single?
9. "Thank God For Hometowns" (Luke Laird/Ashley Gorley/Hillary Lindsey) 4:01 - I think this song will have a similar message as Miranda Lambert's "Everybody Dies Famous in a Small Town". I think it will pay homage to small towns and what makes them so home-like
10. "Good In Goodbye" (Carrie Underwood/Ryan Tedder/Hillary Lindsey) 4:17 - Well...either there is NO good in goodbye, or she's finally found the good in goodbye. Since it's a Ryan Tedder track, I'm thinking it's the former.
11. "Leave Love Alone" (Gordie Sampson/Troy Verges/Hillary Lindsey) 3:19 - I haven't heard this demo, but a lot of people already have and say it sounds good!
12. "Cupid's Got A Shotgun" (Carrie Underwood/Chris Tompkins/Josh Kear) 3:43 - WOO HOO. I'm excited to hear this song. I think this is going to be Songs Like This x100. I don't know if it will be a single, but I think it will be a crowd favorite. I think she has set her eyes on a man, and cupid's got a SHOTGUN to take him down for her....hahaha
13. "Wine After Whiskey" (Carrie Underwood/Tom Shapiro/Dave Berg) 3:51 - I haven't heard the demo, but I hope this is a really tender ballad. The title is so beautiful, and I really hope there is a powerful message embedded in here as well.
14. "Who Are You" (Wendell Mobley/Neil Thrasher/Claude Kelly) 3:55 - Hmmm....A claude kelly track as a closer? I'm gonna guess that this is actually an uptempo track. I think it have the message "Who are you to tell me what to do?". I think it will be about making your own choices in life....
Those are just my initial thoughts....I'd love to hear your interpretations of the titles
