There's just something about the way she's talking about and thinking about the next album that just seems different for some reason. All of her albums are like her own babies, but this one will be her first album as a married woman. What with all of her comments about wanting to take as much time on it as possible, not rush anything, make it extra special, etc. It seems like she's striving to not only make an album that she loves and is proud of, but the best one yet of her career. I, for one, am very excited.

For album #4 I want Carrie to have songs that she wrote plus the BEST songs available (SWISLY, type of songs)!!!
We know that Carrie will have many co-write in this album. I just hope that they don't pick all co-writes...
With that said, I want the first single to be a hard country rock song!!! Those are the best to get the album rolling but Isee them going with a soft ballad... I also want POWER BALLADS...If you got themm then use it!!! I want album #4 to be a mix of SH, CR and PO...
I have been dreaming about distant lullaby..sounds so angelic, I also want hear "Can you inspire an Angel"!!!
But I want an HARD CORE ROCK SONG!!!

I think the difference is in the priorities. I think that with all the others, Carrie and the label went into it with at least a ballpark release target date and that in part drove the process. Then the process was to do a lot of writing and listening to submitted songs with in the expected timeline for releasing the album. From that she would select what she thought was the best out of that process. And then they would start recording, etc.
This time, I think she is going into the process differently. They may have a desired release date, but it is not driving the process. I think Carrie's goal is to make every song this new album special however long that takes.

Ironically, I think all the award show snubbing has just taken a lot of pressure off Carrie. So now, like you said, her priorities have changed. She's less interested in when the album will be released, but moreso making sure that the songs on the album are the best they can possibly be. Like you said, however long that takes.
But I sure am glad she added in the part about it probably not being TOO long. :haha:

Actually I'm not sure how to read the "not too long" comment since that is a very subjective statement. It could mean that it will still come out this year. Or it could mean that it will not be really long like Shania.

I would love to see collaborate with Rihanna or someone big internationally outside of country music as that would get her much needed exposure overseas. More movies would rock too.
I hate Taylors management though As they are so over aggressive in your face that they make me want to vomit whenever I see her adds that say history in the making etc. Lol more like historically worst vocalist in history of country music. Lol

Lol true she could mean soon by Shania terms which would kill us all. Lol but I don't think Carrie would ever be that cruel.

Carrie likes to tease us, but I don't think she'd be that mean. lol. I still think it will likely come out this fall. Early 2012 at the latest (but I still think the label will want to maximize Christmas sales, so they might put pressure on Carrie to finish the album sooner).

I think in the last everal years we have seen young women of country have success with albums that are siganture material. TS has had great success with material that is intimately a part of who she is. Miranda has had success with material that is intimately about who she is.
I think Carrie see's that these women are making a statement with these albums and that the music represents them in an intimate way.
She may be ready to have that kind of an experience with an album. Following her insticts and tellng a story. Having rise and fall. Putting something down on tape that will live on to represent who she is as a person.
I think her previous albums have had to serve many purposes for many people.
And this time she may be looking for the opportunity to make something that is purely and simply her.
Like a Revolution or a Speak Now, I think Carrie is ready to make that album that is about her. Not about a system that is required to make money to be successful.
And for that I will wait as long as it takes.
I'm crossing my fingers.

That's what I'm hoping for too. I noticed that in the promotion for PO, one of the things Carrie kept saying was that it was her most diverse album yet, and that there was something on there for everyone. For the next album, it'd be nice to see Carrie focus more on what SHE wants, rather than trying to please all the different types of people who love her music. After all, a great song is a great song no matter what kind of sound it is, so even if the album takes a more traditional approach or a more country approach, if the songs are great the pop-leaning fans will still love it.

Well here's my two cents worth.... Wait ill make it my 4 cents worth because of inflation..... Carrie is a completly different person then she was 2 years ago. First off her growth onstage has been no less then phenominal.. So im sure artisticly she has grown also and she will have alot more life experiences that will mold the creative process... Finding her soulmate is the biggest difference in her life and that has to give her an incredible inner strength and confidence!! You can read it between the lines of her blog that we are in for something incredible and it will be her MAGUM OPUS and i also believe OKLAHOMA WIND was saved for this album because it belongs on Carries best album of her career!!! Man i cant wait!!!!!!!
