Single #3 - Two Black Cadillacs
- Thread starter AdamLikesCarrie
- Start date
I agree with this and the fact that Carrie has always said this was a dark album. Putting a light, happy song next just didn't make sense for the description of a dark album. I think this will be a big hit just like BA.

I was asleep during the announcement! Doh!
I'm happy. I was pulling for DYTAM, but it's always amazing to see your favorite song selected as a single. No WCIS/MS situation here! And I was kinda bummed that I'd have to wait so long for an amazing video, but now the wait is much shorter.
BA and TBC have to compete for awards now, though, right? What a shame. I hope they pick TBC over it since it's the better song (imo) AND a Carrie co-write, and hopefully the video is eerier.

They'll be competing at the 2013 ACMs and CMAs, yes. But the 2014 Grammys should belong to TBC.

Actually, BA and TBC may not compete at the 2013 ACMs because TBC will peak early next year (and qualify for the 2014 ACMs). But yes they will compete at the 2013 CMAs.

"And what do they do about it? Weeelll, they kill him".
I adore this woman :')
I was a little surprised that they'd go for this following Blown Away, as they are darker songs. But I couldn't be happier! I was getting the feeling that this may be the single after Carrie spoke about liking to make big videos recently.
I really hope she performs this at the AMA's, it's the perfect platform. I'm not sure what I'd prefer her to perform at the CMA's... Especially since both award shows are close to one another. However, it looks like there is an opening in her schedule the weekend of the AMA's to shoot the video.
Hopefully the 4th single will be Do You Think About Me, followed by One Way Ticket for the 5th and Leave Love Alone for the 6th.

Yep, I agree, lol
Just thought I would try to clear up that part of the "discussion" since I remembered this description of the song

I'm gonna go on record and say this is Carrie's BEST single to date! Critics have long accused Carrie of playing it safe with her single choices. Well not this time!!!!!! GO CARRIE!!!!!!!

I'm kinda disappointed by this. Not because I don't like TBC (it's among my favourites on the album), but because I think it won't do as well as many of us think. It's a good winter time song I guess, but it's not overly appealing to country or pop imo as it kind of sits between the genres. I'm still hoping that DYTAM becomes a single because I think it's a cutesy love song that she doesn't have many of as singles.

I actually think "sonically" that it is the most relatable.
Everything about the production of this song sounds perfectly set in the story.
Her voice, the instumentation, everything.
My only thing is that it feels like one of the few attempts by her producer to have a song that starts and ends as part of a larger peice. So out of context it starts a little subtely for me and then ends with this "smokey atmospheric tone" that leads you into the light of "Whohh Hoo Hoo" See You Again.
So I actually feel like this song could use a tweek or two for radio to give it a beginning a middle and an end.
But that is just me..
I have always likened it to "American Idiot" by Green Day. It is hard to pull songs out of that album cause they all seem to work with in the confines of the larger work.
2BC has elements of that for me.
The beginning is good, and could remain the same but an official "end" would suit is better as a single.
Where as the way it is in the album is great for the album, but seems to "trail off" as a single.
Does that make sense?

I really like TBC as the next single. It wasn't what I was expecting, but it should work out really well. The video should be amazing! I kind of hope she sticks with Randee for this video because they worked well together with BA. Now that we have the new single announcement, I hope Carrie does sing it at the CMAs. I won't be upset if she does BA one more time, but it would be a great intro to TBC to be performed at the CMAs.
Country radio is going to have some dark songs this fall/winter lol. We've got TBC, LBT's Tornado, TBP's Better Dig Two, plus Eric's Creepin' is still on the charts. I love when country artists aren't afraid to go a little dark and twisted lol.
