Lyrics To Live By!

Oh the smallest thing can all the difference, Love is alive, Don't listen to them when they say, You're just a fool, Just a fool, You believe you can change the world.
Change, Carrie Underwood

Carrie Underwood Sets New Standards For Concerts

Well it's not hard to see why Carrie Underwood won ACM Entertainer of the Year! Twice!!

I set out last weekend on a gals road trip to Toledo to do some shopping and catch a Carrie Underwood concert. Myself being a big fan and the others were just going for the fun and because they like her music. Four songs into the set I was being nudged to hear "she is amazing, now I know why you like her so much". Between the 4th song and the last song of 23 these ladies had danced, laughed and cried multiple times.




Underwood's voice could move you to tears itself ie. Temporary Home, but when you add the massive production that she had emote each song that much more. Each song had its own theme and story going on behind her other right in the middle of it. Just A Dream did see just like that a dream, with a large tree branch coming down from the rafters, with a rope swing on it. Then Underwood comes out in a very southern dream like dress and sing the emotional ballad while swing up high and not missing a beat.

Mama's Song was truly emotional, you could pick out the people in the crowd who were mother's that's for sure, there were not too many dry eyes. As Underwood sat a silver grand piano and sang the beautiful ballad written for her Mother, with pictures of her and her mother from birth, to tee ball, graduation, the golden ticket from American Idol, her Mother was there for it all. The song ended with a picture of her and new fiance spanning all four screen which seemed to be them on a lake very casual and affectionate.

The two hour set was filled with flawless vocals, a production that should set a new standard and all eyes glued to the star who presence commanded your attention and captivated it.

CMA Entertainer of the Year doesn't seem that far off for this super star!

I suggest that all should try and take in one of her shows as she just added a fall leg to this already successful Play On Tour!
