“Something In The Water” is purely pop country from a stylistic standpoint, but draws heavily from country’s Gospel roots and the ritual of river baptisms to create the compelling narrative at the song’s heart. However Carrie also said as part of the announcement that some new music would be part of the Greatest Hits album, and on Monday (9-29) she released a brand new single called “Something In The Water.”Ī wide, sweeping undertaking, “Something In The Water” sees Carrie Underwood carve out the sweet spot for her voice and make an inspiring and faith-based composition the vessel to illustrate the mighty ferocity of her God-given vocal prowess, along with instilling the moments with an elegance and grace that in unison swell to achieve one awe-inspiring performance height. And with a little bundle of joy on the way and Greatest Hits: Decade #1 not hitting shelves until December 9th, this stretches out the calendar even more before a new original album from Underwood may arrive. Carrie has only released four records since 2005, and her last album Blown Away was released well over two years ago. You had to be pretty dim to not know that a new album would be involved in the appearance in some capacity, but it was somewhat surprising to hear that it would be a Greatest Hits package instead of an album of completely new music. On Friday (9-26), Carrie Underwood made an appearance on the TODAY Show to make a big announcement.

And then Carrie Underwood recently announced that she’s with child.
This is the assessment most country music power brokers were forced to swallow when Taylor Swift made it clear she’d be moving on in her career without country, leaving only Miranda Lambert and Carrie Underwood as proven country music females who could actually release singles and have them be heard on the radio.

Just this week she made her Grand Ole Opry debut. In the months since she wrapped The Voice, Emily Ann has been busy touring and working on her debut album. One of those videos shows the then-16-year old perched on a stool, guitar in hand, singing Carrie Underwood’s “Something In The Water.” Not only does Emily Ann slay the challenging vocals of the song, but she gets to show off her impressive guitar skills.
