Description of Some Hearts:
Would American Idol winner Carrie Underwood have landed a major-label recording contract without winning the hugely popular television contest? Probably. The big-voiced Oklahoman has the pipes, the look, the pedigree, and, most important, the emotional resonance to sustain a professional career. As an investment in her future, her label eschewed the easy path in putting out an album to take advantage of her publicity, going for a name producer, Dann Huff (Keith Urban, Faith Hill, Lonestar), to handle half the tracks. It also solicited material from the same top songwriters (Diane Warren, Brett James, Troy Verges, Rivers Rutherford) who stock albums by Hill, Martina McBride, Trisha Yearwood, and Wynonna. "Jesus, Take the Wheel," the hit first single, shows off the best of Underwood's power vocals, while the sexy rocker "We're Young and Beautiful" pulls her out of her ballad-heavy comfort zone, and her autobiographical "I Ain't in Checotah Anymore" bolsters her authenticity. If the young performer oversings on occasion (the overwrought bonus track, "Inside Your Heaven"), and settles for too many generic themes, she still surprises in her ability to go head-to-head with country’s reigning females. Will Underwood really survive to be a contender for the Martina throne? Let's just say that American Idol judges and voters picked the right contestant. If the posturing Bo Bice had won, rock stars would hardly be quaking in their boots. --Alanna Nash

Some Hearts Reviews:
quite good 
2009-10-07 - the song "Jesus take the wheel" is worth buying the CD for. It's one of the best songs I've heard in the last 3 years. The other songs are good, but pale in comparison to this song.
Tripe... 
2009-08-26 - Wow. Two lines on the song 'Before He Cheats' sum Carrie Underwood up for me. They have to do with 'bleached-blonde tramp' and 'White trash version of Shania Karaoke'. You can figure the rest out.
Carrie My Girl.............. 
2009-06-09 - Highly recommend this CD, Carrie is a true winner in my book. She hits home with her lyrics and I do love to listen to another Southern Gal like me!
SOME HEARTS

Carrie
2009-05-07 - She is a great artist. She is one of a few celebs I would love to meet. She is so talented, pretty, but still down to earth. Got this album at a great price with very fast sipping.
