Format:Audio CD
The second album from Carrie Underwood packs slightly less punch than her debut, but is still more than enough to further cement her place in the contemporary country hierarchy. Solidly country, this album showcases Underwood as a singer/songwriter with writing credits on four of the tracks - first single "So Small"; the excellent "All American Girl"; "Crazy Dreams" and the comedy track "Last Name". (If you liked Alan Jackson's "I Don't Even Know Your Name", you'll see lots of similarities to the aforementioned "Last Name".)
All the tracks are worth a listen, but some are immediately worth an instant replay. My recommendations are:
Flat on the Floor - a hard-rocking track with attitude
All-American Girl - instant single material with heartwarming lyrics
So Small - soaring first single about not sweating the small stuff
Just a Dream - a tear jerker with a wonderful chorus
Crazy Dreams - catchy beat just slightly reminiscent of Pink Floyd's "Education"
I Told You So - slow ballad written by Randy Travis
Wheel of the World - an easy listening track with inspired backing music
If the four tracks on which she has songwriting credits are any indication, Carrie Underwood has nowhere to go but up - should be a wild ride. (4.5 stars)

i didnt watch the american idol thing, and didnt know she won it.
When i heard this album i have to admit i was hooked! its really good. Very mature voice, yet youthful. And the songs are just pure pop , but have some meaning and her voice for crying out loud is great! shania twain should work with her. "i know you wont" is my favourite, its amazing, something so warm and you can feel the pain in her voice giving it that extra bit of "ive worked hard on this album unlike most artists"
and the best bit is that there isnt any of those filler tracks that seems to be so popular in R&B and pop these days. Even 50 Cent does it!
Overall im sure most people will love this album, its still country but very much pop with varing moods (depending on the song)

I loved Carrie Underwood's first album and was praying that this wouldn't be a disappointment - it's not. In fact, this album is even better!
Every song shows off her fantastic voice and you'll find yourself singing along to a lot of them on your first listen they're so catchy!
There's a bit of everything - some very sad songs that will make you want to cry, some amusing ones (in the same sort of way as 'Before He Cheats') and few that just make you feel good! There isn't one track on here that I skip, which is pretty good in my opinion.

Great music again!
I was a bit sceptical about buying her second album as her first cd Some Hearts was so good. Second albums don't always live up to the first, but this has surprised me. Read more

Brilliant
I know "American Idol - Yawn", but hey! This lady can sing. A bigger voice than even Shania? Probably. More country than pop and a good album, which is my first country album. Read more
