Carrie Underwood #4

My favorite song by Carrie Underwood is one of her more recent songs, Little Toy Guns.

This song was released on Carrie’s most recent album, Greatest Hits Decade #1. It was written by Underwood, but she also had help from Chris DeStefano and Hillary Lindsey. The main aspect of the song that drew me to it are the lyrics. Carrie Underwood always writes meaningful songs that give her listeners more than “just a good beat or tune.” This particular song is about how she wishes that words were more like little toy guns, something that a person can play with, but that does not hurt another person. On top of the greater meaning of the song, it is also has an allegro tempo with a very rich timbre. Carrrie Underwood also has one of the best voices that I have ever heard. She has an amazing range, and unbelievable natural talent. Additionally, Carrie Underwood truly enjoys what she does, and I think that this makes her a better writer and performer because she is doing what she loves. This song is a great song also because it mixes country music with a little bit of pop and I think that many people would also enjoy it too.
