I have to agree. I much preferred her duet of "Make the World Go Away" with Brad. "Last Name" is a clever, well written song. But I have to wonder where they are going with the story line that runs through it & "Before He Cheats". (Doesn't quite fit well with "Jesus Take the Wheel".) Maybe they'll surprise us with some sort of twist one day.
I have the CD "Gospel Favorites from the Grand Ole Opry" where Carrie does" How Great Thou Art" and it's a beautiful use of her voice.
There was an interview with Kellie where she was talking about picking songs for STG. She said she couldn't relate to several of the songs they pitched to her and that's when she started writing. You get the feeling she also really has to relate to songs others write before she sings them. That adds so much to her performance. She feels it.
