So, as many of you know, or don't know... I'm not a fan of Country music. It just doesn't speak to me, I can't stand the twangyness of it, and the messages usually evoke a well executed faux vomit noise.
I am also not really a Carrie Underwood fan. BUT... last night on Idol Gives Back - an annual fund raiser put on by American Idol for various global charities - Carries performance was unbelievable.
Carrie sang the song "Praying for Time" and she tore the house down. The words are powerful, the vocals were PERFECT, and the girl didn't even MOVE. She sat on that stool in her beautiful dress and sang the hell out of that song.
It was no surprise when the audience roared with applause and jumped to their feet in the HUGE Kodak Theatre. She owned that three and a half minutes. You could feel it even through the TV.
A brilliantly delivered performance. Bravo.
The live performance of the song "Praying for Time" is available on iTunes for 99cents, the net profits of the song go to charity. Get it!
