    Carrie was inspired by the book “The Purpose Driven Life” by Pastor Rick Warren, who wrote that this world is a "temporary home" and that when we leave here, it is not the end of existence.

The song was nominated for Best Female Country Vocal Performance at the 53rd Grammy Awards.

  • 16. “Hallelujah” (with John Legend) (2020)

    Share

    A beautiful blend of two amazing voices. Carrie said of the song, co-written by Legend, "I was deep into making the album, and this one kind of came in. He sent it to us kind of at the end. It was like, 'Well, I love the song. I feel like this is a puzzle piece I didn't know was missing, but now that I've heard it, I have to have it. And so, we just put the ask back, 'Thank you for sending, do you want to sing a part with me, too?'"

  • 15. “All-American Girl” (2008)

    Share

    The song centers around a "beautiful, wonderful, perfect all-American girl." The first verse tells the story of a father hoping for a baby boy to continue his legacy, but "when the nurse came in with a little pink blanket, all those big dreams changed."

    Share

    A massive hit for Underwood that sold over 2 million digital downloads. In an interview with CMT, Carrie said of the song, "I think to every woman, this song would be telling a story about someone they know or met or has tried to pick them up in a bar. We're not trashing this guy; we’re just warning these other girls about him."

  • 13. “Undo It” (2010)

    Share

    A super catchy song. Underwood performed the song at the 2010 “American Idol” finale and the 2010 “CMT Music Awards.” Carrie said of co-writing the song, "It was something that it didn't take that long to write, and it's so much fun to sing on stage, and people get into it."

  • 11. “Good Girl” (2012)

(She) meets a man that has a lot of wealth and is supposed to take care of her.”

  • 9. “Last Name” (2008)

    Share

    At the 51st Grammy Awards, the song won Underwood her third consecutive Grammy Award for Best Female Country Vocal Performance.

  • 1.”Blown Away” (2012)

    What a powerful story song “Blown Away” is. It won several awards, including two Grammy Awards, for Best Country Song and Best Country Solo Performance. Carrie said upon hearing the song the first time, "I listened to it on my crappy computer speakers, and then I had to go find my headphones because as soon as I listened to a few bars, I had to listen more closely, and I got chills. I remember where I was when I heard it and called my manager, Ann, and I was like, 'Do not let anyone else have this song! It’s my song.'”
