This coming Wednesday, January 23rd, marks the debut of Carrie Underwood‘s music video for her new hit, “Two Black Cadillacs.” Judging by the teaser clip that’s been on Carrie’s website, the video looks to have a spooky, menacing vibe to it, and while the song and the video may have a dark theme, Carrie says that writing the song was an absolute blast.

Carrie Underwood talks about the writing of her new hit, “Two Black Cadillacs.” (:52)
“I was a co-writer on ‘Two Black Cadillacs,’ and it was me and Hillary Lindsey, whom I’ve written with a lot. She has a lot of cuts on my albums, and there’s a good reason for that: she’s awesome, and Josh Kear. And he comes in with this loop, (singing) ‘Two Black Cadillacs,’ like he…it’s kind of that, and we don’t know what it’s about. He just thinks it sounds cool. And I’m like, ‘What if there’s two black Cadillacs, and then one’s the wife’s and then one’s the girlfriend’s?’ And it all of sudden turns into this soap opera, and we’re, like, thinking of all the things that they could do. And I’m like, ‘What if they kill him off?’ Because…and we didn’t know if we wanted to take it there. We weren’t sure, how we could make it all fit, but we chased after it. And we had so much fun writing it, because it really was like a soap opera.”
