CARRIE UNDERWOOD: Laid-Back Laundry

audio

Carrie Underwood knew there was something special about her song “Dirty Laundry” the first time she heard. It had all the telltale marks of a good ole country cheating song, but its the way the song sounds that really drew her in. Carrie says “was so different, it had such a laid-back kind of vibe to it. Yes it’s a…it’s a cheatin’ song this is country music after all, but it was kind of done in a different way, and I just really, I love the groove of the music.” “Dirty Laundry” is the fourth hit song off her Storytellers album, following the number-one hit “Smoke Break,” “Heartbeat,” and “Church Bells.”
