Lauren has some problems with her high notes - she doesn't have the power that Carrie possesses and Carrie has always had that power factor even as a young singer of 13 - I really like Lauren's voice and believe that she shouldn't try to reach for the power notes - she should just sing in her range and she will do extremely well.She definitely has the talent, whether she makes it big in country music will be up to her fans and the country music industry
Also Carrie has the feeling for this. She's not fake like Lauren who acts like she could never do no wrong. Carrie knows she could be *evil* sometimes
I love her and Lauren. They are my all-time favs. Of course she is better than Lauren here - she's at least 5 years older and more confident. I hope they sing a song together during the finale.
I love Carrie and she sang this song so much better than Lauren, but I think Lauren is more energetic than Carrie. That must count for something. And the judges aren't there to make a comparison between the performance of season 10's contestants and past contestants. I bet they don't even remember Carrie's version of this song. I mean, I watched it last time in december and I didn't remember she sang this song as well. Bottom line, Carrie - point 4 the vocal; Lauren - point for stage presence.
@analya24 I disagree I think Lauren's stage presence doesnt seem to come naturally to her. It seems like she's trying to have stage presence. I don't think she has any self confidence. Dont get me wrong, i think she's great but i feel like she cant handle all the pressure that comes with being an idol. she just comes off as a talented self conscious teenager. either way shes already in the finale so she'll do great either way.
@melirose89 i agree but ya gotta think on that aspect she is only 16 years old the stage presence will come i say by the time she is 20 and also she sings like she does and she i holding back imagine what she would sound like if she wasnt ya know scared she would be better than carrie
@TheClarinetist2009 i dunno about better than carrie, but i noticed that when she performs with someone else she tends to outshine the person shes singing with. i dunno why she does that. i think maybe she psyches herself out. little kids can have tremendous stage presence too. i dont think someone has to be a certain age to have stage presence. but we'll see. with more time and experience she could really wow someone.
@TheClarinetist2009 Carrie has a much more powerful and controlled vocals than lauren. She had this much power even when she was 13. Lauren is not bad though. Carrie is just has incredible pipes that not a lot have.
i agree in some terms because well you got to think lauren is 16 and carrie was like 22 when she sang this and as of again lauren was 16 and i love the comment randy said if u got it you got it and lauren and carrie definitaly got it i just think lauren will grow up and be better than carrie cause well laurens got the pipes she just got to to expand and control then she will be better
@TheClarinetist2009 Carrie has always had this powerful of a voice. even at 13 , her vocals are far beyond that of Lauren's. Age isn't really the issue. Sure, her vocals may get better but she simply doesn't have the bottomless lungs that Carrie has, nor the range to begin with. I do wish the best for Lauren though. she does have talent
@TheClarinetist2009 lol I prefer when a song can be song with charisma and full on reaching the notes. Lauren strained and barely hitting many of the notes but it's ok. Everyone has their preferences. :) she had fun at least.
Why did none of the judges draw any comparisons to Carrie's version when Lauren did this? I think I know. Because Carrie's blew Lauren's out of the park! Their bias toward Lauren is unfair to the other contestants.

Carrie is a country singer, but she can do almost any kind of music so well. That's what I love about her, she has a lot of range and wasn't afraid to risk it!
im a big Elvis fan and this is the best cover of this song ive heard. im lookin for trouble id like to be the man that could look her in the face every mornin when i wake up/
Remember to go on cmt website and VOTE FOR CARRIE!!!! She's up for 3 awards: video of the year, female video, and her performance of "temporary home" on cmt insider. Please give carrie your upmost support! Let's show who's really the country queen. Carrie's given a solid performance-one after the over, and great albums + videos. Carrie's the BEST and cares so much for us fans-let's do the same for her. remember to vote before june!!
I've been looking for this performance literally for the past five years. Thank you for posting it! As I said to a friend earlier this evening, you know a performance is good when you remember it vividly after FIVE years. I definitely remembered it. I also remember missing part of it, getting bummed that I missed part of it, and mad that there was no way to see it again. Thank God for the gift of You Tube! This made me remember just how AWESOME Carrie is!
She is just an amazing performer. Amazing voice. Gorgeous face. But it's her personality that really wins it all for her. She's true. Not many people are like that. God blessed you, Carrie. Thanks for sharing those blessings with us!
