NASHVILLE, TN  [Friday Aug.31.2007]  /WMQT.com/ -- Carrie Underwood's, Some Hearts, debut CD is a bit over 100,000 scans shy of hard sales of 6 million copies thanks to the rocket ride of success she's had over the last two years.

It must have felt like the ultimate carnival ride lead in to her sophomore album that will be titled, Carnival Ride when it hits stores October 23rd. THE FIRST SINGLE, ³So Small,² one of 19 tracks on the CD.

In choosing the album title, Underwood found Carnival Ride (taken from a lyric line in the new disc) to be a great metaphor.

She explains, ³You step onto this ride called life, and it¹s a crazy thing you don¹t know anything about, but you get on it anyway. You do what you can to lean different directions to try and get it to go where you want it to go, but you can¹t stop it ­ it just keeps moving. That¹s why Carnival Ride works as my album title, because it describes the wonderful craziness that I¹ve been through over the past couple years.²
