| Аннотация к альбому Play On Carrie Underwood |
Play On is the third studio album from American country artist Carrie Underwood. It was released in the United States on November 3, 2009. The first single, "Cowboy Casanova", was released to country radio on September 14, 2009. In addition, three promotional singles were made available to iTunes prior to the release of the album.
Background
The album was originally to have included some songs that Underwood wrote with Ne-Yo. One of the tracks entitled "Look At Me" was previously recorded by country singer, Alan Jackson, on the Billy: The Early Years soundtrack. Vince Gill sang background vocals on the track. "Mama's Song" sold more than 31,000 copies in its debut week.
On October 16, 2009, Underwood made a promotional stop in Singapore to promote her upcoming album to the Asian media. The album was released on Nov. 2 in Singapore and various parts of Asia, followed by a Nov. 3 release in the United States. Underwood performed on The Late Show with David Letterman on November 2, and will perform a special outdoor concert at Lincoln Center on Good Morning America on album release day, and will round out her week with a visit to Live with Regis and Kelly on November 5.
Reception
Professional reviewer Stephen Thomas Erlewine from AllMusic.com gave the album 2.5 out of 5 stars. He argues that "Carrie is still nominally a country artist and sometimes will sing supported by fiddles and steel guitar, but this is crossover pop pure and simple, whether it's the thundering rhythms on the Shania-styled strut "Cowboy Casanova" or the succession of maudlin melodies on the preponderance of power ballads."
