Carrie Underwood's Some Hearts, hastily made and released some five months after she won the 2005 American Idol crown, was surprisingly solid and tuneful. For her follow-up, producer Mark Bright steers her toward the big Martina McBride skies, with a plethora of strings and huge emotional crescendos. Underwood co-wrote four songs, mostly with the tried-and-true tunesmiths who made Some Hearts soar. On the torchy heartache ballad "I Know You Won't," she gives a beautifully nuanced and controlled performance, but if that song would suit any number of lush female pop stars from Celine Dion on down, "Flat on the Floor" rocks hard while preserving co-writer Ashley Monroe's Appalachian angst. Still, there are missteps: the easy tears of the unlikely war ballad "Just a Dream," a too-obvious attempt to repeat the sass of "Before He Cheats" ("The More Boys I Meet"), and the Shania-ish bad-girl-on-Cuervo stomp of "Last Name." The big payoff, then, is how much 24-year old Underwood has improved as a vocalist. How often listeners line up for this Carnival Ride depends on their attitude about country music's continual melding with pop, and how they feel about a princess upstart taking home the awards that used to go to her heroes. --Alanna Nash Carrie Underwood Photos More from Carrie Underwood

Carrie Underwood has a fantastic voice, and this is a great CD to listen to. I heard her for the first time on an American Idol show, and she was fab, and I'm happy that I purchased the CD.

I've listened to this album a few times now, and I really enjoy it. Actually better than the first. There's a little bit of everything, Cute..., The More Boys I meet, Last name..Touching..Just A Dream...Even a really good remake...I Told you so. I would absolutely recommend this album to any country music fan out there. Some hearts was good, Carnival Ride is Great. :)

An incredible lady with the voice that will take you away. The only thing better would be having her sing to you in person (I can dream, Can't I?). Awesome! Bruce

Only has a couple good songs. It doesn't come any where close to being as good as her first CD.
