Recently I heard this tune on the radio.....and liked it.
Carrie Underwood you rock!
Carrie Underwood was born at Muskogee Regional Medical Center, and grew up on her parents' farm in rural Checotah, Oklahoma. She is the third and youngest daughter of Stephen and Carole Underwood (retired schoolteacher of Checotah Public Schools). She has two older sisters, Shanna Underwood Means born in 1970 and Stephanie Underwood Shelton born in 1973, respectively, both elementary school teachers in Oklahoma.
As a young child, Carrie sang in church, and for Old Settler's Day and Lion's Club, local events in Checotah. At the age of 13 in 1996, her manager at the time tried to get her a recording contract at Capitol Records. However, due to management changes at Capitol, it never materialized.
Underwood graduated from Checotah High School in 2001 as salutatorian.
After high school, she moved on to Northeastern State University in Tahlequah, Oklahoma, where she graduated magna cum laude in 2006 with a bachelor's degree in mass communication and an emphasis in journalism.
Underwood is a member of the Alpha Iota chapter of Sigma Sigma Sigma sorority, and a tribal member of Muscogee Creek Nation of Oklahoma.
For two years during the summer, she performed in Northeastern's Downtown Country show in Tahlequah. She also competed in numerous beauty pageants at the university and was selected as Miss NSU runner-up in 2004.
JUST.....AN OKLAHOMA GIRL!
