Did anyone happen to catch Carrie Underwood's performance of her latest single, "So Small" on the Tonight Show the other night?  If you didn't, you missed one of the greatest performances of one song sung live that I have ever heard.  I am a major music lover and I think that Carrie Underwood is even better singing live than she is on her CDs.  She is incredible!  Her voice is so strong, so commanding, and she hits those high notes without much effort.  I strongly encourage all those who read this posting to go online and find a video of her singing the other night on the Tonight Show.  You will be blown away by what you hear, regardless if you're a fan of country music or not. I am a firm believer that Carrie Underwood owns country music right now.  Yes, Rascal Flatts, Kenny Chesney, George Strait, and Toby Keith rule the roost, too, but in my mind, nobody has a more firm grip on the country music scene than Carrie Underwood.  She's got the looks, the dedication, the talent, and great songs to be the pinnacle of success for a long, long time.  She could very well be the Reba McEntire of her generation and as long as she's around, I'm afraid that there won't be many female awards that won't go to her. Rock on, Carrie, and I look forward to more music from you, especially if it's sung live!!
