Can’t Stop Loving You – Aerosmith & Carrie Underwood

Rock band Aerosmith have released their first single off their upcoming album, Music From Another Dimension, and it’s a country-influenced track with Carrie Underwood on the track.

[Tyler:]

I fell from Holy Moses Mountain
Where love’s a slippery slope
And all the others I’ve been hangin’ with
Never gave me too much rope
Then one day she came to me

Love at first sight head to toes

I love her wild, a mountain child

And let me tell ya how she goes

And here she climbs

And I can’t stop loving you
Cause it’s all I wanna do
Yeah the world needs more of this
Tell me what you put into that kiss
Now keep it comin’ on
Let me hear my favorite song
Yeah you’re all I wanna do
Cause I can’t stop loving you

[Underwood:]
Got me a good old timey cowboy
He got my picture on his fridge
And the first time that he kissed me
We was high up on the ridge
And then we came down from that mountain
On a ride with mama kin
And for all it costs for getting lost
There ain’t no better sin
Here we go again

You know I can’t stop loving you
Cause it’s all I wanna do
Yeah the world needs more of this
Tell me what you put into that kiss
Now keep it comin’ on
Let me hear my favorite song
Yeah you’re all I wanna do
Cause I can’t stop loving you

[Underwood + Tyler]
When I wake up and see your face
All wrapped up in that pretty lace
In fact there’s nowhere else I would rather be
Than all tied up in this rhapsody in blue

Hey, I can’t stop loving you
Cause it’s all I wanna do
Yeah the world needs more of this
Tell me what you put into that kiss
Now keep it comin’ on
Let me hear my favorite song
Yeah you’re all I wanna do
Cause I can’t stop loving you

Quick review: Not a bad song. Carrie Underwood sounds quite sultry on it, which is a departure of what she usually delivers. The country influence can be easily heard, which makes this song countrier than the current Billboard Hot country song. The rock style of it i also not very current, with prominent 80’s rock influence. Fans of both artists will like it as it’s not a drastic departure from the sound that they both usually offer.

Carrie Underwood & Steven Tyler Rocking CMT Crossroads

For those who thought Carrie Underwood didn’t have it in her, she just proved you wrong. Carrie Underwood not only shone next to Aerosmith’s Steven Tyler, she also gave him a run for his money. Not only was the CMT Crossroads featuring both stars spectacular, it was also very rocking.

Prior to the show, Steven Tyler had said Carrie Underwood was the reason he joined the American Idol judging panel:

“You were why I took judging for ‘Idol,’ you are exactly why. Not only could you sing good, but you adapted to this…it’s a pit! It’s a deep, dark, ominous pit. And you get out there on-stage at night with that band, that great band you’ve got and you make people feel happy, first and foremost. All the rest, if people knew what we went through to get out on that stage… you have gotten past that and not a lot of people do – they have to get through drugs and alcohol, booze and divorces and even those didn’t make it. You were a natural at it.”

Carrie, in her turn, replied that Tyler was one of her inspirations growing up:

“I remember as a very small child, I could pick your voice out. Even then, you know that it’s different, you know that it’s special and can pick it out from a million other voices. You were definitely part of what gave me that musical, laid-back, in-the-pocket sensibility on albums and stuff like that.”

So without further ado, the videos:
