Carrie Underwood has just released a spiritually drenched music video for Something in the Water that features a 16-member choir and 12 dancers. The stunningly beautiful dancing was choreographed by the So You Think You Can Dance star Travis Wall, who said the experience was ‘one-of-a-kind’ – “It was amazing working with her — I don’t think she ever worked with that many dancers, but she was super sweet. We were all freezing from dancing all day in the water, but the moment Carrie started singing — it was like the water warmed up, everyone relaxed and it all came together perfectly.”

The video was launched yesterday (November 6) just after the country superstar had performed the song at the Country Music Awards (CMAs) – which she was co-hosting with Brad Paisley. The video was directed by Raj Kapoor and sees the choir, the dancers and Carrie herself in the water for the duration of the 4-minute clip. “We took it in a direction that was probably not what most people would think,” Carrie commented. “We just made it joyful and happy and uplifting.”
Something in the Water is featured on Carrie’s next album – Greatest Hits: Decade #1 – which is due out on December 9. It seems incredible to think that its been 10 years since Carrie was crowned on American Idol – and since then she has had an incredible 18 Nº1 hits! This new song is so far performing better than any of her other hits, notching up 125,000 sales in the first week alone.
Last nights performance at the CMAs will probably be Carrie’s last for a while – already 3 months pregnant Carrie is expecting a boy in Spring next year!
