If you haven't downloaded (or purchased in CD form for you old school peeps) Carrie Underwood's new record, BLOWN AWAY, you are missing out. Stop reading, click this link, and download it. Seriously, it is so good!
The whole record is good.
That being said, DON'T JUST BUY THE SINGLES and DON'T PUT IT ON SHUFFLE! I get what Garth Brooks means when he has said that artists put thought and time into the way an album flows. This record needs to be listened to IN ORDER!
I will say, I have been playing a few songs over and over a few times before allowing the record to play on as intended. One of these songs is Nobody Ever Told You. I absolutely love it! Maybe because I feel like it is a song that the Lord is singing over me in this season of life. The lyrics are so simple and so powerful. For me... I need to know what nobody every told me...
Take off all the makeup girl
Shine your light, show the world
Don’t be shy, don’t be scared
You don’t have to hide under there
Let’s throw away all the magazines
Turn off the static on the TV
Wish you could see yourself the way I do
Nobody ever told you
Nobody ever told you
You shine like a diamond
Glitter like a gold
And you need to know
What nobody ever told you
Yeah
La la la la la
Mirror mirror on the wall
Acting like he knows it all
Tells you lies of vanity
He doesn’t care what’s underneath
All hung up on the negative
Doesn’t have to be the way it is
Wish you could see yourself the way I do
Free as a bird,
Up on a watch
Just like a flower growing wild
You’re beautiful, you’re beautiful
Nobody ever told you,
Nobody ever told you
You shine like a diamond
Glitter like gold
And you need to know
What nobody ever told you
You shine like a diamond
Glitter like gold
And you need to know
What nobody ever told you
Shine your light, show the world
Don’t be shy, don’t be scared
You don’t have to hide under there
Let’s throw away all the magazines
Turn off the static on the TV
Wish you could see yourself the way I do
Nobody ever told you
Nobody ever told you
You shine like a diamond
Glitter like a gold
And you need to know
What nobody ever told you
Yeah
La la la la la
Mirror mirror on the wall
Acting like he knows it all
Tells you lies of vanity
He doesn’t care what’s underneath
All hung up on the negative
Doesn’t have to be the way it is
Wish you could see yourself the way I do
Free as a bird,
Up on a watch
Just like a flower growing wild
You’re beautiful, you’re beautiful
Nobody ever told you,
Nobody ever told you
You shine like a diamond
Glitter like gold
And you need to know
What nobody ever told you
You shine like a diamond
Glitter like gold
And you need to know
What nobody ever told you
Nobody ever told you, you shine like a diamond, glitter like gold, and you need to know what nobody ever told you...
