Crazy Angels

"Crazy Angels"
by Carrie Underwood

I really like this song and think it's probably one of the better examples of Carrie Underwood's songwriting abilities. The lyrics are great, and I like her more upbeat stuff. The only thing I'm really not a fan of about this song is how she's trying to sell it as a brand during her performances. At numerous performances, she's defined a "crazy angel" as a "good girl who likes to have a good time," which kind of feels like one of those things that someone else can say about you but is a little forced when you try to use it to define yourself. And, man, is she pushing that identity hard.

Other than that, though, I really like the song. Good lyrics, good beat... this is the kind of country music that I gravitate toward. I'm less of a fan of country ballads and slower songs, so this has been a fun one to listen to since it was released in 2022.
