Carrie Underwood performed “Temporary Home” on the the Tonight Show with Conan O’Brien Monday night (Nov. 16).

She also got a little couch time after to talk about the CMA awards, and pimp her Holiday Special on FOX, December 7….

    I’m loving it. She pulls on all those country heartstrings very well. I truly can’t love this song because it’s so cliche, but I love that she knows what she’s going after and goes after it so brilliantly…never an apology for country. I guess the best thing about this song is that she doesn’t have to live through the “can’t dance” comments because dance would be so freaking out of place in this song.

    Yeah, I’m a Carrie Underwood fan but so absolutely not a mainstream country fan…I guess it’s obvious from my comment. It’s awesome that she got to sit and talk with Conan and she did it well.

    Carrie gives great deadpan. She is a very funny girl with a dry wit. I can see why she and Cookie get along so well.

    That sounds dirty! :p Haha!

    This is my favourite interview of her. I wish it was longer.

    And her performances always give me goosebumps, particularly Temporary Home

  • rfb

    Love Carrie and love “Temporary Home”.

  • windmills

    It’s Carrie and the Amazing Technicolor Dress!!

    LOL I kid. Temporary Home for the next single please! It’s looking more and more likely anyway. I loved that performance and I love that song. The sound was a little bit off for me but that’s OK.

    The interview was fun too! The part where she threw Brad under the bus was pretty funny.

  • leilamaurizia

    She was on a roll in that interview. Even the “two whole hours” was funny :)

    Can I just say how much I love Carrie’s promo sked this week? Conan, then Ellen on Wednesday, Kimmel on Thursday, and the American Music Awards on Sunday. She has bigger TV appearances this week than on opening week! The promo roll-out for Play On is definitely much, much better than that for Carnival Ride.

  • SashaB

    Wow. This is a stunning performance. I love this song.

    I hope she sings this on the AMAs this Sunday. She’s getting such fabulous promo. Another week of late night television. Wow.

  • leome

    That song is so beautiful! I think Carrie gets a bit emotional when she sings it.
    And LMAO, that short interview was funny. haha
    And they better not cut any of the Cook songs from that special, lol.

  • leilamaurizia

    I hope she sings this on the AMAs this Sunday.

    She’s performing Cowboy Casanova, with at least one male dancer this time around. From the dancer’s twitter:

    Carrie advises idols to stick to they type of music the fans voted you for.

  • Trina

    This was amazing. I actually love TH even more than CC so I’m happy she sang this. Do we think this might be the next single?

    It’s looking more and more like it. CMT is promoting Carrie’s Invitation Only (debuting December 1st on CMT) by putting her performance of Temporary Home into heavy rotation. People can check out that performance here: http://blog.cmt.com/2009-11-17/carrie-underwood-offers-a-special-temporary-home/

  • curlyQ23

    What a beautiful performance! Cute interview too.

    I just saw on Twitter that “Temporary Home” will be Carrie’s next single. Yay!

    According to All Access, it has an impact date of December 14th.

    Great performance, and so glad she got some couch time.
    I noticed near the end of the clip, while she was talking to Conan she was fiddling with a ring on her left hand. Has something happened quietly that we don’t know about?????
