Showing off her inner bad girl, Carrie Underwood gets behind the wheel in her dramatic new music video for her chart-topping track "Two Black Cadillacs," a deliciously dark revenge tale of a scorned woman turning to murder, is the third single from the 29-year-old country crooner's latest fourth album, "Blown Away." The video depicts the cryptic storyline of a fallen marriage, with Underwood in the driver's seat, leaving you wondering about her intentions and her actions.
"Two Black Cadillacs," tells the viciously dark tale of murder, lust and revenge. It speaks of a married woman planning on killing her cheating husband with a mistress. Apparently, the mistress did not know the man was married. After the wife learns of the affair, she and the mistress plan to kill the man because of his actions. The woman and mistress had never actually met, but they first made contact when the wife discovered the mistress' number on the husband's cell phone two months prior to the murder. After the killing, both women travel separately in two black Cadillac automobiles (hence the song's title) heading to the funeral, where they meet for the first and only time.
Vocally, Underwood is brilliant as always, and lyrically, she co-penned a tight story that looks like she will be taking us into new territories. Compared to Underwood's other hits, this song doesn't stand out after one digests the macabre storyline, even with heavy thematic elements, the songs impressively maintain a pop/crossover shine and accessible sound, courtesy of Underwood's pristine voice and modern delivery. She told Glamour magazine that though her lyrics are darker than ever, it doesn't mean that she is a violent femme herself.
But not so fast, however. Underwood recently revealed to Nashville-based on-air radio personality Becca Walls that things might not be as they seem. "It's more drama. It's juicy. The day was gloomy and rainy and perfect. And the killer is not who you would expect," she hinted with a smirk. Shot in Nashville's Music Row by director P.R. Brown, the new dramatic thriller is based loosely on Stephen King's "Christine" novel, which is about a car with a mind of its own. Held at the funeral of a cheating husband, Underwood belts out her track while an eerie story line plays through. The ending is way creepy, and find out for yourself.
