"All-American Girl" is a song composed by country pop singer Carrie Underwood, Ashley Gorley and Kelley Lovelace. It is the second single from Underwood's second studio album, ''Carnival Ride'', released in the United States on December 17, 2007. (See 2007 in country music). ==Background== "All-American Girl" is the second single for which Underwood shares a writing credit, the first being "So Small", which preceded it. The song is a mid-tempo country-pop song, with a soaring chorus. Underwood stated in an issue of ''Entertainment Weekly'' that the high note during the bridge in the song is the highest note she has ever hit (E5, or the E an octave above middle E). The song centers around a "beautiful, wonderful, perfect all-American girl." The first verse tells the story of a father hoping for a baby boy to continue his legacy, but "when the nurse came in with a little pink blanket, all those big dreams changed". The baby girl now has her father "wrapped around her finger", and his heart belongs to that "all-American girl." The second verse then shifts to 16 years later when the girl is now a teenager who falls head-over-heels for the "senior football star." Just like the girl's father, she becomes the center of the boy's world. The final bridge tells of when the girl and boy get married and are expecting "one of their own". When she asks the boy what he's hoping for he replies with "one just like you": an "all-American girl." Underwood said the song is in part her autobiography.〔http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=euiZAIx7s-w Carrie Underwood - All American Girl (Live on Letterman) She wrote the song loosely based on the fact that she is the youngest of three daughters (with no brothers), and ended up marrying a sports star (albeit in hockey), and she did work as a vet and a waitress before, entered pageants and was a Sigma Sigma Sigma sorority member. 〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「All-American Girl (song)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
