Leona Lewis' 'I Am': Album Review
Leona's new album seems to be about more than just showcasing her voice.

Carrie Underwood had plenty to talk about on The Tonight Show last night (September 10). To start, there was that time when her dogs locked her newborn son in her car, which had to have been terrifying. But she also proved herself to be a decent Storyteller with the late-night TV debut of her new single — “Smoke Break.” While backed by an eight-piece band, her powerful voice shined most of all, to where Carrie sounded convincing while explaining why sometimes she needs a long drag. (Turns out, the American Idol country star doesn’t smoke cigarettes in real life — go figure.)

Speaking of stories, though: Earlier this week Carrie revealed the tracklist for her fifth studio album Storyteller, out October 23. She posted mini-movies of Instagram teasers, of flip books with images hinting at song titles, before confirming their names via press release.
