Carrie Underwood’s Some Hearts Is Certified 5x Platinum! Billboard’s #1 Album of 2006 Continues to Break Records Nashville, TN – Reigning CMA Female Vocalist of the Year Carrie Underwood begins the New Year with another incredible accomplishment as her 19 Recordings/Arista Nashville debut album, Some Hearts, vaults to RIAA Quintuple-Platinum certification for sales of five million units. The record-setting milestone earns Carrie the fastest 5x Platinum certification of any female country debut in history. With this accomplishment, Some Hearts has now become the best-selling, single-disc country album by a solo female in the new millennium. Some Hearts is also the best-selling, single-disc country album by a solo artist (male or female) in the last six years - since Tim McGraw’s Greatest Hits released in November of 2000. And with January 10 SoundScan information, Some Hearts earns the further distinction of becoming the best-selling, single-disc country album by any artist (solo, male, female, group, duo, etc.) since the Dixie Chicks’ Home released in August of 2002. Released November 15, 2005, Some Hearts has now logged a total of 20 weeks at #1 on Billboard’s Top Country Albums chart, beginning and ending 2006 at #1 and holding the top country spot for 14 weeks last year – more than any other artist. In 2006, Underwood’s chart-topping singles also led all country artists as she tallied a whopping 11 weeks at #1 on the country airplay charts. Carrie’s sales and airplay success were celebrated across multiple charts in Billboard’s year-end recap, which recognized the Best New Artist GRAMMY nominee at #1 among Top New Country Artists, Top Country Artists – Female, and Top Billboard 200 Artists – Female. Some Hearts garnered the #1 spot amid year-end Top Country Albums and, impressively, #1 on the all-genre chart of Top Billboard 200 Albums. In addition to her recent GRAMMY nomination in the all-genre category of Best New Artist, the ACM Top New Female Vocalist winner earned a GRAMMY nomination as Best Country Female Vocalist, for her six-week #1 single, “Jesus, Take the Wheel” (which also garnered songwriter nominations as Song of the Year and Best Country Song). Fans can soon be listening for Carrie’s upcoming single, “Wasted,” hitting country radio in February.
You are amazing Carrie you deserve all the success that is coming to you!!!
