Kristin Chenoweth doing a COUNTRY CD?

Posted: 12/7/04 at 8:16pm

Disclaimer: I searched the threads, couldn't find one on this topic.

So, Kristin's West Wing cast bio says "Chenoweth’s next album will be released next year from Sony. The CD will be a country music album with a slant towards inspirational songs."

Now, I don't mind country music. In fact, I love Martina McBride and love her voice. Faith Hill too. But Cheno singing country? I never thought I'd see/hear that! Am I the only one that things it is a bit odd? Thoughts anyone?

It's just the next step in her evil plot to take over the world, one entertainment genre at a time...

i guess she has the range to do anything, i guess i'm just surprised she chose country! i'd buy the cd, that's for sure.

That's one CD I will not be buying.

Wow. Country and inspirational... 2 of the worst genres I could possibly fathom in music. Tough time to be a Kristin fan... bleh.

As much as I love Let Yourself Go, country/inspirational is not my favorite genre. At all. If I listen to country at all, it's Patsy Cline, and "Walkin' After Midnight" isn't inspirational so much as depressing.

okay, it's going to be a mix of inspirtational and country yes but shes also got some things similar to the style on Let Yourself Go

and Id buy it country or no country, shes wonderful either way

She sang a couple songs from the new album at her Carnegie Hall concert in September and it sounds like it'll be great to me. And, as someone pointed out, she's from the Midwest, so it doesn't seem that surprising that there's a country influence to her new music.

I actually thought that she would be a good country singer when I heard her sing Popular. The song has a country feel to it. Thats my two cents.

I think a lot of country singers could fare well in musicals because they tend to have better talent than "those pop people." And I don't know if the cd will at all be good or not, but my point is that i'd be a sucker for the cd regardless, just b/c is KC. It will be interesting whatever the outcome, that's for sure. I don't know if there are a lot of Broadway turned Country folk out there! Are there? Now there's a new thread....jk.

Reba and Gary Morris did do the country turned Bway. Hats off to them for that!

Because when I think of country music, I think of Dolly, Reba, Patsy and Cheno.

I'll buy the CD just because it's Kristin. :) If she did a rap CD, it'd be a different story.

She's a Rebpublican Christian from Oklahoma....why does this surprise anyone?

(Not to disparage those things--well at least not the latter two--but she does fit right into the Country music demographic.)

She did sing some "inspirational" countryish songs at Carnegie Hall, and they were just not my cup of tea. She has a good country voice, and believe me I LOVE country. But I like my Kristin Chenoweth to sing showtunes. She can rejoice in God all she likes, and Viva la Country but I won't be putting her next CD into my ears.

Indeed she is amazing. Can't wait for her movies either! Why did it take so long. And why does Audra refuse to do movies? This is something that needs to be addressed.

Audra did sing in one movie...a wedding movie...which was it again?

Anyway, back on topic, yep, I guess Kristin is taking over the world. Please KC, just don't go into bubble gum pop! (I think it mentions in her West Wing bio that she can also do that too haha)
