A Young Carrie Underwood Will Impress You In This Throwback Video!

(Rare Country) It’s no doubt that the world took notice of Carrie Underwood during season 4 of “American Idol.” Not only did she win the crown during the show’s finale, but she also went on to become a global superstar who we know and love today!

However, back in 1998 — more than five years before she set foot on the “Idol” stage — the Oklahoma-born songstress was ironically singing a different tune — one called “Maybe He’ll Notice Her Now.”

In this incredibly rare video, a teenage Carrie can be seen on a stage in Fort Smith, Arkansas, along with backup band 71 South. Although she’s young, it’s clear that she was poised for success even in her pre-“Idol” days.

“We’re going to slow it down a little bit,” says Carrie in this video, as one musician begins to play synthesizer in the background.

Then, the curly-haired cutie, sporting a vintage vest, launches into the tune with her sweet and southern twang. Toward the end of the song a cowboy-hatted harmonizer echoes her on the lyrics “maybe he’ll notice her now” and “maybe he’ll open his eyes.”
