XII comes out March 6th. Blake Shelton and Miranda Lambert produced his 12th studio album. Blake said he considers Neal to be more than a friend, he's a "hero." Blake said he wanted Neal to "cut songs that he was truly excited about." Miranda said, "it was a blast to see Neal and Blake together. They had the place laughing all the time. I think the fans will hear three different artists coming together on this album with their individual takes on the music."

Real Good Feel Good

Mouth

Crazy Women
Lucky Enough

RASCAL FLATTS CHANGED

April 3rd is the day we get new music from Rascal Flatts. They are issuing two versions of Changed. One is just 11 tracks, but the Deluxe Edition will give us four more songs, plus a "'Zine Pack." The "'Zine Pack" includes a small magazine (get it?:) with pix, interviews and lyrics, and a set of Flatts guitar picks (OK, now that's cool!). The Deluxe Edition is available at Wal-Mart.

Taylor Swift is up for Favorite Female Singer, and Favorite Song for "Sparks Fly."

Toby Keith is up for Favorite Male Singer (he's going against Justin Bieber, Bruno Mars, and Usher).

Lady Antebellum are up for Favorite Music Group.

HUNGER GAMES SOUNDTRACK

I can't wait for this movie to come out on March 23rd. I devoured the books - and you should too - so I'm excited to see what they do with it.

The soundtrack comes out March 20th, and features many country artists. (I think I can tell just by the title of some of these songs what scenes from the book they will be featured over.)
