Carrie Underwood News: 'Little Toy Guns' Singer Explains Song; Gushes About New Music Video

Recent Carrie Underwood news showed the "Little Toy Guns" singer explaining her new song and gushing about its music video.

According to Carrie Underwood's interview with CMT News, the country star wants her fans to truly understand the serious meaning behind her new single.

"If you didn't pay attention to the lyrics at all, you would just think, 'Wow, this is like a cool rockin' song,' but the lyrics are actually quite serious," she said.

"The storyline is basically about a little girl who hears her parents arguing, and she - in her words - wishes that they were fake like plastic, like little toy guns and they didn't actually hurt and didn't hurt each other and didn't hurt her."

The former "American Idol" winner also explained the music video of "Little Toy Guns."

"I don't want to follow the story exactly. And I didn't want it to be too serious. I just really want it to be relatable," Carrie Underwood explained to the news publication.

The Grammy-winning recording artist also shared how happy she is with the team who worked on the music video for "Little Toy Soldiers."

"I got to work with P.R. Brown on 'Two Black Cadillacs,' so I just thought he would be a really great fit," Carrie Underwood said.

"So we contacted him and go, 'Do you have any more ideas?' He came up with the whole concept of this incredible storybook theme where the little girl becomes the hero."

The new mom also gushed about Grace Rundhaug, the lead child actress in the music video for "Little Toy Soldiers." Carrie Underwood and the eight-year-old previously worked together in the 2013 remake of "The Sound Of Music" on NBC.

"Whenever I was trying to think of the types of things I wanted to see in this video I just saw her face," Carrie Underwood said. "She'd be the perfect little girl in the song, in the video."
