Kristin Chenoweth Covers Carrie Underwood’s ‘Lessons Learned’

As the Tony-winning Broadway actress and upcoming American Country Awards co-host Kristin Chenoweth gets ready to release her album 'Some Lessons Learned' next week, she's teasing us with a new song, a new video ... and a familiar tune. Watch the new country sensation perform 'Lessons Learned' -- originally included on Carrie Underwood's debut album 'Some Hearts.'

Though we love Carrie's take, we've found ourselves transfixed by the sincerity that Kristin is channeling in her 'Wicked' good performance of the song. After all, it fits the message of her album quite well. "This whole record is filled with songs that are me," Kristin tells the Boot. "This is a woman who has experienced success, failures, heartbreak, rejection, things that people don't think happened. I want to paint the overall picture of who I am. It's me getting to exorcize things."

The song was penned by legendary songwriter Diane Warren, who also wrote four other tracks on Kristin's 'Some Lessons Learned.' The new album hits stores September 13.
