IDOL Tournament: Round 4 - Carrie Underwood VS Pia Toscano

Call me crazy, but I always thought - Pia Toscano to Pop is what Carrie Underwood is to Country. I mean, both were criticized during their American Idol stints to be robots, but they proved to be more than that after the show. I mean, look at them now! Of course, we have to wait and see if Pia Toscano will be as big as Carrie Underwood.

Poll is open for 48 hours only. If anyone's interested in the matchups DAM NATION planned for the coming weeks, click here to check out the entire 64-player bracket (then click again for a zoomed in view).

Carrie Underwood 

Before He Cheats

This is her most successful single as of August 2011 with sales of 3.3 million digital downloads, making it the second most sold single of an American Idol contestant, the fourth longest-charting single in the history of the Billboad Hot 100, and the fourth best-selling country song of all time. This song also ranked at #6 on the 2007 Hot 100 Year-End Chart. Total crossover success.

Pia Toscano

This Time

Of course, this is a relatively new song, but the song got an arguably good reception. In its debut week, the single sold 19,000 copies. The day after her performance on So You Think You Can Dance, the song shot up to #36 on iTunes and sales went up by 21,000. As of August 16, 2011, digital sales is at 65,000. This is pretty impressive for a song that hasn't got any radio airplay. The fact that her song hasn’t fallen off of the iTunes chart as of this date is amazing.
