Platinum is the fifth studio album from the Texas country artist and reigning ACM Female Vocalist of the Year. And the 16-track collection is easily among the year's most highly anticipated releases. The album's lead single "Automatic," for instance, proved to be a hit with fans as soon as it was released.

Written by Lambert along with Nicolle Galyon and Natalie Hemby, "Automatic" is built around a gentle melody and lyrics that pine for simpler times, before technology took over our lives.

"It's about slowing down, taking a breath and remembering what it's like to live life a little more simply," Lambert said in a statement. "The song brings back good memories and it reminds me to take a deep breath and to remember that getting there is half the fun."

If "Automatic" represents a slowing down, then other songs on Platinum show different sides of Lambert's life. Take, for instance, songs like the pumped-up "Little Red Wagon," the wistful "Smokin' and Drinkin'" (featuring Little Big Town), the gritty "Bathroom Sink," the twangy "Old Sh!t" and "Something Bad," her duet with Carrie Underwood.
