I'm gonna need a Women of Country medley at the Superbowl. They are tremendous.
Like she said it's 2020 man, but I am happy she won no matter what. Her Opry female tribute was wonderful and I love all the rave reviews because she deserves it.
This on the other hand made me sad:
"We’ve been taking steps in the right direction — which is really nice to see — and tonight with me getting to honor some of the women that we’re all standing on their shoulders. I don’t think I could ever look at myself like (those women). I feel like a tourist still. I’m waiting for the day that people figure me out and leave me behind. I will never look at myself the way that anybody should look at those women. I’m always really glad to hear when people like what I do" Backstage with the Winners at the ACM Awards | CMT
I am so surprised that Carrie won EOTY! So happy for her, but surprised. I would have preferred she was co-EOTY with Eric Church instead of Thomas Rhett, but at least she won! I have more hope that the CMA will follow suit. Still tempered expectations for that, but looks a bit better.
Her performance was wonderful as well. So glad she sang "Crazy" and "A Broken Wing" (which was amazing). "You Ain't Woman Enough" was great, and "I Was Country When Country Wasn't Cool" wasn't a surprise. I was surprised by her choices for Dolly and Reba. I was totally not expecting "Why'd You Come In Here Looking Like That", but it was fun to hear. And, while I was hoping for "You Lie", I understand why she didn't do two very big vocals back to to back. "The Night The Lights Went Out in Georgia", was a choice I didn't expect, and loved to hear.
It's either fans get mad if she loses or tie people are never happy.
I remember Carrie saying that she's always wanted to perform Reba's song "You Lie," so I was hoping for that!
