2022 CMAFest

^^ Southbound is weak and frivolous

Billboard loving Carrie's set last night

My favorite part of the Billboard write-up: "...showcasing just why she’s one of the premier vocalists in any musical genre — and yet again, why a CMA entertainer of the year win is long overdue."

I’d have rather heard Southbound over Undo It… but I don’t think there is rhyme or reason. She actually only played Cry Pretty during her Amazon Prime concert too from the album of the same name.
Yeah but Southbound it's perfect for the summer and festivals, I find it so weird. She could retire Smoke Break too, just saying.. 😌

There can be many reasons for that:

1. She already has too many fun songs (LN, BHC, GG, CC) and if she had to pick any one between them and SB, I believe it's those. SB was not bigger or more memorable than them at all.
2. Despite being her only #1 from the CP era, DA was way more impactful, adds more versatility and was an absolute highlight in comparison, therefore DA has been included along with the lead single in setlists.
3. I just think it straight up does not make sense to perform a song called Southbound in Vegas. If this was a Nashville or Texas residency, I could have argued for it.

I taped the show last night and watched it when I got home this morning. Same boring performances, same songs by the men (low energy). How the H### did LC get ETOTY? Someone should tell these guys that they are singing the same old songs they have been singing since the lettuce/tomato days--and while they are at it---please tell them to take a shower and dress better. Bentley looked like he had been on a drunk for weeks and forgot to shower and wash his hair and clothes. AGAIN---Carrie carried the show on her back and brought the best performance of the night. Did not like the hosts at all. Surely they can do better at choosing hosts---maybe not-- as I can not think of anyone who could outdo Brad and Carrie. Another show---another bummer.
