00:21:44
a snippet.

00:22:13
The Rainbow Connection now I'm going to
be very honest while I was watching this

00:22:17
performance Willie did
not look well he looked

00:22:21
a little nervous and he was obviously
struggling to breathe now I was on Twitter

00:22:27
and everyone was like oh my goodness is
Willie All right we all became concerned

00:22:30
for his health he made it through the song
and by the end of it he seemed better

00:22:35
but wow who keep him in your prayers
please despite his difficulties though the

00:22:41
duet was truly beautiful I posted the
full performance on Facebook at a v.o.a.

00:22:46
One of the hits that's v.o.a.

00:22:48
The number one t h e h i

00:22:51
t s The Hits now even though they had one
of the most historic songs in country

00:22:57
music this year these next 2 artists never
took the stage on the live telecast

00:23:02
their win for musical event of the
year was announced actually on

00:23:06
a totally different show sounds like

00:23:09
a little Say don't you I'm talking
about little acts and Billy Ray Cyrus.

.

00:25:41
That's the winner of the best a
musical event of the year x.

00:25:46
And Billy Ray Cyrus with Old Town Road
they weren't the only ones that some might

00:25:50
say were snubbed Eric Church was up for

00:25:53
a couple of awards including Album of the
year and entertainer of the year when. He

00:26:00
did however take the stage for

00:26:01
a solid performance of some of this
country hits. With making strong.

00:26:10
Trucks don't.

00:26:17

00:27:13
The way. Were. Sold to.

00:27:21
Be the 1st to reach.

00:28:16
Take. Too long.

00:29:06
Some of it one artist we all know Eric
Church is proud of is Ashley McBride He

00:29:12
endorsed her artistry before people really
knew who she was and at the c m A's she

00:29:17
won for New Artist of the year beating out
Cody Johnson Midland Carly Pierce and

00:29:23
Morgan wall and her acceptance speech
was like a good country song too it had

00:29:27
a story humor and a message I
once had the pleasure of playing

00:29:32
a tribute show for Mr John Prine and the
next day he shook my hand. And you said

00:29:38
you're real good. You know Reba. That
you're really good she went on to say I

00:29:44
cherish those little moments that I like
that that are truth and guidance from

00:29:48
voices that we respect and admire and I'm
thankful for that and for this and for

00:29:54
the opportunity to step up thank you
note as she said the opportunity to step

00:30:01
up that comment actually referenced

00:30:03
a speech the Grammy president Neil port
now gave back in 2017 where he inferred

00:30:09
that the lack of support for women artists
engineers and producers in the music

00:30:14
industry is because women need to step up
now he receives much backlash for blaming

00:30:19
women for their lack of access to
opportunity without even acknowledging how

00:30:23
systemic gender discrimination impacts
women's. McBride's brand new single from

00:30:30
her 40. 1. 1000000 country
hits below a with

00:30:35
