* UPDATE: I've found good quality videos of some performances I had mentioned... here you go!
WOW... Carrie Underwood and guest Steven Tyler had the best performance of the night, hands down. I mean, she comes on and she is rocking out to her own 'Undo It' song and soon enough, here comes the awesome lead singer of Aerosmith, Steven Tyler dressed all in white to help Underwood finish her song. But the performance doesn't end there, they then sing, 'Walk This Way'. Let me tell you I grew up to Aerosmith's music all the time, having a dad who was a total rock and roll lover, still is and Steven Tyler was very known at an early age and let me just say he still has it. He has rock'n'roll lead singer quality to this day.. what a voice! Damn, that was good!
But the guest stars did not end there... Rihanna joined half of the super country duo, Sugarlands' own Jennifer Nettles. These two totally showcased how wonderful and great their voices are - its always nice to see girls coming together, no matter what their normal fan base is. Brad Paisley was also joined by the group, Alabama, which if your a fan of Brad Paisley, you would have loved. I like Brad Paisley, think he is a cool, funny and very loyal guy. I do enjoy some of his songs, but never had a connection with his music. But I totally believe he is a great musician and a true country icon. Him on that guitar is so enjoyable - his love for the guitar is magic. I wanted to post one more video but unfortunately, can't find a good enough quality... Zac Brown Band was joined by legendary James Taylor and it was such a good performance. It was really really nice!
Now onto other performances of the night... okay, so Keith Urban. That guy rarely does any wrong... and he did nothing wrong last night. Unfortunately, he didn't win any awards but his performance of 'Without You' was simple but at its best. Started off with just him on the guitar singing and the current (personal) video playing in the background. Just love how he puts himself out there everytime - showing how much he cares and loves the music. Amazing. Again, no good videos posted of his performance yet... i'll keep an eye and track to post asap. Another enjoyable performance was The Band Perry, who won best new artist, sang their hit, 'If I Die Young'; very happy they won - love the song and they did a nice job. And lastly, really enjoyed Sugarland's performance, such a cool, fun duo. They sang, 'Tonight', and again, Jennifer's voice is amazing. Almost forgot Taylor Swift.... she performed her song, 'Mean' and she is not always good live... but she did a nice job on this one. She also won entertainer of the year...was hoping for Keith Urban or Miranda Lambert for that one, but oh well, can't win them all, I guess. So for now, I'll leave you with these two performances, I'll try to post my other favorites once I find a good quality video. I'll also do my top best dressed - that will be posted soon too.
UPDATE: So I've found good quality videos of some performances I had mentioned... here you go!
