My favorite parts were Tracy's smile throughout the music, and Luke's obvious admiration for the song and the original performer. You can almost hear him thinking "How did i get so lucky?"

You can see the admiration so clearly!

Great reactions to both this and the original! You may have done further research after your reaction but in case not, Luke Combs released a cover of "Fast Car" on his latest album. It was nominated for a Grammy for best country solo performance. Instead of having him perform it solo, they brought Tracy in for the duet and we're all blessed because of it! 😊

Thank you so much, I was so impressed!

The audience was not aware she would be there. You can tell when they realized she was onstage by the cheering. Such an emotional experience.

Best musical moment of recent years.

I'm so glad you reacted to this. I love Luke's version a lot and it won song of the year for Tracy. It totally deserved it. I was so excited to hear this performance was going to happen. It's the only reason I watched the Grammys.

This is real music. She wrote a song that wears well over time. And they sound great together.

I remember the first time I saw her sing was the Nelson Mandela concert in the late 80's. Instant hit...it was phenomenal.

This performance is mindblowing!!! So happy to see her get recognition for a brilliant return!!! Love her!!!!! Missed her!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤Saw this live on tv and got chills!! Repeated here again!When this country version crossed over, I couldn't get enough . He grew up loving this song and needs much respect for this magical intro for a generation who now can see her contribution!!!!!!! LOVE!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Thanks for doing this one. Just seeing her radiant smile, Luke being in awe of Tracy and the crowd's reception when they begin had main tears.

Couldn't agree more!

she looks happier than ever not everyone had heard of her and at the end her partner ends up like her dad and she leaves alone.

Luke said he loved this song the first time he heard it in the car when he was 8 (I think) and it’s so wonderful to see Tracy again after all these years.

There was something so different about the grammys this year which was kind of encapsulated by this performance. It kind of took a low key club vibe which worked really well.

I love how the video went blank and we had to watch this guy on the verge of tears.

There were some who weren’t pleased that Luke had covered this. Making the connection for her to do it with him at the Grammy’s put those comments to rest. It was a perfect collaboration ! Not sure Tracy ever got the deserved recognition when it first came out.

OH SHE DID. ADMIRED BY OTHER MUSICIANS AND HER MANY MANY FANS ALIKE. I HAVE NEVER SEEN ANY PERFORMER THAT CONNECT''S TO THEIR AUDIENCE QUITE LIKE TRACY' WATCH HER EYES. IT IS ALL IN HER EYES. REDISCOVERED HER AGAIN AFTER HER 2024 GRAMMY PERFORMANCE W LUKE COMBS. I THOUGHT THIS DUET WORKED PERFECTLY ON EVERY LEVEL. I VERY MUCH LIKED COMBS VOCALS. NEVER SAW HIM BEFORE THIS. THAT WAS SPECIAL.

Luke asked Tracy’s permission to cover this song because he loved it growing up as a kid. She said yes, and it was a huge hit on the country charts. Tracy made over $500,000 in royalties from his version

Tracy never ages, her voice never ages and this song will never get old. Great duet with Luke, I always love to hear another performers perspective on a classic song.

60 years plus 34 years respectively. Wow, will this song ever age❤❤❤❤❤❤

Combs kept her lyrics intact on his recording of it so she received all the revenue from it.

THAT IS SO EXCELLENT...YOU SEE, SOMETIMES WE DO WHAT WE KNOW TO BE RIGHT THING. LUKE COMBS PASSING UP THE GLORY FOR HIMSELF AND REALLY HONORING TRACY. HE REALLY ADMIRES HER. THEY BOTH LOOKED SO HAPPY PERFORMING TOGETHER. WHEN I NEED A SMILE ON MY FACE I JUST RETURN TO THIS VIDEO.

Speechless. Started my day with your 1st reaction to Tracy, was surprised to see this come up, stopped to listen and now I’m agog. You hit it, the timbre of her voice is rich with depth. If polished mahogany wood could sing, she is what it would sound like.

Iconic song from an icon to many of us who grew up with this song. Her smile during the intro❤. The crowd was so into it. I’m not a country fan and loved this performance.

Just an awesome collaboration!

I’ve watched this video about a 100 times and it still brings me to tears every time. (Actually it’s kind of embarrassing). Such a beautiful gift to see her perform and to watch Luke’s admiration for her.

The reaction was from her peers well deserved

Their voices sound so good together

Awwww brother, thank you for your reaction. I am there with you.

I love that Luke Combs covered this song and didn't change it ❤ I think that he just wanted to introduce a new generation of people to a masterpiece ❤

You reaction to this performance was so timely as you mentioned. I remember when her song came out- and, it was a pleasant surprise to see her perform it at this year’s Grammy awards. Cheers to you- I always look forward to seeing what you are reacting to, and to your thoughts and feelings regarding them.

You need to do some Luke Combs! When It Rains It Pours (funny), Lovin On You (my fav), Beer Never Broke My Heart, Love you Anyway, She Got The Best Of Me and Beautiful Crazy. Definitely need to do the videos. He is great.

Btw, Nick, I don’t know if it’s my iPad or your video, but the last few songs of yours the video just blanks out! If anyone else is having this problem, please comment

Copyright filter. The record companies are getting quite brutal.

Luke pushes the country trope voice a bit over the top and he seemed to have issues controlling his tone, but maybe he was just nervous being on stage with the legend. Regardless, it was a lovely and very sweet duet.

👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
