That BA performance murdered all the other singers out there TBH. no offense.
They better send BA to TOP 40 radio now because non-country listeners are loving it. Serve it while it's hot!

^Agreed. I turned to my family during her performance and said "She may have another crossover hit on her hands with this song."

Carrie, BA performance, the best of the night, by a mile, in spite of all the lipsyching going on.
When a "live" performance sounds better then a lipsynched one, that's something.

Just watched her performance, she sounded great. Song is growing on me too, I could def see it crossing over to pop. Carrie, BA performance, the best of the night, by a mile, in spite of all the lipsyching going on. When a "live" performance sounds better then a lipsynched one, that's something. I watched 5 or 6 of the performances, and none of them were lip-synched. ???

L O L It just goes to show how GOOD and spot-on the vocals were. I'll take it as a compliment to Carrie Carrie, BA performance, the best of the night, by a mile, in spite of all the lipsyching going on. When a "live" performance sounds better then a lipsynched one, that's something. I watched 5 or 6 of the performances, and none of them were lip-synched. ??? I didn't watch all the performances, but Chris Brown was certainly lip-synching. And was even bad at it too.

Broken Record Alert!!! But count me in as another one who loved her performance! It helps that I love love love the song, but you can't deny the vocals, the set up, everything about the performance worked! She(and the other two idols)shut it down <3

If other artists lipsynched, please post it. It's getting really ridiculous. If you're a singer that just can't sing without dancing all over the place, choose one or the other. jmo

I see Blown Away at #2 on the iTunes album chart, but some people say it's #1 again. Anyway, "Blown Away" is #46 on the all-genre iTunes songs chart.

LOVED the BA performance and I cannot wait to see what she comes up with for the tour!
The Oprah interview was probably the best one I've ever seen of Carrie. Carrie and Mike skating around was so adorable and I loved how we really got to know her even more. It was a nice glimpse into her life that we've haven't really seen before.

Everyone else was 100% live or had a backing track.

You'd think members of a Britney forum would be better at spotting lipping.

It was basically utter country-pop award show performance PERFECTION, plain and simple. Her voice was in pristine shape and handled this song like few others could. I was very impressed by how much excitement she brought with her own charisma, not just the excitement of the elaborate staging. Really, really strong showing by Carrie this time around of her best song yet.
