Looking back, "Friends In Low Places" is the iconic song, but I think "When I Call Your Name" is the standout vocal performance.

I think Vince is one of the greatest vocalist in country history, and the song here was just beautiful. I just don't think Garth can sing, but that's me. His voice makes me cringe.

I had to give this one to Garth. He may not have Vince's beautiful voice, but "Friends In Low Places" fits him perfectly and is just so fun.

Vince's voice never had a better vehicle than "When I Call Your Name," though I wouldn't have been mad if this had won as a duet because Patty Loveless' harmony vocals is incredible.

They absolutely got this one right. "When I Call Your Name" is one of the best things Vince Gill has ever done and is just gorgeous. Garth Brooks is trash, while the other three are decent (particularly the Randy Travis tune)... but yeah, none of them hold a candle to WICYN.

In bold, I didn't want to actually write it, but.....ditto. |
