Personally, I like LeAnn's version better than Trisha's.

Going with Patty Loveless on this one, followed by Trisha, Pam Tilis, Deana, and Leann.

Are you telling me Martina was not nominated for a grammy for her performance on "A Broken Wing"??! GTFO!
Trisha definitely earns my vote, but I definitely think Martina should have won this...

Man, all 5 of these are damn good. Any of these could've won the category, honestly. I think that Trisha's is probably the most deserving though, so I say they got it right this time.

Trisha definitely earns my vote, but I definitely think Martina should have won this... it seems the grammy voters have never been high on Martina for some reason. I've never understood that honestly but I agree "A Broken Wing" should have been nominated and won here. I voted for Pam Tillis because I love All The Good Ones Are Gone and also think it is one of Pam Tillis' best vocal performances |

I do think it is absolute bullshit that she has been nominated like 17 or 18 times and never won, but that's a different story. I am mostly just surprised that out of her 17 or 18 nominations, a vocal performance for "A Broken Wing" was not one of them. I am used to her being nominated and not winning, but the fact that she wasn't even nominated is shocking considering that it is probably her most iconic vocal performance and she has been fairly nominated throughout her career for the most part. |

Personally I'd go with Patty here but can't argue against any of the nominees.

This is a good group overall. I'll go with Pam here, but her, Patty, and Trisha are all deserving.

I didn't even know Trisha had a version of "How Do I Live", let alone a popular/Grammy-winning version until a few years ago. It always and forever will be LeAnn's song imo so I voted for her.

Trisha was absolutely the right choice, imo. Phenomenal vocal performance.
I still remember though how LeAnn performed the song, and then immediately after, Trisha won the Grammy for it. That was the big story in the media the next day.

Trisha Yearwood by far. Pam Tillis would be second.
