It's the only song by a woman to hit #1 this year, and lyrically it fits the theme of the night. She has a new single that would benefit from the exposure more than Girl. Besides with her pregnancy she might be unable to perform at the Grammys assuming that is an option. I understand the reason to do "The Bones," but someone asked why "Girl" and I gave a very reasonable explanation for it as well.

"The Bones" is already blowing up into a big multi-format hit. I don't think its need for a performance as 'exposure' was any necessary than her performing "Girl" because it was one of the few smash hits by a female in 2019 and fit the night's theme perfectly. I feel like people are gonna be talking about that performance more than if she'd done "The Bones" imo.

What's going on with Thomas Rhett's hair lol He also kept clapping and getting in my way when I was trying to take a picture of Michael Ray standing by Crystal Gayle on my TV screen so I am not impressed with him on any level tonight lmao

Lol, even just checking my stan card at the door, it would be so uncomfortable for them to have built a 3-hour show (top to bottom) around & about women, with articles & news centering the Entertainer focus on how few women have won + how it's been almost a decade since the last time a woman won (who is now a pop star), and have all of these female-driven medleys & performances carrying the entire broadcast...just to give the highest honor to another dude. Like, I really can, but also can't see that happening. Women haven't been doing well tonight to this point, so...

Yeah, Thomas Rhett's hair looks a downright disaster and doesn't fit with what he's wearing at all.

Ugh, whose idea was it for Dolly to have sing with the cast of Phantom of the Opera? That was a mess.

This song between for King & Country and Dolly doesn't work. They just don't sound good together. Meanwhile Zach Williams is taking everyone to church

Why have someone sing with Dolly when she manages to shine brighter by herself... this 3rd song she performed tonight is the biggest proof of that

Thomas’ performance was good though, he sounded good, I don’t usually enjoy his award performances.
Dolly’s 3 performances were uneven. That first one was honestly just a wall of sound. The one with Zach was nice and then this one alone is great. Just getting to hear her voice is a gift, the others weren’t needed!

Solo Dolly is killing it now! She is still the greatest at age 73!

I love Dolly but....one Jesus song ok, the Jesus medley was a bit much. And well, lots of people have "faith" but not in Jesus. I'm not really a huge fan of proselytizing during an awards show.

I'm glad Dolly Parton got to sing that third song on her own because the first two collaborations were entirely unnecessary and didn't work at all. She slayed that final song on her own though.

My first guess is Lady Antebellum, or perhaps even Rascall Flatts? He had previously posted the same day with positive things to say about Lady A and Runaway June. So I think they are in the clear. I was thinking maybe Midland? It couldn't be The Highwomen, could it? I really have nothing to base my guesses off of. Wayy late on this, but I think definitely Rascal Flatts

I really like Thomas Rhett’s performance. Sounds so nice. Did he miss up the lyrics? I feel like I heard the line about drinking red wine twice.

Simplistic but solid performance from Keith Urban. "We Were" fits his voice live a glove and that melody is just so soothing. Love this.
