Taylor Swift does it again with her performance of “Should’ve Said No” at the 2008 ACM Awards.

What a show last night at the 2008 ACM Awards in Las Vegas and whether it’s the awards and/or the performances that get your attention, it was a good night all the way around in country music and that goes double with having Reba hosting the event for the 10th time.

I am always surprised with the number of stars that come out for the award shows, let along how many them perform on stage and last night was no different, I loved that the show started off with Carrie Underwood performing her latest hit “Last Name”, have you seen the video of this…damn and she picked up Top Female Vocalist award, nice touch. One of the highlights of the night had to be Garth Brooks in first singing a couple of his greatest hits including one with his wife Trisha Yearwood, that was cool to see and they topped it off with him winning the Crystal Milestone Award, what a legend, it couldn’t have gone to a better guy. Specking of legends, it was an interesting to have Kenny Chesney and George Strait perform separately and then do a duet of “Shift Work”. Kenny Chesney won his 4th in a row Entertainer of the Year that this year was voted on by the fans.

But you know, just like last month at the 2008 CMT Music Awards, I was most impressed with the newest talent in country music and one of my favorite artists (next to her best friend Carrie Underwood) Taylor Swift, who was shocked when she won Top New Female Vocalist, personally after the CMT awards, I wasn’t, see deserves it, but then she followed that up with shocking and yet soaking performance of “Should’ve Said No”, look at the picture on the right (Photo Credit: gossipgirls.com), tell me that that isn’t cool to see, even Brooks and Dunn was stunned with that performance as they were about to announce the nominations for an award, I just wish I had the video of it because no picture does it justice. Like I said, what a good night for country music all the way around and I can't wait for the next award show, so until then, enjoy the rest of the night.
