A country music legend, Wynonna Judd, gave a phenomenal performance at the People’s Choice Country Music Awards, leaving everyone in the room on their feet, applauding and shouting for more.
Country music is a diverse and wide-ranging genre. It includes everything from old-school country music like that from Hank Williams, Johnny Cash and Merle Haggard to today's country music. Country musicians such as Sam Hunt, Luke Bryan and Thomas Rhett get a lot of attention today even though it is essentially pop music with a little twang.
Some musicians popular back in the 1990s and earlier are still going strong. Willie Nelson, Dolly Parton and Wynonna Judd are still singing and playing those country tunes. The Judds were and still are one of the biggest names in all of country music.
In a clip posted on YouTube, Wynonna takes the stage and puts on a heck of a show as she dazzles the studio audience and those watching at home while singing “I Saw the Light” and “No One Else on Earth.”
“No one else on earth
Could ever hurt me
Break my heart the way you do
No one else on Earth”
Unlike many musicians who dance, twist and flip about the stage during their performance, Wynonna only needs to stand in front of a microphone to show that she’s still got it. Her voice still sounds terrific after all these years of performing and turning out hit after hit. The audience wholeheartedly agrees. They are on their feet, singing and dancing throughout her 5-minute performance.
With such a strong and surprising performance like this, hopefully, Wynonna will have many more years of taking the stage and sharing her beautiful voice with audiences to come. Even those not country music or Wynonna Judd fans will conclude that she sounded great.
Psalm 95:1 “O come, let us make songs to the Lord; sending up glad voices to the Rock of our salvation.”
