Veteran singer-songwriter performe😼d her 1988 iconic track “Fast Car” alongside country artist Luke Combs at the 66th Grammy Awards, hosted by Trevor Noah.
The two singers, though hailing from different generations and musical genres, took the stage together on🥃 February 4 for a duet rendition of the song that has genꦫerated massive success for both of them.
Decades after its inꦏitial release, “Fast Car” re-entered the charts when Combs’ cover of the track, infused with a country sensibility, became immensely popular in 2༒023.
Dre🍎ssed 💖all in black, Chapman kicked off the first performance at the Grammys to the sounds of voracious cheers from the star-studded audience which included Kacey Musgraves, and Kelly Clarkson.
Chapman and Combs bouncedꦦ back and forth sharing the spotlight and but sang together in beautiful harmony for the chorus. After they finished, the crowd leapt to t𒊎heir feet in a thunderous applause.
Oprah raise💜d her hands cheering and host Trevor Noah raced to the stage to again pay tribute tღo Chapman.
“The legendary Tracy Chapman, everybod✱y. Thank you so much for that! Thank you so much for that,” Noah said.
Before the per🦩formance, Comb🥃s spoke about Chapman’s legacy.
“Tracy Chapman is such an icon, and one of the greatest artists that I think any of us will be along to see,” the count𓄧ry singer said. “It’s a full circle moment for me. Just 🔥to be associated with her and any way is super humbling for me.”
Chapman hasn’t pꦆerformed publicly in several years, making this a landmark appearance for the singer-songwriter. “Fast Car,” how🔴ever, is no stranger to the prestigious awards ceremony.
