Love her sooo much..and she did not turn out to be one of the "jackasses" ,but a wonderfully talented, caring, beautiful woman with a voice that can melt butter..have loved her for 20+ years now and she just gets better and better..Thanks for this!!
I have opened for it seems a hundred bands over the last 30 plus years of playing and today I found this song. I will definitely play it the next time I open for someone. Thanks Mary. I will give you credit.
Being a songwriter I enjoyed this soooo much, but I havn't yet experienced being an opening act for anyone but my self. Unless you can count the person you followed in a Karoke line up or Open mic line up? Mary I'd love to cover your song at an open mic. With the mention of your credits and about where I hered it played. copyright law. As long as i don't paid to sing your song , it's ok right? And of course cite where I heard it and who wrote it.
Well she never became a jackass. Last night 20 years on in Bristol she was the complete opposite. Mary thanked her opening act Tift Merritt so many times during her own performance and even had Tift up for the encore and amazingly when the band had left the stage, had Tift on piano singing one of her own songs with Mary accompanying on guitar and duetting the chorus for the finale. Such grace.
i think the reason why everyone gave her a standing ovation is because they could TOTALLLY relate to that song!! im sure almost everyone at one time was someone else opening act!!! they all paid their dues..
It cant be K.T shes talking about because they never toured together, and i dont think K.T would treat her opening act like that because shes been there..and secondly they've always respected each others music... if you noticed K.T was the last to sit down anyway. yes i am a k.t. fan.. so dont slam K.T.
As far as her clothes, yes it was weird, maybe that was the point she was trying to make.. everyone had fancy clothes on. and maybe she couldnt afford one.. she was pretty new at that time..
First of all, K.t.oslin and Mary Chapin have never been on tour together.. so it cant be her.. and they've always gotten along pretty well.. so dont slam K.T. i think K.T could relate to that song pretty well..
These songs are right in our faces and we don't see them...I always think 'Why didn't I think of that'....This lovely girl is supremely talented and very very intelligent....as soon as she starts singing I'm certain that artistes and musicians everywhere will start nodding their heads and saying..'That's right..That's right..Thats right'..thanks for posting this....from England.
Thank you so much for posting this! I was a DJ when this happened and there was a lot of flack from establishment Nashville towards MCC when she sang this. This is one of the first time I ever saw someone get a spontaneous standing O from the CMA audience. She is one of the finest voices in music today with great albums and live shows. She has said she would never put this song on a album so this is great to see it.
Gosh, that dress! That dress! Hideous! But: She sure is one of the best singer-songwriters there is and ever been. Touching, moving, though provoking and funny, too. She's given the world so many beautiful moments with her music, thanks, Mary-Chapin.
She talked about this on the radio. My recollection, through the 20 years of fog, was that, like all singer/songwriters, there is no way to write a song exactly as it happend. She said that it was a compilation of stuff that she had been through and what others had told her had happened to them. Her first words after the song were, "I just realized that I've opened for a lot of you out there."
@Broncosfn That's the person I thought of when i watched the awards 1990, and audio taped it on cassett, I still love to listen to this song. Dwight because he wears a hat, is going bald and wears very tight jeans and looks good in em, and has been known to where Rhinstones. Love the Dwight songs, He sure proved he can be meaqn as hatie from the movie Sling Blade, But i love ya Dwight, " "Time" CD, is still one of my FAvs
I have received three replies to this comment, but I was happy after I received the first. I would like to ask that I receive no more replies to this comment, or at least no more answers to my original question.
Funny but true: In the first country concert I ever went to, in the Concord Pavilion in California, Reba was the star... and one of her opening acts was Garth Brooks. =D
My favorite singer/songwriter. Saw this song on another venue way back when and couldn't find a copy of it anywhere. So glad to have found this. LOVE her style and gift! Another great one is "this shirt"
I think it was Dwight because she said I don't wear little jackets with shiny rhinestones/stones, and Dwight always wore those little jackets/vests. Plus, Nashville always kind of shunned him because he lived way out in California and refused to live near Nashville.
I was watching this awards show "live" the very night it happened, plus was taping it on my "VCR," so I have it on VHS. Anyway, if you all will notice the people on the front row, they act so shocked when she says, "I'm the opening act." Well, I believe her act was a complete surprise to everyone.
I'm so happy to find this. It was this song that made me a MCC fan. I have all of her cd's, but I've found the last few a little tedious. There are some terrific songs on these albums, but they don't stand out and grab your attention because the albums are so one note. I miss the days when she managed to work a little fun into the mix. I keep wondering what happened to her sense of humor. I hope it's only disappeared from her work and not from her life.
Without a doubt the most memorable performance in any awards show I have ever seen. I wondered at the time how many showbiz dudes and divas changed their attitudes after hearing this song. As others have mentioned, the lyrics sure point to Dwight Yoakam. Most fans never saw the top of his head until he appeared years later in "Sling Blade," and no other country artist wore their jeans as tight as Dwight. If so, the smartest singer/songwriter of the last 20 years paid him back with interest.
Thank you soooo much for posting this! Chapin always was (and still is) one of the classiest ladies in music. She is still releasing great music that never gets played, but it is worth searching out.
love it She is amazing. Did you see K T Oslin a the end not wanting to stand up? She was probably that jack ass. I am pretty sure that she slammed Reba once and told her to hold on for the ride lol
Actually, I'm about 90% sure it was Dwight Yoakam. The tight jeans and jacket, he always wears a hat, and just the year before this performance, he'd done a cover of "Long White Cadillac". Plus, IIRC, she opened for him for a while.
almostfm, I think you are correct about Dwight Yoakam being the inspiration for the song. Tight jeans. hat covering up his balding head, and the short fancy stone jacket.
That would make sense. I saw D.Y. in nyc back then. He kept the audience waiting for over an hour after the opening act finished. He came out wasted and was cursing out the audience when someone up front said it was about time he came out. I still like his music but never paid to see him live again after that.
@sostenuto99 she did stand up.. she mightve had some bad shoes on or she was tired.. but she did stand up and she was the last to sit down.. K.T would never treat her opening act like that because she was a opening act herself..
She has never ever slammed Reba.. that quote is out of context. she has no animosity or jealousy toward Reba. They even mentioned that on a Nashville Now show.. Reba knew exactly what she meant and never took it a offensively...
Never saw this before. Thanks for posting! I love it! I only recall a few of Carpenter's hits from a while back - "Passionate Kisses" and "He Thinks He'll Keep Her."
Its such a pleasure to see someone have the guts to stick it to the Divas and Prima Donnas that are everywhere in the music business today...I had to watch it about 4 times...awesome!
do you possibly have any Shenandoah footage from this award show? I noticed they were sitting behind K.T. Oslin during that video.I would love to see some footage is available
I remember her coming out to the stage that year and few people knew who she was, but after this performance, few people would ever forget her. Great then, great now, and always unforgettable.

Could ALSO be about Garth Brooks or Alan Jackson (balding, hat, tight jeans - ?)
George Strait just doesn't strike me as the "jackass" type. Still, all four of 'em are so vain, they probably think this song is about them . . .
