“Forever Country” was awarded the prize of the ACM Video of the Year Award.
All artists who participated in the vocal event as well as producer Shane McAnally and director Joseph Kahn, ascended to the stage to claim their prize.
“I have no idea why they asked me to say something on behalf of these incredible artists but as a member of the CMA board we’re so happy to celebrate country music,” Karen Fairchild said on behalf of the group. “I mean what a rich heritage we have. To Joseph Kahn you are our dream director from the very beginning. To Shane McAnally for killing that track and all those vocals. To the ACMs for continuing to honor country music. To all the fans, we love you so much.”
