- Graeme O'Neil takes a look at Amy Grant's tribute at the 2022 Kennedy Center Honors, including Sheryl Crow, Brandi Carlile, The Highwaywomen, Vince Gill, Bebe and CeCe Winans, and President Joe Biden.
Amy saved my life as a little boy. Just last week, I was able to fly to Nashville and hang out with her backstage. She is everything you'd think she'd be. We hugged each other multiple times. She was so present. Felt like family. She started writing music because it helped her to try and understand life. She isn truly an awesome human. I told all. ❤️
As a young man and a missionary in Brazil, I had little opportunity to hear Christian music in English since we all spoke Portuguese. But I had brought a little Christian music with me, and Amy's album Age To Age was one of the tapes. I wore that thing out, and there were times when I wanted to go and be alone with the Lord, I could almost hear the Lord say, "Bring Amy along...okay?" and I would! Her music helped me get through the lonely times on the mission field, and I can honestly say she and I became friends through that one album even though we have never met.... thanks Amy...
Amy defined my teen years in music worship and when I was pregnant with my son “Baby Baby” was released and I sang it to him in my womb. I found out she wrote it for her babes and it made it more meaningful. The song still makes me emotional. Thank you Amy.
I literally grew up with Amy, from "Old Man's Rubble" to "El Shaddai". I was surprised when "Find A Way" crossed over. I understand "Behind the Eyes" being one of your all-time favorites, but "Lead Me On" is mine. And the first time I heard "Baby Baby" on the radio, I actually called the radio station to confirm that that was an Amy Grant song. I so immediately loved it!! I will say my favorite song is off the "Behind the Eyes" album: "The Feeling I Had" - like most of Amy's songs but even moreso - captures exactly the hope, the loss, the optimism and the sadness of life and moving on.
I am so happy that she received this honor. She richly deserved it, and I will be forever grateful for the decades of music she gave me and the world. She is truly an amazing person. To paraphrase Patti, when you talk about Amy, you talk about love. 🙂
Me, too!!! "Lead Me On" is epic!!! I also regained love for "Unguarded", which was the first time I got to see her in my college years!!! I, too, grew up on your aforementioned songs. Amy's amazing!!!
BeBe and Pastor CeCe Winans brought the house down with their performance.
yeah, i would have loved to have included a clip but i couldnt find one anywhere
Yes indeed!!! I got to see CeCe on the Christmas tour in '99 with Amy and Michael W. Smith.
Absolutely! Like only they can!
@@GraemeONeil Yes, I believe that is on purpose that the Kennedy Center Honors has many other long clips, but not that one. Christianity i guess weirded them out too much.
@@easye5653 of course, if Christianity had "weirded them out too much", Amy wouldn't have been honoured by the organization with a 20 minute tribute on a national broadcasting network. It's more likely something to do with music rights.
The Kennedy Center Honors seems to have gotten it 100% RIGHT 🙌🙌 Very timely and the speech left my eyes trying not to leak
Nice job, thanks for putting this together. Amy Grant is so deserving of this honor. I doubt I've ever met a kinder, more welcoming, and beautiful inside and out person in my life.
I wore out several Amy Grant cassettes in my youth and absolutely adored Behind the Eyes... Ms. Grant along with Michael W. Smith, Sandi Patti, Larnelle Harris, Steve Green, Harvest, Twila Paris, Truth, Acapella, Take 6, Michael English, Michael Card, Wintley Phipps, Stephen Curtis Chapman... The soundtrack of my youth and young adulthood. kudos and much love, Ms. Grant!
I have been a fan of hers since I was a child. (Behind the Eyes is also in my top 5!!)Well deserved. It’s mind boggling that such a kind human being is being attacked by the right for accepting the award from a democratic president. It’s irrelevant. She’s a talent.
Because she's not a Republican, she's an independent. She loves people and that's the way it should be.
It be a thousand times worse if a singer accepted an award from Trump!
They would be canceled!!!!
To be fair, she was demonized by LGBT activists when she wouldn't make her stance on gay marriage clearer 10 yrs ago. She has been criticized by both sides throughout her career and the Amazing thing about her is that it doesn't faze her. She literally keeps her eyes on God not Man.
A graceful beautiful lady who seems to have a inner peace ❤
Amy has been a part of my life for 33 years now, not only do I love her music but I love her as a person. If you've ever heard Vince Gill's song When My Amy Prays, that's exactly how I feel that Amy has changed me as a person. I've seen her many times in concert and even met her once..
I’ve loved her and defended her since I was 9. Her croosover song mentioned Jesus and still the church has a problem? The reason I left the church in part is because of the hate that the church thrown her way. I’ve met her and she is so of the most genuine and kind I’ve ever met.
I agree, it was so difficult to watch the people I called friends turn my church into a house of hate.
Don't let "Church folk" keep you from the fellowship. Not everyone is like that...especially Jesus.
Same here!
100% on Behind the Eyes, Graeme.
Loved it and love her my bucket list is to finally meet her after being a fan since 1979
I met her after her concert in 2005- she’s so kind and so gracious. She looks at your eyes and listens. And she s so tall and stunning in person too.
My favorite
Amy Amazing Grace Grant
Nice job including the lyrics in your script!😊
Amy's lyrics have dramatically changed over time. It's a journey of a person that's left Wine world and going into Another in my feelings.
I love that BTE is one of Graeme's favorite albums!
I care about Amy Grant!
What did Katie Couric say was her personal favorite? I taped it but my tv messed up
I recall her saying that "Grown-Up Christmas List" makes her cry every time she hears it.
@@GraemeONeil Thank you.
Had she been honest about what the Bible says about homosexuality when asked years ago (the Bible being the basis of her Christian faith), this wouldn't have happened. Fact. She would have been canceled. Not awarded. I'm sure she's very aware of that fact.
Absolutely. She compromised the Bible and was awarded by a bunch of fellow compromisers for doing so. "For what does it benefit a person to gain the whole world, and forfeit his soul?" -Mark 8:36 And btw, for those that say Christians are haters for telling it like it is biblically speaking, you have exactly backwards because I can't think of a greater way to hate than to tell someone, who is offering the Lord, that they aren't. Heck, it's worse than not telling someone they're about to get hit with a truck.
The Bible says that homosexuality is an abomination. God is not pleased & so many people are willing to please people on earth than than God, Jesus. Hell is going to be full that's for sure.😔
Actually the most important thing that Bible says about homosexuality is;" You shall love your neighbor as yourself." ... so to be homophobic, reject gay people and trying to steal them the opportunity to be in love, happy and having a family is not in line with the spirit of God's love... some churches already figured it out, some will catch up in couple of years; Amy Grant is such a loving and good person that she already knows what is fair and decent
@@a27garbo Wow, what bible are you reading bc that couldn't be more ridiculous? Both OT and NT are crystal clear on the issue and not being honest w/ those setting themselves up for judgement by God is the exact opposite of love, it's flat out hateful. And certainly nothing that God says is sinful and lustful is love from His perspective.
@@firstthes2811 Well I guess you are not familiar with the 2 principle of love that Jesus spoke (On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.)... actually it's not crystal clear, there are many parts of the Bible which are metaphoric and if taken literally, we would still be stoning people and burning witches...you cannot have the interpretation of a random sentence from the Bible as "being gay is sinful" and "love your neighbor" at the same time, you picked which to follow, for me "love your neighbor" is the priority, God gave us our common sense and put love in our heart to know the difference.... , you also need to work on your "“Do not judge, so that you won't be judged."
Beckett Cook (Beckett Cook Show) does a great analysis of Amy Grant. Check it out on TH-cam .
Beckett Cook admits he is unfamiliar with Amy's work. Instead of criticizing her, it would have been better for him to invite her to get to know her. I don't undestand Christians who have youtube channel simply to criticize and demonize believers.
@@igloozoo3771 Becket is familiar with what the Bible (the word of God) says though. No one argues that Amy grant isn’t a nice person or talented musician . That’s not the point. God is our ultimate Judge. Just wondering if you are familiar with Beckets past?
Amy Grant is not a Christian artist. Stated so several times in the past, she just change to take the award?
She is indeed.
@@kathykb8123 She is indeed what? Christian? Not by her own mouth she is not.
@@dhollongstreet4725 Lol. Yes, she is. And I suppose you claim to be Christian and yet you're so judgmental. Only God will be Amy's judge. Don't stick your nose in.
@@kathykb8123 I do not claim anything. If she is so Christian then why so many years saying she was not. Oh and let us not forget her actions. You hear a song and think it is something it is not. What is the passage about being led astray.
@@dhollongstreet4725 Lol. You think what you want. Good luck with that.
It is not popular to be faith-based,we live in a secular society that is caught up in a death culture that supports abortion, capital punishment, end life pull the plug. The Catholic Church started the folk music at Masses, I was a part of that movement at St. John’s in San Lorenzo, Ca. Oakland Diocese, Great time, and great movement!🙏💕😎❤️🇺🇸🎹🎼🎸!
Yah hates sin! Satan is so deceptive.
Amy sounds old in this interview!
Amy and the wrong "Kingdom".
Shame on all of you
God Loves You.
The height of Amy's popularity was in her Christian days. When she made the move to secular music, she did not have the same success as the A listers. No other Contemporary Christian artist would ever even be considered for this award. So, let's not make any mistake here.The only reason she is being honored is because of her attitude toward the gays.
CeCe Winans would be although she is considered more "Gospel" than "CCM". With BeBe or alone.
Ummm…apparently you missed albums the classic album Heart In Motion, then Home For Christmas, and the 2 albums that followed, House Of Love and Behind The Eyes. That was the height of Amy’s popularity.
@@GraemeONeil Ummm, you missed the fact that Amy Grant never achieved the same success as any secular pop stars of her day.
I totally agree!!!!
You are mistaken.
Michelangelo Buonarotti you know, the one that decorated the Vatican vault said, artists are God's favorite ones and he was so right, some artists are so gifted to make us feel like...closer to God, walking on top of clouds in heaven and l trully hope, they could never lose passion for having fun performing and entertain us because ...they are our moral support, they help us carry on, singing a good old song is helping us forget any shhh...it situation and get along with our lives... otherwise murderers succeed to... take our lives away and they do not deserve such a satisfaction. Now we have the scientific evidences friends, when we are focused singing, it's regenerating for our human body, music is our best life partner saving our lives every single moment. Think about it fans ⭐💐🎁🍰😍💐🎄🌈🎅🥰🥳🎊🌈🎄🎅🎁🤩🥂🌟🎂💎🌺🎉😘👍🍷🎉🎂💎
