The song remained the same for Carrie Underwood while Chris Daughtry came up empty during last night’s broadcast of the 50th Annual Grammy Awards on CBS.
Underwood’s “Before He Cheats” won Best Female Country Vocal Performance and Best Country Song (awarded to songwriters Josh Kear & Chris Tompkins) honors.
Last year, the American Idol fourth-season champ took home two Grammy awards for Best New Artist and Best Female Country Vocal Performance for “Jesus Take the Wheel.”
While “Before He Cheats” lost Song of the Year honors to Amy Winehouse’s “Rehab,” the song continues to receive recognition from both the music industry and fans.
Daughtry’s band was hoping to capture its first Grammy award after receiving four nominations, however it apparently wasn’t meant to be for the former Idol 5 finalist.
The group’s self-titled debut lost Best Rock Album to “Echoes, Silence, Patience & Grace” by the Foo Fighters, while the single “It’s Over You” lost Best Rock Song to Bruce Springsteen’s “Radio Nowhere.” “Home” — a ballad that served as background music for Idol sixth-season eliminations — lost to The White Stripes “Icky Thump” in the Best Pop Performance By A Duo Or Group With Vocals category.
In addition, the album’s producer Howard Benson lost Producer of the Year honors to Winehouse’s producer Mark Ronson.
