Adam sings country music! And blows it away! Did you hear the audience response to his high riffing? He knocked them off their seats. OMG! He knocked me OUT OF MY SEAT, too! My visit to Heaven was over too soon. You showed 'em, Adam! And the two voices together melted my heart!!!!
Maybe he can add this to the set list tomorrow night
Thought the same thing. What if he added this song to the set list tomorrow...? I can't even... but I would dye my hair blonde if I had time

Leona's silly, she could have gone for a full contact body hug at the end, and she went for the side hug, a la the Duggars. YES! Damn, what a wasted opportunity...

Maybe I'm misreading the comments here, but I don't think Adam and Leona were necessarily asked at the last minute to perform because Little Big Town wouldn't be able to do it. Award winners Luke Bryan, Chris Stapleton, and Sam Hunt sang their own songs (maybe they're in the middle of promo cycles?), but Blake Shelton was paid tribute by having Darius Rucker sing his song and some other guy sang a song to honor Florida Georgia Line. It might have been in the plan all along to include pop artists on the broadcast (to draw in an additional audience) and present a different take on the song. Choosing Adam was perfect, especially given the history of the song. Maybe Adam was asked to perform back when he posted on Instagram that photo of himself playing guitar as a child. (just kidding) : )
By the way, it looks like some sites, like HollywoodLife.com, were offering a live stream of the show. They sure didn't advertise that well.
I can't stop listening to the duet!

Ooooh, thanks for this. I've been waiting for a high quality video! Oh, he's having fun with that. He's in his element up there. I may just have to listen 1 or... 27 times + more....

IslandGirl islandgirljams 6m6 minutes ago My DH rarely says much when I force feed him Adam, but he said straight away Adams part was nuanced/heartfelt. Authentic ????
Yes "nuanced and heartfelt" - it was utterly beautiful

EM.ES @emes79 36s37 seconds ago Human Emotions Underscore CMT Artists of the Year Celebration on.cmt.com/1PxVpAU via @cmt
(Adam/Leona mention)
British vocalist Leona Lewis and former American Idol finalist Adam Lambert offered an inspired and soulful take on Little Big Town’s hit, “Girl Crush.”
Interesting how they describe Adam as former American Idol finalist, but not Leona as former X Factor winner...?

One of the articles describing Adam's and Leona's performance referred to Little Big Town by their initials, LBT. As soon as I saw that, I immediately thought, "Adam just turned that into 'LGBT'." (Little Glambert Big Town). Kinda appropriate under the circumstances.
I do hope CMT and/or Warner makes the song available on iTunes.
