Tracy Chapmans 1988 hit Fast Car continues to collect achievements over three decades after its release.
Im sorry I couldnt join you all tonight, Evans said at Nashvilles Bridgeport Arena.
Its truly an honor for my song to be newly recognized after 35 years of its debut.
Thank you to the CMAs and a special thanks to Luke and all of the fans of Fast Car.
The success of Combss cover isnt only relegated to the CMAs.
Earlier this year, Chapman became the first Black woman to earn a No.
1 single on the Country Airplay chart since the ranking was established in 1990.
She also topped the Country Songwriters chart for Combss interpretation of the song.
Fast Car earned its due long before the latest cover made waves this year.
