“nicotine” with zero mercy, please 😮💨
needle_kid November 8, 2026
“Choosin’ Texas” feels made for that stage — let Ella have the whole room singing it back.
melody_kid November 8, 2026
“girl you’re taking home” would be my pick.
drumscore98 November 8, 2026
I’d pick “Weren’t for the Wind.” It has the kind of build that could make an awards-show performance feel huge without needing a bunch of extra production.
lowkeydiner November 8, 2026
“Nicotine” would wreck that room.
fadedkid November 8, 2026
“That’s Why We Fight” over “Choosin’ Texas” for me—the obvious hit pick is a little too safe.
coastalmoon November 8, 2026
Honestly, “You Look Like You Love Me” — the CMA stage is exactly where the full theatrical version should happen.
retroghost November 8, 2026
“Choosin’ Texas,” but keep it simple. no need to build a tiny rodeo on the CMA stage when the song already does the job.
quietsounds November 8, 2026
“girl you’re taking home” PLEASE
lunarsnare November 8, 2026
i know “choosin’ texas” is the obvious answer, but “nicotine” would be the better CMA pick imo. way less safe and it’d hit HARD.
latehead November 8, 2026
nicotine, no contest tbh
record01 November 8, 2026
I need “That’s Why We Fight”
quietsounds November 9, 2026
“that’s why we fight” is my pick too. choosin’ texas is the safe awards-show answer, but this one would actually make me shut up and pay attention.
drumscore98 November 9, 2026
“Weren’t for the Wind” is still my pick; give it a big arrangement and let the song carry the whole thing.
loudmelody November 9, 2026
I’m still picking “Choosin’ Texas” — obvious doesn’t mean wrong when the song is that massive. Let her have the full big-CMA moment.
ravenlights November 9, 2026
Nicotine would absolutely destroy.
echoamp November 9, 2026
I’d go with “Weren’t for the Wind”; it has room for a big arrangement without feeling like the expected answer.
rooftopfox03 November 9, 2026
i’m taking “girl you’re taking home.” “choosin’ texas” has had its big moment already; give the weirdly specific fan favorite a real awards-stage swing.
cosmicraven November 9, 2026
nicotine, but keep it painfully stripped back tbh — that one would hit like a truck.
cosmicwolf November 9, 2026
“clear the clouds” would be the left-field pick and i’d be obsessed with it 🥹
CoyoteCore November 9, 2026
“girl you’re taking home” with a full band would be such a good curveball tbh
RestlessChorus November 9, 2026
“that’s why we fight” pleaseeee, that one deserves the huge awards-stage moment 🔥
dinerwolf November 9, 2026
clear the clouds, easily
noise November 9, 2026
“nicotine” and i’m begging them not to turn it into a medley. let that one breathe for the whole performance tbh.
RavenKid66 November 10, 2026
“clear the clouds,” but keep the production restrained. not every awards performance needs to arrive with a choir and a fog machine.
lunarrooftop November 10, 2026
You Look Like You Love Me.
cosmicraven November 10, 2026
choosin’ texas, sorry — that chorus was built for an awards-show singalong lol
hookcrowd86 November 10, 2026
“that’s why we fight” would be my pick. give it the big dramatic arrangement, no medley nonsense.
moonghost73 November 10, 2026
“Nicotine.” No medley crimes.
rooftopfox03 November 10, 2026
“weren’t for the wind,” no question
GardenGhost November 10, 2026
Nicotine. No medley parole.
coldbridge85 November 10, 2026
Choosin’ Texas, no medley.
rooftopcore November 10, 2026
“Weren’t for the Wind” for me. That chorus would sound massive in that room, and it’s still my pick over a medley every time.
cassettehead November 10, 2026
“You Look Like You Love Me,” but keep it loose and let the band carry the whole thing.
RiffMoon November 10, 2026
“That’s Why We Fight” with the full dramatic treatment would absolutely wreck me 😭
rooftopcore November 11, 2026
Clear the Clouds needs that spotlight.
lowkeydiner November 11, 2026
I’m still picking “That’s Why We Fight” — that’s the one I’d replay immediately after the show, tbh.
AnalogHeadliner November 11, 2026
“Clear the Clouds,” ngl.
