The best collaboration ever!! No matter how many times I watch reactions to it, it still gives me goosebumps!! They killed it, every single person on that stage gave everything they had and left it on the floor!!
Let’s all say a huge thank you to Chris’ wife Morgane for encouraging Chris to perform on his own. In an interview Chris said he never went solo due to performance anxiety until his wife offered to be on stage with him. Notice when he sings he’s almost always looking at her!
My favorite thing about these reaction videos is the due the supporting band and backup vocalists are given. She not only can back up her husband and is an amazing artist in her own right…but has the agility to back up Timberlake and all the impromptu musicianship that we know was occurring. What she does vocally to support these two vastly vocally different men is hands down more impressive than either of these gentlemen individually and she shows why a Grammy award for supporting vocalists should be a thing.
Chris has his amazing voice.. but you can't take anything away from Justin... Memphis boy.. he gets country.. love this collaboration... F...ing amazing..
If you you like this, you have to watch the Justin and Chris Stapleton preform “Say Something” it’s a music video that’s like a live crazy performance and supposedly nailed it on the first take! Pretty amazing if they truly pulled it off. Unbelievable if you haven’t seen them perform before
Absolutely the best follow up to this video. Some backstory if no one else has mentioned it. Justin and Chris are next door neighbors and good friends. Chris was around the music scene forever as a songwriter, but this performance was his breakout as a solo artist. He has severe stagefright, that’s why he was only a songwriter for so long (he wrote Your Man by Josh Turner and Comeback Song by Darius Rucker, as examples). But his wife Morgane (the backup singer in this video) was/is extremely supportive of him and her presence on stage helps Chris a lot. If you watch some more of his live performances, you’ll notice that he looks at her a lot while they’re performing because it helps him control his stagefright. Morgane and Justin convinced him to do this performance, I think having them both on stage have him enough confidence to really break out of his comfort zone. And thank god they did!
@@joshrobertson929and I believe he said he’d do it if they let Justin sing with him. Well lol they knew what that meant that’s why they were given 2 time slots for their performance. The best collaboration ever in my opinion!!
Love this collaboration. I think Chris Stapleton will be an artist that will be around for a long time and will become one of the all-time great country voices.
THANK YOU!! For giving JT his props in Tennessee Whiskey.. Everyone man he just can't hit that run like Chris Stapleton.. Man he killed it in his own way..
Morgane is Chris’ wife and she has a beautiful voice. Their harmony is insane. And you’re so right, JT is another insane talent! Chris was formally the lead singer for The Steeldrivers. Check out their Blue Side of the Mountain and Chris’ solo of Whiskey and You.
You called them both vocal legends but this is what really shot Chris into legend status I believe. After that he was really all over the place. He’s amazing. Shout out to Morgan for pushing him to take his shot at becoming an artist.
I remember watching that performance on tv and felt stunned afterwards. I sort of felt bad for all the performers after that. After the show was over, I went and looked up Chris Stapleton on UA-cam. I have not heard a bad song from him yet. Yes, "Drink You Away" is Justin's song. They also do a good collaboration on "Say Something".
CMT asked Chris to do the opening number for their 2015 Award show. Chris is friends with Justin and asked if he would do it with him. When they told CMT that Justin will perform Tennessee Whiskey with Chris, CMT doubled the time allotted for another song which way Drink You Away from Justin's album. Also, this was the opening performance for the award show and I have no idea who followed this performance but how in the world they could top this.
It’s so true… We all pretend like we disliked N’Sync and Backstreet Boys, when we were young. Yet we all know all the lyrics. JT could be a full time cast member on SNL.
Chris & Justin are neighbors in Nashville & collaborate a lot. Both Chris & Justin are better live!! The 2nd song is a Justin song. That's Morgane, Chris' wife. She's the one who convinced Chris to sing because he used to write songs for other, but was too shy to perform himself. She's the one who gave us the gift of Chris!!! ❤
Gulp is right! LOL. They have a total of five kids. Of course they can afford to have some help to watch all those kiddos, but I can't wait to see if any of them come out with that kind of talent (both his and Morgane's!)
After watching it a few times.....favorite part of the reaction is your head tilt at the same time as Keith Urban in the crowd at the 10:11/10:12 mark. You had the literal exact same reaction at the same time. So amazing!! And Chris right after coming in with the YEAHHHHHH (with Justin's head going straight back hearing it). Ugh such a good performance and reaction video!!
Wasn’t that just the most amazing rendition!! Justin killed it! I’m not a huge country fan but Chris Stapleton is rockin !! Love the phaser guitars !! His lyrics are the best I think! Then Eric Church!!
I have some very dear friends that were at this CMA show. They were blown away after this…. And everybody else was too. None of the performers wanted to go on after these two tore it up. Can’t say I blame anybody having to go on stage after that.
Chris Stapleton’s wife Morgan can hold her own with anyone on that stage. Without Morgan you would never have seen Chris on stage, in fact Chris has terrible stage fright, she has to be there. Chris either closes his eyes, or he is looking at her. I’m so glad Morgan encouraged Chris, I couldn’t image life without his sound.
Thank you for putting a giant smile on my face with that reaction. I needed that today. I agree 💯 with everything you've said about this performance! But in regards to Justin haters, I love Justin and hated NSYNC! I never hold how someone starts their career against them. He is a phenomenal artist with an undeniable God given talent!! He can do it all. I am a movie freak and go to the movies once or twice a week so I see everything. That man is a great actor.
The woman next to Chris is his wife Morgane, from what I've read Chris actually suffers from major stage fright and his wife being on stage calms him down and helps him perform. This performance has YET to be topped at the CMAs, with HARDY's and Lainey Wilson's from last year being the closest to topping it.
Thank you for reacting to one of my favorite collaborations. Wasn’t a Justin Timberlake fan until Drink You Away. You know I don’t care for country music, but if I did, Chris Stapleton would be my choice. Your channel is still continuing to grow. Congratulations!
This is so great!! I love your reaction - I hit like before I even watch the whole video :) I watched this when it aired and was blown away, I can't imagine being there in person.
Isn't this a fun performance?! Everyone is having such a blast. I'll bet that place was ELECTRIC! The guy with the dirty blonde hair at 10:15 that leaned his head over is country legend Keith Urban. And did you see Jewel? As others have suggested, you might like Chris and JT singing "Say Something." But you need to do the video, which is a single take. The song itself isn't my favorite studio song, but I do love that it's all done live in one take in the video. That's pretty cool to see and there had to be some major rehearsals that went into that!
Chris Stapleton going to be in Nashville, Tennessee in July 2023 at Nissan Stadium 🎉 Yes I’m going to gets tickets. Been waiting on this concert for a long time!! I only live an hour’s drive to Nashville,TN 💖💕🎶
If you want to hear Morgane and Chris sound their best in harmony? Do yourself a favor. Listen to them sing You Are My Sunshine. It gives me chills listening to them together on that.
New sub here!!! This was the night Stapleton blew up. I believe his album had just been released and soon after this the website selling it crashed from traffic. By this time, Chris had long been a very respected song writer in Country but never made it big solo. This was his coming out party. Look at all the other big time artists in the crowd jamming out. You can see it on their faces. Happiness for their friend and coworker who had been grinding for years underground. Several big No. 1 songs were written by Chris but performed by other people. Adele even covered one of his songs on her 21 UK deluxe album. Check out “If it hadn’t been for Love” by Chris and his band the Steeldrivers.
That voice of an angel is Morgane Stapleton, Chris's wife.please react to "u r my sunshine"by Chris and Morgane.She sings lead and it is beautiful, with a twist.u will luv it!!
Morgan Stapleton is a talent all on her own and could easily get her own record deal but she chooses to support her husband and sing his back-up vocals. Honestly, without her, Chris Staeton's songs wouldn't have the same feel to them. Her smooth, angelic voice seems to compliment Chris' rough, raspy voice in such a way that it baffles my mind how two opposites can blend together to form such beautiful sounds. Check out Chris' cover of Amanda to showcase everything I just spoke of.
All these artists in the crowd are going to call their agent and say "I don't ever want to perform on an award show after Chris Stapleton or Justin Timberlake".🤣😅🤣
FUN FACT: Chris Stapleton was born and raised in Kentucky and I Richard was born and raised in Kentucky too! My birth city is Louisville which is pronounced Lou a ville not Louis ville !!!!
It was rumored that after this performance, stapleton sold out the rest of his shows. He was new to the music scene as an artist but was a writer for big people
There are three live song videos that are absolutely the best versions of the songs being performed in my opinion, obviously these two songs are one of the videos, then there's a live version of the song you'll think of me by Keith Urban from a long time ago that's him playing it acoustic that is absolutely mind blowing, and then the live version of the song Call to Arms by Sturgill Simpson from one of the late night talk shows if may have even been SNL I can't quite remember exactly which one it was on but holy shit can batman that version is by far leaps and bounds better than even the studio version much less any other live performance of it.
Hands down the best CMA performance I've ever seen.
One of the best live performances ever brought down the house. AMAZING!!!
The best collaboration ever!! No matter how many times I watch reactions to it, it still gives me goosebumps!! They killed it, every single person on that stage gave everything they had and left it on the floor!!
Morgane is the woman, she can sing ! But she can back up her husband (Chris) perfectly. The two together are awesome!
....and 5 kids, to boot ❤
This is Justine Timberlake’s band - they are great!
He and his wife have a video singing “you are my sunshine” it’s amazing.
I was going to say the same
hands down one of my favorite performances of all time. Saw it dozens of times now and it never gets old
Let’s all say a huge thank you to Chris’ wife Morgane for encouraging Chris to perform on his own. In an interview Chris said he never went solo due to performance anxiety until his wife offered to be on stage with him. Notice when he sings he’s almost always looking at her!

What she does vocally to support these two vastly vocally different men is hands down more impressive than either of these gentlemen individually and she shows why a Grammy award for supporting vocalists should be a thing.
Chris and TJ vocally complemented each other but as the performance goes on the vocals continuously goes up notch by notch.
I LOVE these two guys together!! If you haven't seen already you should check them out singing "Say Something". That is incredible!!!
This was the best duo performance I've seen on a country music awards show. Shit blew me away live.
Chris has his amazing voice.. but you can't take anything away from Justin... Memphis boy.. he gets country.. love this collaboration... F...ing amazing..
He not only lands that vocal run, He extends it when he’s live again he gives me gooses.
One of the best live performances of all time. Without a doubt.
This is easily one of my favorite live performances the raw talent on that stage is unprecedented
If you you like this, you have to watch the Justin and Chris Stapleton preform “Say Something” it’s a music video that’s like a live crazy performance and supposedly nailed it on the first take! Pretty amazing if they truly pulled it off. Unbelievable if you haven’t seen them perform before
Yes yes yes Fisch.

Watching that performance blows my hat off every freaking time!
One of the best live performances ever!
Hands down one of the best live performances. And the horns brought it to another level
The best collaboration on Tv ever💥💥💥
THANK YOU!! For giving JT his props in Tennessee Whiskey.. Everyone man he just can't hit that run like Chris Stapleton.. Man he killed it in his own way..
Morgane is Chris’ wife and she has a beautiful voice. Their harmony is insane. And you’re so right, JT is another insane talent! Chris was formally the lead singer for The Steeldrivers. Check out their Blue Side of the Mountain and Chris’ solo of Whiskey and You.
Chris is the whiskey, and JT is the ice.
Justin is very talented, has a beautiful, strong voice, but when he’s with Chris, his southern roots kick in full gear, he is a Nashville boy
Real special performance. They were in the zone as artists and made some magic in real time.... I could watch this over and over.
You called them both vocal legends but this is what really shot Chris into legend status I believe. After that he was really all over the place. He’s amazing. Shout out to Morgan for pushing him to take his shot at becoming an artist.
Isn’t it just the greatest!?!?!
That young lady is Chris's wife. Awesome collaboration
I was watching live…..best live performance EVER!

One of the best ever. I watch it on continuous loop and still love it. Thanks

One of my favorite performances of all time!!!
BestCMA ever Drink you away is Justin’s song
One of the single greatest live performances in history and I MEAN every word I just said!
You gotta admit….. this is pure magic!
Chris & Justin are neighbors in Nashville & collaborate a lot. Both Chris & Justin are better live!! The 2nd song is a Justin song. That's Morgane, Chris' wife. She's the one who convinced Chris to sing because he used to write songs for other, but was too shy to perform himself. She's the one who gave us the gift of Chris!!! ❤
I remember watching this that night and I was blown away by the performance too!!!
i luv me some Chris Stapleton, the rasp, the runs, the soul, the guitar skills - sold. the Lady is his Wife, they now have twins - gulp
Gulp is right! LOL. They have a total of five kids. Of course they can afford to have some help to watch all those kiddos, but I can't wait to see if any of them come out with that kind of talent (both his and Morgane's!)
I saw this live that night. This was one of the best ever!
Drink you away is a Justin Timberlake song and that woman singing with Chris is his wife and her name is Morgane Stapleton!!!
Awesome music. I love to hear Chris sing and Justin is a great performer ❤thank you.
When it’s truly from the heart it’s easier to let it out!! That’s just purity!!
I am SO GLAD you reacted to this!!! One of my favorite live performances. This band and the three of them just killed it!!!
After watching it a few times.....favorite part of the reaction is your head tilt at the same time as Keith Urban in the crowd at the 10:11/10:12 mark. You had the literal exact same reaction at the same time. So amazing!! And Chris right after coming in with the YEAHHHHHH (with Justin's head going straight back hearing it). Ugh such a good performance and reaction video!!
Also obsessed with Justin vibin' with the bass player right behind him this whole performance. Ok last comment promise. Sorry it's just SO GOOD!
Wasn’t that just the most amazing rendition!! Justin killed it! I’m not a huge country fan but Chris Stapleton is rockin !! Love the phaser guitars !! His lyrics are the best I think! Then Eric Church!!

“Sing it Chris!”
Best performance I've ever seen! Check out their performance of Justin's song Say Something done live and on the first take! Chris is the GOAT!
The woman next to Chris is his wife Morgane, from what I've read Chris actually suffers from major stage fright and his wife being on stage calms him down and helps him perform. This performance has YET to be topped at the CMAs, with HARDY's and Lainey Wilson's from last year being the closest to topping it.
When Chris and his wife Morgan harmonize, it gives me gooses up and down my body
"Say something" that they did together is great too
Thank you for reacting to one of my favorite collaborations. Wasn’t a Justin Timberlake fan until Drink You Away. You know I don’t care for country music, but if I did, Chris Stapleton would be my choice. Your channel is still continuing to grow. Congratulations!
We did this one on our 10 hour livestream I remember cause I requested it LOL we did so many songs that day LOVE this so much !!!!!!
This was my ALL time Fav performance from any CMA show ever! And the women on stage is Chris's wife ;)
Timberlake is so damn underrated as a musician. People dont wanna see past the N'sync days but this dude is one of the best hands down
Agreed. Nysnc actually had good music
Love this reaction…. Such a great collab!
Gotta say, you make these reactions man. Love the enthusiam and the overall ability to "get into" the music. Love the work man
The lady is Chris Stapleton wife Morgane. They compliment each other’s their perfectly.
This is so great!! I love your reaction - I hit like before I even watch the whole video :) I watched this when it aired and was blown away, I can't imagine being there in person.
love this song
...and to think that back then, Chris was relatively unknown. He brought home the hardware that night!
Isn't this a fun performance?! Everyone is having such a blast. I'll bet that place was ELECTRIC! The guy with the dirty blonde hair at 10:15 that leaned his head over is country legend Keith Urban. And did you see Jewel? As others have suggested, you might like Chris and JT singing "Say Something." But you need to do the video, which is a single take.

Did you notice the joy in the backing band? Absolute 🔥
“ Hays, Kansas” by 49 Winchester. Won’t regret it
Chris Stapleton going to be in Nashville, Tennessee in July 2023 at Nissan Stadium 🎉 Yes I’m going to gets tickets. Been waiting on this concert for a long time!! I only live an hour’s drive to Nashville,TN 💖💕🎶
If you want to hear Morgane and Chris sound their best in harmony? Do yourself a favor. Listen to them sing You Are My Sunshine. It gives me chills listening to them together on that.
Morgane is chis’ wife and she is amazing vocalist. She backs him up with harmonies in almost all his songs.

Omg Fisch. You’re just now seeing this?!? This is an amazing performance. Will be watching your reaction soon.
Glad you enjoyed it as much as I did. ❤
The guy in the crowd you kept having the same reaction as is Keith Urban Awesome guitarist and singer.
The woman is his wife, Morgane! To hear more of her voice, check out their song, You Are My Sunshine 😀😀
All these artists in the crowd are going to call their agent and say "I don't ever want to perform on an award show after Chris Stapleton or Justin Timberlake".🤣😅🤣
I’m new to your channel I love your reactions ✌🏽
I’m pretty sure that at some point, they were jamming so hard that they forgot the audience was there!
I believe you need to find the live footage of Lzzy Hale and Eric Church at the CMAs, doing "That's damn Rock an Roll"
They should’ve done Might As Well Get Stoned!!
FUN FACT: Chris Stapleton was born and raised in Kentucky and I Richard was born and raised in Kentucky too! My birth city is Louisville which is pronounced Lou a ville not Louis ville !!!!
Chills... That's all
Next you have to watch these two do "say something" (official music video). Make sure you look closely at the marker at the end.
Dude they did an actual song together called Say Something. Check it out.
You need to check out... Say something by Timberlake and Stapleton . Its another classic.
10:13 you & Keith were both helping!
Keith urban was like “dayummmmm”
It was rumored that after this performance, stapleton sold out the rest of his shows. He was new to the music scene as an artist but was a writer for big people
This is Justin’s song Drink You Away

“Say Something” by Chris and JT is a even better performance! Check it out
Drink You Away is Justin's song.
begging for a Charles Wesley Godwin reaction. either Seneca Creek or Sorry for the Wait
Now check out “COLD” by Chris!!!!
