“Fast Car” was performed at the music awards ceremony as a duet by Chapman and Luke Combs. Combs himself covered the song for his last album GETTIN’ OLD.
Grammy performances ensure chart positions
The 1988 track is followed by Joni Mitchell’s “Both Sides Now”, which lands at number two in the LyricFind US chart. Like Chapman, who rarely appears in public, Mitchell was a surprise act at the awards show. The performance at the 66th Grammys was her first to date – she withdrew in recent years due to health problems. Mitchell was supported in her performance by Brandi Carlile, among others.
Other Grammy songs that landed in the top ten include Paramore’s “This Is Why” at No. 8 in the US and Dua Lipa’s “Houdini” at No. 9 worldwide.
