Country Music Hauls Home A Slew Of GRAMMY Awards

“I just keep thinking back to when you’re in second grade and you sing at your talent show for the first time and people joke around and say: ‘Maybe we’ll see you at the Grammys someday,’ and that just feels like an impossible dream,” said Swift, who stood with her mouth agape for a few moments before summoning up an acceptance speech. “I just feel like I’m standing here accepting an impossible dream and I thank you so much for that.”
