ACL 8th Annual Hall of Fame Honors Sheryl Crow

-The "8th Annual Austin City Limits Hall of Fame Honors" -- a celebration of the artists who've made "Austin City Limits" the longest-running music program in television history.

This year, we honor and induct... ...and Texas' own...

In this first of two episodes, we celebrate the music of Sheryl Crow, with guests... ...and, from Lucius...

It's Part 1 of the "8th Annual Austin City Limits Hall of Fame Honors."

-The Austin City Limits Hall of Fame was created to honor the artists who contributed to the legacy for the longest-running music program in television history.

In this first of two episodes, we celebrate... -♪ If it makes you happy ♪ -She's just so cool and so confident... -Mm-hmm.

-...in a way that's not boastful.

You know, it's genuine.

-She looked like a boss.

Like, there was no arguing with who was in charge of that set, that show, and that music, and it was just undeniable.

Every time I'm with Sheryl, I feel like she's teaching me, in a way where she doesn't make me feel like less talented than her, even though I am.

But she is very generous with her knowledge, of music theory, poetry, and just our industry.

She's a worthy mentor for all of us.

-You can't believe how many hits, until you hear them back-to-back.

You just don't even -- -Yeah.

-You don't think of it randomly, but when you hear those songs back-to-back, it's just every single one... -Yeah.

-...was a golden song.

-I think Sheryl Crow's legacy in music is purity of soul and rock 'n' roll and she is such a worthy leader for women in our industry.

It's taught me a lot.

It's taught me a lot about how to treat other women.

It's taught me a lot about how I believe I deserve to be treated.

And it's given me a whole path to travel.

-Yeah.

I mean, she's just a badass woman in music.

-Here is Sheryl from her first "Austin City Limits" appearance in 1997.

[ Cheers and applause ] -Hey, y'all.

[ Cheers and applause ] [ Laughs ] My name is Brandi Carlile and I'm here to celebrate my dear friend Sheryl Crow's well-deserved induction into the wonderful Austin City Limits Hall of Fame.

[ Cheers and applause ] Yeah!

Now, Sheryl's not a bragger, but her achievements are staggering.

She is decorated.

Sheryl's got nine Grammy Awards and an unbelievable 32 nominations.

[ Cheering ] She's got AMAs, ACM Awards.

She's got an honorary doctorate.

The American Academy of Achievement's Golden Plate Award.

[ Laughter ] And then there are the Golden Globes and the Emmy nominations.

The list goes on and on.

And I guess she must have a pretty big mantel in her living room.

[ Laughter ] But, to see it, you'd have to get past the parrot, the bearded dragon... [ Laughter ] ...I think a snake or two... [ Laughter ] ...a bunch of dogs, some barn cats, horses, and chickens, first.

[ Cheering ] I [audio drop] you not.

[ Laughter ] This is true.

So... ...all of the accolades aside, this kind of thing is what impresses me the most about Sheryl -- she's not just your average rock star.

She's a farmer, a poet, an activist, a producer, a businesswoman, a mentor, a cancer survivor, and even a doctor now, apparently.

[ Laughter ] But, first and foremost, she is a spectacular mother to her beautiful sons, Wyatt and Levi.

[ Cheers and applause ] She's -- [ Whistling ] Yeah.

[ Laughs ] She's up at the crack of dawn, with bedhair and no makeup, driving them to school and baseball, drum and bass lessons, damn near like every other mom out there.

Near like every other mom.

[ Applause ] The truth is, after a few minutes in Sheryl's company, she's so charming and humble that you almost forget that she's Sheryl [audio drop] Crow.

[ Laughter and applause ] [ Cheering and whistling ] But we must never forget that she's Sheryl [audio drop] Crow.

[ Laughter and applause ] It can't happen.

One time, me or my wife, Cath -- I can't really remember -- one of us called Sheryl a legend and she just waved it off.

She didn't like that word applied to her.

Doesn't like the word legend.

She said something to the effect of still having work to do.

And let's be clear -- she could beat me or any one of us in a footrace right now without any fair warning.

[ Laughter ] But the intuitive thing about her not wanting to be broad brushed into the way that she's impacted our culture makes sense to me.

Sheryl Crow and Joni Mitchell are two artists who won't accept that word because it's a monolith, and an artist doesn't dwell in the past, no matter how important it was.

Sheryl isn't a stone.

She's a river.

-Yeah!

-She's -- [ Cheers and applause ] She's an artist who's never been afraid to question herself and why she's creating, who is she creating for?

Many of us, myself included, never stop to consider the one-dimensional concept of a linear career, one based on album cycles followed by campaigns, bids for awards, associated tours, and then back again -- peaks and subsequent valleys.

An artist, though, won't be snapped to a grid.

Sheryl does what she's compelled to do and has, in turn, woken many of her admirers, like myself, up to question the pattern, to question the design.

When I stand back and look at Sheryl's mind-blowing body of work, to say that she's blazed the trail for generations of women in music would be the understatement of the century.

I remember seeing Sheryl oozing effortless coolness onstage at Lilith Fair in 1997... [ Cheers and applause ] ...at the Gorge Amphitheatre in Washington State.

She had a pixie haircut, leather pants on, and she played bass like a total badass.

[ Crowd cheers ] And once I forgave her for not being a lesbian, I can... [ Laughter ] ...I can still remember, just closing my eyes, laying my head back as I listened to one of the greatest voices in rock 'n' roll history echo through that sacred canyon.

And I will never -- I'll never forget it.

And the songs -- hit songs -- with substance, one after the other, until I run us out of time.

"All I Wanna Do," "If It Makes You Happy," "Strong Enough," "Leaving Las Vegas," "Everyday is a Winding Road."

And at this point, she was only two, maybe three -- two albums into her career at this point.

And the deep cuts -- "I Shall Believe," "The Difficult Kind," my personal favorite, "Crash and Burn."

-Whoo!

-I -- Yes, that one.

Right?

That voice crack in "Crash and Burn" is how I got the idea to do that in "The Story."

And I wished I had written every single one of those songs.

And I'm not the only artist with a reverence for Sheryl's unmatched songwriting prowess.

Johnny Cash, Prince, Kris Kristofferson, and Bob Dylan were impressed, too, all of whom have covered her compositions or collaborated with her, or both.

Sheryl caused that healthy friction in me, that pang of stressful hopefulness that an artist will feel when someone has struck a motivating chord.

She made me want to be a better musician and songwriter.

I was, in my mind, a singer, but she made me want more for myself than a television vocal-show career.

She also allowed me to believe and to understand that I could really do it.

When it comes to empowerment, intentional or otherwise, Sheryl has always been on the right side of history.

She's never afraid to speak up or take a stand.

And her collaborative nature and support of other women in music has inspired me and all of her disciples on such a profound level.

She took me out on tour with her when I was nobody, but she took the time to platform me as an artist in a big way by publishing a thoughtful and super-generous letter about me on her website and socials.

You don't have to do that [audio drop].

She invited me out onstage with her to sing every single night, no matter how important her show was.

And she was so incredibly kind to me and has supported me consistently throughout my entire career.

She's the first phone call that I make when I need any advice, personal or otherwise, or mentorship, and she always answers.

I mean, I literally called her outside of an emergency room a few weeks ago, because I trusted her opinion more than a medical professional.

[ Laughter ] She means so much to me and my family and our entire artist community.

I am truly honored to be here to induct Sheryl Crow into her joyful and rightful place... [ Cheers and applause ] ...in the Austin City Limits Hall of Fame.

She's one of the greatest songwriters and performers of all time.

And I'm so proud to call her not just my hero, but my buddy.

Please welcome on the stage Sheryl [audio drop] Crow.

[ Cheers and applause ] [ Cheers and applause continue ] -I want to, um... My 12-year-old will be mortified if I cry.

He's like, "Mom, do you have to cry over everything?"

[ Laughter ] I-I-I just want to say to Terry and to "Austin City Limits," you have no idea how important this show has been to me.

I have...

In fact, I was talking with Jimmie Dale Gilmore earlier.

I opened up for him 30 years ago and he was saying, "Yes, I remember.

I remember you played and then you started wrapping your cords and packing up your things."

And I was like, "Yeah."

And I got in my van with the U-Haul, and -- and I -- I'm -- I'm just grateful to still be here and to be doing it and to be inspired by people like Brandi, who, yes, opened up for me, but she's my favorite artist, and I want to be as great as her.

[ Cheers and applause ] And all of my heroes have been on this show, from Willie to Ray Charles to Emmy to Townes to Guy Clark to Loretta.

And it's just -- it's an important show because it features people who have written their lives and their stories in their art.

They aren't up here just playing hits.

They're here, like, bringing us all with them as they tell the stories of their lives.

And it's made a huge difference for me.

So thank you so much for this incredible honor.

And I'm really touched.

And just thank you.

[ Cheers and applause ] --I feel like a lucky girl 'cause I get to sing the most fun Sheryl Crow song ever!

Will you sing along?

[ Cheers and applause ] She's just back there, behind that curtain, so she's gonna be hearing you.

[ Laughter ] Here we go.

-Please welcome for her first appearance on the "ACL" stage, Brittney Spencer.

[ Cheers and applause ] -It's not every day that you get to honor an icon or get the chance to tell a hero how much they've inspired you.

When I think about Sheryl Crow, I think about finding your artistic voice and how important, yet impossible, that felt to me years ago.

But watching folks like Sheryl made me feel like I had one and that I could work at it and find it in time, because that's what artists do.

We find our voice in our words, and we share with the world.

[ Cheers and applause ] I remember the first time I met Sheryl Crow.

It was a -- It wasn't glamorous at all.

I was working at an airport in Nashville, and it was a coffee shop right in baggage claim.

And she came in, and everybody knew it.

Everybody saw and everyone was just so excited to see her, wanted to meet her, wanted to do the things.

And so she just made her rounds.

She just said hello to everybody.

She just walked around.

And then someone came to my coffee shop and asked for coffee, and I jokingly said, "I'll make you coffee if you can get Sheryl to come over here, because I can't leave."

[ Laughter ] And we laughed it off.

You know, I -- You know, I didn't think he was taking me seriously.

I was just talking my [audio drop].

[ Laughter ] And -- But he did it.

He, like, got his coffee and then went over and got Sheryl.

And she actually came over, and I was so shocked.

And I learned such an incredible artist lesson in that day, which was, "Just love people.

You know?

Just connect with the people that connect with you."

[ Cheers and applause ] And I think -- I really think that's a testament to just how pure she was.

It just felt in that moment -- it was just like, "Oh, she's just, like, a real person."

And it was awesome.

And to be able to see her again as an artist, getting to do something as incredible as this, like, honor her tonight, she's that same person all those years later.

And so it's -- it's truly an honor.

Sheryl, you've given so much -- so much to us, and it is truly the honor of my life to celebrate you tonight.

So, um... -You go, boy!

-I'll tell you -- I'll tell you something about Sheryl Crow that, of the many things I like about Sheryl Crow, one thing that might -- just might very well be my favorite.

I don't know if y'all know a whole lot of rock stars, but most of them are real [audio drop] weird.

[ Laughter ] And, you know, you try to be friends with them, and it just doesn't work.

[ Laughter ] And you see them just sort of meandering down the street in their neighborhood with their much younger girlfriends and being led around by the hand.

And Sheryl is a complete and unbroken human being, and she has done all these beautiful things while remaining a wonderful person.

And it just means the world to me to be her friend.

And so I'm happy to be here tonight.

[ Cheers and applause ] -Hi.

My name is Jess, and I'm one half of the duo Lucius, and my partner, Holly, so wishes she could be here tonight to honor our dear friend Sheryl.

But she's very sick.

-Aww.

-Yeah.

She has no voice.

So she's here with us in spirit.

And I'm gonna do my best to, uh, represent.

[ Cheers and applause ] And she helped me write this, too.

Sheryl, your voice has lived in the soundtrack of our years, growing from girls into women.

It's been a voice that allowed us to let loose, feel heard, and know a woman's power in this industry can come from musicianship, truth, and intellect, and that you don't have to take off your clothes to be sexy and badass.

[ Cheers and applause ] It was absolutely surreal when we found ourselves sitting at the piano in your living room, where you graciously invited us to write, to stay in the comforts of your home.

And then, as if it weren't gracious enough, when it came time to record, you not only agreed to sing on our record but came with such energy and enthusiasm.

You said, "I'm here to support you guys.

It's your turn, and I'm here for whatever you need."

And this is how you are with all artists and supporting other women.

And we will always aim to take that page of your playbook.

Thank you.

[ Cheers and applause ] Thank you for your kindness and supreme generosity.

We are here tonight to literally sing your praises.

And, well, since Holly is not here with me tonight, there's no one better to fill your shoes than you.
