The songwriting team of Josh Kear and Chris Tompkins have done it again. After landing their first GRAMMY together for writing Carrie Underwood’s 2008 hit “Before He Cheats,” they landed another one this year for Carrie’s smash 2012 hit “Blown Away.”

“I didn’t expect this one,” Chris Tompkins said when he and Josh took the stage to accept their award.

The singer of “Blown Away” was given her own award, too, less than two hours later, during the televised portion of the GRAMMYs. Carrie Underwood took the stage to accept her GRAMMY for Best Country Solo Performance for “Blown Away.”

Taking the stage, Carrie looked beautiful but seemed a mixture of shaky and excited. “Country music has always been so good to me,” she said, “and I thank the lord that I’m part of such a talented, wonderful family.” She then gave a shout-out to both God and her “perfect husband Mike [Fisher].”
