When Travis came out on stage, Top said these kinds of words about him.

“Well, I’m trying to do as good as justice as I can to one of this man’s songs. It’s one of my favorites and a whole bunch of his are all my favorites. So I hope you all enjoy this tonight,”

Top, clearly a fan of Travis, chose to honor the “Forever and Ever, Amen” singer with a cover of his classic hit “1982.” The song, although titled “1982,” was released in 1985 and written by Buddy Blackmon and Vip Vipperman.

The song was an apt choice by Top as it was the song that took Travis to the next level of his career.
