Trace Adkins wins ACM's Single of the Year Award

Trace Adkins won his first Acadamy of Country Music Award since 1996. He picked up the 2009 Single of the Year award for 'You're Gonna Miss This.' No one was more surprised about the win than Trace himself.

"I have to tell you the truth. This song was recorded by a father whose oldest daughter had just gotten married. It was very personal to me, and I didn't think other people would relate to it the way I did," he said. "So it was put on a greatest hits album as a bonus track. Mike Dungan, President of Capitol Records, called one day and told me it was gonna be a single. And I said, 'Go ahead, but ain't nobody gonna play it.' I'm glad I'm an idiot!"
