Jessica told the Grand Ole Opry crowd about how she started crying when she first heard the song “Remember That” and knew God wanted her to sing it.
“It’s a very personal song for a lot of women,” Simpson told the audience Saturday in introducing the track from her new album “Do You Know,” which is out on Tuesday.
Written by Rachel Proctor and Victoria Banks, the song deals with abuse and ends with the line, “Take it from me, I’ve stood in your shoes.”
She also sang “Sipping on History” and her single, “Come On Over,” which peaked at No. 18 on the Billboard country chart.
Wearing a black dress and heels, Simpson was backed by a pair of female singers and a seven-piece band that included fiddle, mandolin and steel guitar.
“It’s such an honor to be standing here before you tonight. I feel very, very blessed,” she said.
The crowd applauded after each song, and as she left the stage, a fan handed her roses.
“God bless you guys,” she said after her last song.
Simpson, 28, who was born and raised in Texas, went back to her roots to try country music after her last pop album failed.
During Simpson’s Opry performance, the singer/actress described herself as a “country girl at heart” and said she felt at home in the genre.
She appeared during the portion of the show televised on the Great American Country cable network. Country Music Hall of Famer Loretta Lynn, Patty Loveless and newcomer Crystal Shawanda were also on the segment.
