Miranda Lambert performed “Bluebird” during CBS’ A Home For The Holidays special on Sunday (Dec. 20).
The country superstar performed a stripped down rendition of the popular track from what appeared to be her house on her couch.
“I love ‘Bluebird.’ It’s a song like I’ve never written before and I’m so proud to be a part of it,” the superstar previously shared in a press release about the song. “Since I wrote it, I’ve been seeing bluebirds everywhere. The bluebirds had always been there – I live on a farm – but I never saw them like I see them now. It reminds me to open my eyes to what’s around me. Now, seeing a bluebird sitting on a branch means so much more to me. I see a little piece of hope there, sitting with wings, and it’s a reminder. I think this is one of those songs where every person takes what they need to from it.”

“Bluebird” was co-written by Lambert alongside Natalie Hemby and Luke Dick. The track is the second radio single from Lambert‘s latest album, Wildcard. The song was Lambert’s first No. 1 song on country radio since her single “Automatic” that hit No. 1 in 2014.
The 1-hour award-winning special shines a light on the thousands of American children in foster care and continues to inspire tens of thousands of adoptions, moving these children into loving “forever” homes. During the broadcast, viewers also got to witness three virtual adoptions that took place on air.
A Home For The Holidays also featured performances by Meghan Trainor, Josh Groban, Miranda Lambert, Leslie Odom, Jr. and Andrea Bocelli.
Hosted by Gayle King, the 22nd annual A Home For The Holidays aired on Sunday (Dec. 20) at 9:30-10:30 PM EST on CBS as well as streamed live and on-demand on CBS All Access.
