During her Saturday set at Stagecoach Festival in Indio, California, Carrie Underwood paid tribute to the late country icon and one half of the mother-daughter musical duo The Judds, who died earlier that day at age 76. Underwood took a moment to say a few words onstage before performing her song "See You Again," which includes the bittersweet refrain: "I will see you again / This is not where it ends / I will carry you with me / Till I see you again." "This next song goes out to everybody who's ever lost someone that they loved, which is everybody," Underwood said. "But just because the people that we love are not here with us does not mean that they are not here with us and does not mean that you will not see them again someday." The singer then took a moment to point up towards the sky. Carrie Underwood; Naomi Judd on April 11, 2022.
