CMA Awards 2012: Must-See Performance Looks

Taylor Swift

Swift transformed the Nashville stage into a cafe to perform "Begin Again," which includes the lyrics "I've been spending the last eight months thinking all love ever does is break and burn and end, but on a Wednesday in a cafe, I watched it begin again." The performance was tender and sweet, just like Taylor, and of course, she wore a red dress to channel her new album's title, Red.
