Congrats, Joanne!! Hugs to you, girl. You deserve it. I voted for you and David Pendragon in the Celtic division.
"Grits is one of those country-boy words that is both singular and plural-like deer, elk and sheep. I think the singular is appropriate when there's a modifier that makes it clear one is talking about something specific. Like, 'Grits are good for you, but these here grits is tasty.'"~~Joe Wrabek

You're pretty awesome yourself, Joanne. Yeah, he's done some good work, for sure. He collabs with another songwriter friend of mine.
