Melissa Etheridge, a 64-year-old singer, has revealed that her first Grammy nomination was for "Bring Me Some Water," but it was for a performance at the 1989 Grammys that made her feel like she'd "made it." She also shared her gratitude for her long career and her 17th studio album, "Rise," which was released in March. She said that performing was a bigger deal than winning a Grammy or being nominated for a Grammy. Etheridge's first performance was at the Grammys in 1989, and her first win was in 1993 for "Ain't It Heavy". She has been nominated 15 times in total and won the Oscar for "I Need to Wake Up," from the documentary Anvenient Truth.
