DreamWorks Records recording artist TOBY KEITH wins big awards this week. Fueled by the success of his newest album, "PULL MY CHAIN," and the current single, "I Wanna Talk About Me," he picked up the award for Male Vocalist of the Year Wednesday night at this year's Country Music Association (CMA) Awards. Additionally, he won BMI's prestigious Songwriter/Artist of the Year Award and three songwriter performance awards for his songs "You Shouldn't Kiss Me Like This," "When Country Comes To Town" and "How Do You Like Me Now?!"

Keith will also makes an appearance on "Touched By An Angel," where he performs his next single "My List." The song conveys the message about keeping your personal list of priorities together.
