Nate Smith wants to make sure he never forgets his own lyrics at a show again.

He talked about it recently on CMT’s “Hot 20 Countdown”.

Earlier this month, he consoled Luke Bryan on Instagram after a video blew up of Luke forgetting some lyrics at a show in Fort Worth, Texas.

Nate said, “I feel you,” and posted a clip of himself forgetting the lyrics to “Better Boy” at a recent gig.

When they asked him about it, Nate said he still cringes when he hears it, and it wasn’t the first time it’s happened. So he’s resorted to using a “confidence monitor” at his shows.

It’s an industry term for a screen down by your feet that has all the lyrics on it.

He said he rarely needs it, but it’s nice to know it’s there.
