Keith Urban and Carrie Underwood were big winners at the 2017 CMT Music Awards on Wednesday, as both artists took home two of the biggest awards of the night.

Urban won Video of the Year and Male Video of the Year for "Blue Ain't Your Color" and Underwood took home Female Video of the Year for "Church Bells," but that wasn't all, according to the United Press International.

The two won Collaborative Video of the Year as well for their song "The Fighter."

"I don't know what to say," Urban said, according to USA Today. "This award is for everybody watching this, everybody outside who couldn't get in, everybody who comes to see us play in concert. I wish God's blessings for you and all of your families. I love making music."

Underwood became the artist with the most wins in the history of the CMT Awards on Wednesday, as she's now received 17 awards at the country music event, UPI noted.

"Thank you to all the people who came out to see us on tour and were a part of this video," Underwood said while accepting her Female Video of the Year award. "This awards show is really cool because it's fan voted…Go Preds!"
