“Morning Phase” was quite a surprise win by Beck as the ‘Album of the Year’. While delivering his acceptance speech, Kanye West interrupted but made it seem a funny moment rather than a serious one. Post the award function; Kanye said that Beck should have handed over the award to Beyonce. Jay Z was horrified seeing Kanye on stage but changed his shocking expression to a laughing one. Max Martin who has produced some of the greatest songs such as Shake it Off, Bang Bang and Break Free won the Producer of the Year (Non-Classical). Sia performed her popular single “Chandelier”, but showing her back towards the audience throughout her performance.

An Oscar nominated song –”Glory” from the movie “Selma” was performed by John Legend and Common closing the awards. For the record, Sam Smith won three of the top four Grammy Awards.
