What about Rihanna’s wardrobe choice? She is always red hot on the red carpet, and tonight was no exception. Although: Was she a little understated tonight? Who’s on your fashion dos and don’ts list? We’ve seen some memorable getups.
Paul McCartney: still amazing on bass, drums, guitar, piano, you name it. Could he have handled that harp, during the Usher performance? I would not be surprised.
Here is what I’m wondering as we sail into the commercial: What are your thoughts about superstars like the three we just saw getting together? Does it work? Is it such a spectacle, so important to the integration of musical styles, that the results don’t matter much?
What did you think of the onstage chemistry? Was everybody’s ego in check?
Was Paul McCartney just embarrassed by the camera attention? Hilarious!
I do, and I’m here to bring you up to speed: ELO is the acronym for Electric Light Orchestra, the band Lynne helmed from 1970 to 1986. Its hits included the chestnuts “Strange Magic” and “Evil Woman,” which is what we’re being treated to right now by the new incarnation, called Jeff Lynne’s ELO.
We are really on a roll of stunning performances, music fans. From Ed Sheeran we go straight into Jeff Lynne’s ELO. Who remembers the band from its heyday?
If that song didn’t get your heart fluttering, what will? Romance is alive and well at the 57th GRAMMYs.
He’s been nominated for three GRAMMY”S tonight: Best Pop Vocal Album, Best Song Written for Visual Media and a little-known category known as ALBUM OF THE YEAR. Go Ed! And keep going John Mayer on that hot pink Jackson guitar!
Sheeran is 23. And he’s got a birthday coming up: Feb. 17.
For those who aren’t yet well versed in all things Sheeran: The song is off of the British singer’s 2014 sophomore album “x.”
”Thinking Out Loud” could also be called “Evergreen.” It’s part of the lyrics, and it’s so fitting — the sentiments he’s expressing here are timeless. He’s a gifted, beautiful songwriter.
Who’s this teaming up with Ed? Amazing: John Mayer, Questlove! And — hold up — Herbie Hancock! This is GRAMMY magic.
And now for more pre-Valentine’s Day romantic tremors: It’s Ed Sheeran with the beautiful “Thinking Out Loud.” Everyone should think out loud with this much grace. Ed Sheeran is a man without filters. A man who needs no filters.
Beyonce woud sparkle in anything, but in this black dress she is glimmering. Short, sweet acceptance.
Best R&B Performance goes to Beyoncé for "Drunk In Love" and the BeyHive goes wild

Excellent: a win for Beyonce. Tough to argue with that choice.
