It breaks a tie with Frank Sinatra, Paul Simon and Stevie Wonder, who each won the honor three times.

91裸聊视频淔or me, the award is the work,91裸聊视频� she said. 91裸聊视频淎ll I want to do is keep doing it.91裸聊视频�

And she will (more on that later). Swift was the last example of an action-packed show where women earned the biggest honors and had the majority of the most memorable performances. Miley Cyrus powerfully belted 91裸聊视频淔lowers, which won record of the year. Billie Eilish91裸聊视频檚 ballad from 91裸聊视频淏arbie,91裸聊视频� 91裸聊视频淲hat Was I Made For?91裸聊视频� was song of the year for her and co-writer Finneas O91裸聊视频機onnell, her brother. Singer-songwriter Victoria Mon茅t .

There were so many riches that , with Julien Baker, Phoebe Bridgers and Lucy Dacus, won three Grammys and didn91裸聊视频檛 even make it onto the CBS portion of the show.

Making the best pop vocal solo performance the televised show91裸聊视频檚 first award 91裸聊视频� where all five nominees were women 91裸聊视频� was a savvy hint to what was coming.

TRACY91裸聊视频橲 TURN

Bringing the reclusive Tracy Chapman on to duet with country singer Luke Combs, who had a massive hit covering her 91裸聊视频淔ast Car91裸聊视频� this past summer, was spine-tingling. In a pre-taped segment leading into it, Combs eloquently described what the song meant to him growing up. Clearly moved, Chapman91裸聊视频檚 eyes glistened when the crowd roared as she played the 1988 song91裸聊视频檚 unforgettable guitar riff. She91裸聊视频檚 kept to the background as Combs brought the song to a new generation, and chose a wise place to reemerge.

SOME FLOWERS FOR MILEY

Not to diss more elaborately-staged affairs, but there was a certain power to Cyrus91裸聊视频� performance of 91裸聊视频淔lowers.91裸聊视频� It was just her and the song, essentially. There was no question she could carry it, and she even inserted a couple of ad-libs: 91裸聊视频淚 just won my first Grammy!91裸聊视频� Her acceptance speeches were packed with personality. 91裸聊视频淚 don91裸聊视频檛 think I91裸聊视频檝e forgotten anyone,91裸聊视频� she said, after a requisite list of thank-yous, 91裸聊视频渂ut I may have forgotten underwear.91裸聊视频�

JAY-Z NEVER FORGETS

In accepting the Dr. Dre Global Impact Award, Jay-Z proved he has a long memory. He recalled the times that rap artists were outspoken about not getting enough attention from the Grammys commensurate with music sales, even boycotting a show 91裸聊视频� although 91裸聊视频渢hey went to a hotel to watch the Grammys,91裸聊视频� he said. 91裸聊视频淚t wasn91裸聊视频檛 a great boycott.91裸聊视频� Jay-Z considers it an injustice that his wife, Beyonc茅, has never won album of the year despite her . 91裸聊视频淲hen I get nervous,91裸聊视频� he said, 91裸聊视频淚 tell the truth.91裸聊视频�

JONI91裸聊视频橲 RETURN

Joni Mitchell91裸聊视频檚 return to the stage earned her a Grammy and her performance Sunday was another emotional highlight. Surrounded by musical friends like Brandi Carlile, the 80-year-old Mitchell sat in an easy chair that resembled a throne, tapping her cane as she sang 91裸聊视频淏oth Sides Now.91裸聊视频� Her voice, which she had to recover after suffering a brain aneurysm, brought a richness and perspective to the song that could only be hinted at in the original. Like Chapman, she was visibly moved by the audience91裸聊视频檚 reception, betrayed by laughter after she finished.

TOUCHING TRIBUTES

Let91裸聊视频檚 be honest, those 91裸聊视频渋n memoriam91裸聊视频� tributes to people who died in the past year usually signal that it91裸聊视频檚 time for a bathroom break. Not so here. Stevie Wonder honored on a chilling 91裸聊视频渄uet91裸聊视频� with a filmed Bennett on Wonder91裸聊视频檚 91裸聊视频淔or Once in My Life,91裸聊视频� then sang Bennett91裸聊视频檚 91裸聊视频淭he Best is Yet to Come.91裸聊视频� Annie Lennox, saluting , sang 91裸聊视频淣othing Compares 2 U,91裸聊视频� with two of the late songwriter Prince91裸聊视频檚 accompanists. And Fantasia Barrino shook the walls with 91裸聊视频淧roud Mary91裸聊视频� to honor .

LATE 91裸聊视频楲IGHTS91裸聊视频�

The Grammys no doubt intended Billy Joel91裸聊视频檚 performance of his first new song in 30 years, 91裸聊视频淭urn the Lights Back On,91裸聊视频� to be a big show-capper. But the Grammys91裸聊视频� previous three hours were a hard act to top.

HARD WORK

To the public, it sometimes seems that stars arrive suddenly, but Mon茅t and SZA offered charming reminders of all the hard work and dreams that go into success. After disarmingly thanking 91裸聊视频渢he champagne servers of tonight,91裸聊视频� Mon茅t described the 15-year journey that took her to a best new artist award. 91裸聊视频淢y roots have been growing underneath the ground for so long 91裸聊视频� and I feel like today I91裸聊视频檓 sprouting,91裸聊视频� she said. There was a brief pause before SZA accepted an award for best R&B song, since she was changing backstage. But she was overwhelmed after recalling, with the trophy presented by Lizzo, the days a decade ago when they opened shows in small clubs. She hustled offstage when the tears flowed. 91裸聊视频淚91裸聊视频檓 not an attractive crier,91裸聊视频� she said.

PROMO TIME

Yes, we understand that artists are always on the lookout to promote their work. But when Swift took time in accepting an award to announce that in April, and said she would share cover art on social media, it felt 91裸聊视频� cheap. Like she was hijacking the event for her own purposes, with news she knew would overshadow much of what was happening. U2, beamed in from a concert at their Las Vegas residency, felt like they were promoting an arena instead of their own work, lost as they were in the razzle-dazzle. Two forgettable moments for two big stars.

TREVOR KNOWS

Props to Trevor Noah for his job as host. His enthusiasm for the music world can seem puppy dog-like, but it beats insult comics and ironists Opening the show from the arena91裸聊视频檚 floor, walking around to point out the stars, Noah built spirit for people there and at home alike. He got in some good lines, too, like when he noted Universal Music was . 91裸聊视频淗ow dare you rip off all the artists,91裸聊视频� he said. 91裸聊视频淪hame on you.

Unlike her , Swift appeared to be enjoying Noah.
