One To Remember (2014) 值得铭记的合作 -
Metallica与郎朗联袂演出该乐队名曲《One》
Metallica performs at the Grammys for the first time since 1992,
revisiting its 1988 classic “One” with classical pianist Lang Lang
-- who phones drummer Lars Ulrich in San Francisco from Bejing to
cook up the collaboration. “He’s like a conductor,” Lang says --
though most conductors don’t use pyro.

Love Is All Around (2014) 爱无所不在 -
为33对新人（性向不一）现场举行婚礼创造了历史，说唱组合马克勒莫和刘易斯与麦当娜联袂演唱该组合热单同志歌曲《Same
Love》
Macklemore, Ryan Lewis and Mary Lambert perform the gay-rights

diverse couples.
3 / 50
Down With The King (2013)
Christian MC Lecrae is the first rapper to win best gospel album
for Gravity.
4 / 50
A Cowboy’s Farewell (2012)
Glen Campbell -- a four-time Grammy winner who is suffering from
Alzheimer’s and is in the midst of a farewell tour -- is honored by
Blake Shelton, who sings his hit “Southern Nights,” and The Band
Perry, which performs “Gentle on My Mind.” Campbell then joins them
onstage to sing “Rhinestone Cowboy.”
5 / 50
Rolling In The Gold (2012)
Just two years after Beyoncé sets a record for most wins by a
female artist, Adele ties it by taking home six awards. The night
begins with a poignant tribute to Whitney Houston, who died just
the day before. Host LL Cool J speaks movingly about “a death in
the family,” and Jennifer Hudson sings “I Will Always Love
You.”
6 / 50
Which Came First, The Lady Or The Egg?
(2011)
Lady Gaga is carried down the red carpet inside a giant egg -- and
doesn’t stop for interviews because the latch is stuck. She emerges
onstage to sing “Born This Way” and wins three Grammys. She later
tells Jay Leno she spent three days in the “temperature-controlled”
egg.
7 / 50
Greatest Of Ease (2010)
The crowd at the Staples Center gasps as Pink performs aerial
gymnastics while singing “Glitter in the Air.”
8 / 50
Record Pace (2010)
Beyoncé sets a new record for a female artist when she takes home
six Grammys, including song of the year for “Single Ladies (Put a
Ring on It).” Taylor Swift becomes the youngest-ever album of the
year winner (at age 20) when Fearless nabs the trophy -- one of
seven wins to date for Swift.
9 / 50
Baby Mama Drama (2009)
A very pregnant M.I.A. performs the hook of “Swagga Like Us,”
joined by Kanye West, Jay Z, Lil Wayne and T.I. How pregnant?
Tonight is her due date. She does not give birth onstage -- her son
arrives three days later.
10 / 50
This Is 50 (2008)
For the Grammys’ golden anniversary, Tina Turner is lured out of
retirement to duet on “Proud Mary” with Beyoncé. The night’s big
winner is Amy Winehouse, who becomes the fifth woman to take home
five trophies in one night.
11 / 50
We’re Crazy, Fly Us (2007)
Dressed as airline pilots, Cee Lo Green and Danger Mouse of Gnarls
Barkley appear in the center of Los Angeles’ Staples Center to
perform a languid version of “Crazy.”
12 / 50
Lennon & McCartney Reunion (2006)
Presenter Ellen DeGeneres announces, “Our next performer needs no
introduction,” and then doesn’t give one to Paul McCartney, who
sings live on the Grammys for the first time, performing “Fine
Line” from his Chaos and Creation in the Backyard and “Helter
Skelter.” He returns later to join Linkin Park and Jay Z for
“Yesterday.” Jay Z stages a Beatles reunion by wearing a John
Lennon T-shirt.
13 / 50
Holograms Get Down (2006)
Gorillaz -- the collaboration between Damon Albarn and cartoonist
Jamie Hewlett -- appear as holograms to perform “Feel Good Inc.,”
joined onstage first by De La Soul and then by Madonna, as the
holograms segue into her song “Hung Up.”
14 / 50
Bald, Proud And Loud (2005)
A shaven-headed Melissa Etheridge appears onstage following
chemotherapy for breast cancer, and stuns the audience with a fiery
duet with Joss Stone on a Janis Joplin tribute, “Piece of My
Heart.”
15 / 50
The Big Open (2004)
One of the most memorable show openings in Grammy history features
Beyoncé teamed with Prince, for a medley of three songs from Purple
Rain and a little “Crazy in Love” thrown into the mix.
16 / 50
Strummer Calling (2003)
Bruce Springsteen, Elvis Costello, Dave Grohl and “Little Steven”
Van Zandt pay tribute to Joe Strummer, who died the previous
December at age 50, with a ferocious “London Calling.”
17 / 50
New York State Of Mind (2002)
Billy Joel and Tony Bennett team up on “New York State of Mind” in
tribute to New York after 9/11. Alan Jackson provides an emotional
moment when he performs “Where Were You (When the World Stopped
Turning).”
18 / 50
Elton & Em (2001)
Eminem battles accusations of homophobia by performing “Stan” with
Elton John. Later, host Jon Stewart says that after performing with
Elton, Eminem also has agreed to go to the bathroom with George
Michael.
19 / 50
That Dress (2000)
One of the most memorable Grammy images of all time: the green
Versace silk-chiffon dress worn by Jennifer Lopez. Her song
“Waiting for Tonight” is up for best dance recording that year.
Cher’s “Believe” wins, but 14 years later no one remembers what
Cher was wearing.
20 / 50
Smooth Operator (2000)
Carlos Santana released his first album in 1969 and won his first
Grammy in 1989. Tonight, powered by “Smooth,” he sweeps the awards
-- eight wins ties the record for the most Grammys earned in one
evening set by Michael Jackson and Thriller in 1984.
21 / 50
La Buena Vida (1999)
Ricky Martin, then virtually unknown outside the Latin pop world,
gyrates his way into the mainstream with his performance of “The
Cup of Life.”
22 / 50
“For The Children” (1998)
Wu-Tang Clan member Ol’ Dirty Bastard interrupts Shawn Colvin’s
acceptance speech for song of the year (“Sunny Came Home”) to
declare, “Wu-Tang are for the children.”
23 / 50
Soy Vey (1998)
During Bob Dylan’s performance of “Love Sick,” one of the “fans”
onstage with Dylan is performance artist Michael Portnoy, who tears
off his shirt, revealing the words “Soy Bomb” scrawled across his
chest, then launches into a memorable spastic dance.
24 / 50
This Is 40 (1998)
The 40th annual Grammys are marked by a number of all-time
stand-out moments: An hour into the live telecast, Luciano
Pavarotti tells producer Ken Ehrlich over the phone from his hotel
room that he is too ill to perform -- the first time in Grammy
history that an artist cancels an appearance while the show is
already on the air. Ehrlich races to Aretha Franklin’s dressing
room. The diva is 30 minutes away from singing “Respect” with Dan
Aykroyd and John Goodman. She agrees to also perform the aria
“Nessun Dorma” (which she had sung three days earlier at a
MusiCares fundraiser). Ehrlich would later call the 40th awards
show “the night Aretha Franklin saved the Grammys.”
25 / 50
Teenage Dream (1997)
LeAnn Rimes, 14, becomes the youngest person to win a Grammy up to
that point, when she takes home best new artist and best female
country vocal performance. (In 2002 The Peasall Sisters -- Sarah,
Hannah and Leah, ages 13, 9, and 7, respectively -- break the
record when they share in the Grammy wins for their contribution to
the O Brother Where Art Thou? soundtrack.)
26 / 50
Take A Bow, Maestro (1997)
Conductor Georg Solti becomes the most decorated man in Grammy
history when he wins his 31st award for the Chicago Symphony
Orchestra’s recording of Wagner’s “Die Meistersinger von
Nurnberg.”
27 / 50
Bono Effs It Up (1994)
U2 win best alternative music album for Zooropa and Bono accepts by
saying, “I think I’d like to give a message to the young people of
America -- and that is we shall continue to abuse our position and
f--- up the mainstream. God bless you.” He makes good on his
promise nine years later when he drops the f-bomb again while
accepting a Golden Globe for “The Hands That Built America.”
28 / 50
Mourner’s Song (1993)
Eric Clapton wins six Grammys, ending with record of the year for
“Tears in Heaven,” written after the death of his 4-year-old son
Conor. His acceptance speech is one of the most moving in Grammy
history: “The one person I want to thank is my son for the love he
gave me and the song he gave me.”
29 / 50
Rhymes With Great (1990)
Bonnie Raitt’s first album was released in 1971; 19 years later,
she wins her first Grammy -- and three more. Album of the year Nick
of Time promptly jumps to the top of the Billboard 200 on the chart
dated April 7, 1990.
30 / 50
New York, New York (1988)
The 30th annual awards are held at Radio City Music Hall, prompting
a medley of Big Apple performers in which Lou Reed’s “Walk on the
Wild Side” leads into Run-D.M.C.’s “Tougher Than Leather.”
31 / 50
License To Ill (1987)
It’s as if the MTV Video Music Awards have crashed the Grammys: The
Beastie Boys -- accompanied by DJ Hurricane -- strut onstage in
lockstep, goof their way through announcing the rock category
winners and then bestow the best rock vocal performance Grammy on
Robert Palmer. A bewildered Palmer takes the stage while Adam “MCA”
Yauch attempts a handstand or breakdance headspin -- either way, it
doesn’t work.
32 / 50
Whitney Ascendant, Tina Triumphant (1985)
“It was truly ‘A Star Is Born’ time,” producer Ken Ehrlich says of
Whitney Houston’s performance of “Saving All My Love for You”
(which itself goes on to win her an Emmy in 1986). Tina Turner wins
three awards, including record of the year for “What’s Love Got to
Do With It.”
33 / 50
Everybody Is A Star (1985)
After winning two Grammys for the Purple Rain soundtrack and
another for Chaka Kahn’s cover of his “I Feel for You,” Prince
closes the show with “Baby I’m a Star.” “Do you want some more?” he
calls out, before executing a spin and seven perfect splits. The
performance climaxes with audience members (including Boy George)
dancing onstage while Prince exits up the aisle.
34 / 50
Michael’s House (1984)
When Michael Jackson wins his seventh Grammy of the night for
Thriller, two things happen: He sets a new record for most wins at
one ceremony, and he takes his sunglasses off for the first time
that night, apparently at the request of his friend Katharine
Hepburn. He then promptly breaks his own record with an eighth win,
as “Beat It” takes record of the year.
35 / 50
Piano Summit (1983)
To celebrate the 25th anniversary of the Grammys, Ray Charles,
Jerry Lee Lewis, Little Richard and Count Basie take center stage
at four grand pianos and trade verses of Charles’ “What I’d Say.”
“Don’t sing rock’n’roll no more,” implores Richard. “Find Jesus
like I did.” But rock’n’roll wins out when Lewis answers this call
with a roaring “Whole Lotta Shaking Going On.”
36 / 50
Lennon Remembered (1982)
John Lennon and Yoko Ono’s Double Fantasy wins album of the year,
and Ono walks to the podium with 6-year-old son Sean and producer
Jack Douglas. The audience erupts into sustained applause, which
gives the overwhelmed Ono time to compose herself. Finally, she
speaks: “I really don’t know what to say. I think John is here with
us today. Both John and I were always really proud and happy that
we were part of the human race. He made good music for the earth
and for the universe.”
37 / 50
No Pants Dance (1979)
Wearing a tux jacket and no pants, Steve Martin begins to present
the best pop vocal award. His pants are then handed to him onstage
in a dry cleaning bag. Martin also receives a Grammy of his own
(his second), for best comedy recording for A Wild and Crazy
Guy.
38 / 50
Welcome To The Hotel California (1978)
The sound of Los Angeles studio rock reigns at the 20th Grammys.
Record of the year goes to the Eagles’ “Hotel California” while
Crosby, Stills & Nash present album of the year to Fleetwood
Mac for Rumours.
39 / 50
Thanks, Stevie (1976)
Accepting his album of the year award for Still Crazy After All
These Years, Paul Simon says, “Most of all, I’d like to thank
Stevie Wonder, who didn’t make an album this year.”
40 / 50
Simon vs. Garfunkel (1975)
Paul Simon is one of the presenters for record of the year. When
Olivia Newton-John’s “I Honestly Love You” wins, Art Garfunkel
accepts on her behalf. “I thought I told you to wait in the car,”
Simon jokes when he comes to the podium. Not to be outdone,
Garfunkel deadpans, “Still writing, Paul?” Stevie Wonder wins
back-to-back album of the year awards, following his Innervisions
trophy with one for Fulfillingness’ First Finale.
41 / 50
Back-To-Back Flack (1974)
Roberta Flack becomes the first artist to win back-to-back record
of the year awards, following her Grammy for “The First Time Ever I
Saw Your Face” with one for “Killing Me Softly.” Only U2 has
repeated the feat, winning with “Beautiful Day” in 2001 and “Walk
On” in 2002.
42 / 50
She Watches Over Us (1973)
A single word makes for one of the most memorable acceptance
speeches in Grammy history when Helen Reddy acknowledges her win
for best pop performance female for “I Am Woman” by saying, “And I
would like to thank God, because she makes everything
possible.”
43 / 50
King Is Queen (1972)
Carole King wins four Grammys, including album of the year for
Tapestry, and becomes the first woman to win song of the year for
“You’ve Got a Friend.”
44 / 50
Live From L.A. (1971)
After years of taped post-Grammy telecasts titled The Best on
Record, the Grammys air live on TV for the first time -- and the
awards dinners in multiple cities come to an end. Andy Williams
hosts for the first of seven times, and Simon & Garfunkel win
five awards (although they don’t appear to be speaking to each
other) with Bridge Over Troubled Water taking album of the year and
the title track winning song and record of the year. Aretha
Franklin performs “Bridge Over Troubled Water” during the broadcast
and, a year later, wins best female R&B vocal performance for
her own recording of the song.
45 / 50
Holy Elvis (1968)
The Grammys had not yet been invented when Elvis Presley was
helping invent rock’n’roll in 1954, so it isn’t until 1968 that
Presley wins his first award (of three) for best sacred performance
for How Great Thou Art.
46 / 50
Meet The Beatles (1965)
The Beatles win the first two of their nine awards: best new artist
and best performance by a vocal group (for “A Hard Day’s Night”).
They also are nominated in two other categories, losing out to
songs that go on to be classics: Record of the year goes to Astrud
Gilberto and Stan Getz’s “Girl From Ipanema” (not “I Want to Hold
Your Hand”) and best contemporary song goes to Petula Clark’s
“Downtown” (not “A Hard Day’s Night”).
47 / 50
Rock Arrives (1962)
A new category is added: best rock’n’roll recording. The winner:
“Let’s Twist Again” by Chubby Checker. Mancini is the first artist
to run up a big Grammy total in one night, when “Moon River” helps
him take home five awards.
48 / 50
Genius Recognized (1961)
Ray Charles is the night’s big winner, nabbing his first four
golden gramophones for The Genius of Ray Charles. The arranger on
that album? Quincy Jones, who’ll go on to become the second-most
decorated man in Grammy history, with 27 wins.
49 / 50
TV Debut (1959)
The second awards are given out six months after the first, on Nov.
29, and the TV audience gets its first taste of the Grammys when
taped portions air on NBC Sunday Showcase, hosted by Meredith
Wilson (author of the book and music for The Music Man). Performers
run the gamut from jazz to folk to sacred music: Nat “King” Cole,
Bobby Darin, Ella Fitzgerald, The Kingston Trio and The Mormon
Tabernacle Choir. Darin takes home best new artist and record of
the year for “Mack the Knife.”
50 / 50
The First Grammys (1959)
The inaugural Grammy Awards are not televised. Trophies are handed
out at dinners in New York and Los Angeles on May 4. The very first
song of the year and record of the year awards go to Domenico
Modugno’s “Nel Blu Dipinto Di Blu (Volare).” Henry Mancini wins the
first of his 20 Grammys when The Music From Peter Gunn is named
album of the year. Frank Sinatra loses out to “Volare” and Mancini,
but still wins the first of his 11 awards when Only the Lonely
takes home best recording package.
