Nel post precedente vi abbiamo mostrato l’aspetto glamour dei Grammy Awards 2015, ora però vogliamo entrare nel vivo della kermesse e commentare insieme a voi la lista dei vincitori.

Vero e proprio protagonista della serata è stato senz’altro Sam Smith che si è accaparrato gli ambitissimi premi di “Miglior Artista Esordiente” e “Registrazione dell’anno“, giusto per citarne alcuni.

A salire sul carro dei vincitori, però, anche glorie ben consolidate della musica da Beyonce a Pharell Williams, da Lady Gaga a Tony Bennet, premiati per aver firmato il “Miglior album pop tradizionale“.
