Vote: Which was Grammy 2015’s best performance of the night?

For a while, it looked as though Kanye West’s attempting to snatch a Grammy out of the hands of “Best Album” winner Beck, would’ve taken best performance at last night’s Grammys.

After all, we’ve seen it all before – back in ’09 when West attempted to take an MTV video award away from Taylor Swift – much to the amazement of the audience and Swift herself.

But enough of him.

Jackasses, unfortunately when given a platform, will always be jackasses.

There were plenty of other performances – albeit without the histrionics - worthy of accolades.
What with AC/DC opening up the show, you got the impression it was going to be a harkening back to a time when “hair bands” were all the rage.

Not so.

While Sam Smith was the biggest winner of the evening (surprising that West didn’t try and snatch one of those); the show was all about the performances.

For one, AC/DC proving yet again that the 80s won’t go down without a fight – but seemingly miscast.

Or, for that matter, Madonna – who has a new album “Rebel Heart” about to be released – is still trying desperately to regain her mid to late 80s form by simulating sex onstage with her dancers dressed as bulls.

I wanted to be kind – but the performance of her latest single – "Living for Love" - was like watching a trainwreck in slow motion.

And you tell me. Did Sir Paul McCartney look just a little lost singing with Rihanna and West doing “FourFive Seconds?”

No, they were not the “Fab 3!”

Katy Perry and Beyonce deserve special mention – but a couple of standouts were Hozier doing a duet with Annie Lennox, who just out and out killed it with “I Put a Spell on You” – and Sam Smith’s duet with Mary J Blige performing the Grammy winning “Stay with Me!”

Topping it all was the multitalented Lady Gaga singing and dancing alongside the octogenarian Tony Bennett with “Cheek to Cheek!” Gaga rarely disappoints and shows just how much she owes to Madonna by cleverly being able to change images at her whim.

Fact it, Gaga does it with the greatest of ease - whereas Madonna seems to be stuck in a time warp!

Uneventful? Not really – thanks to Kanye.

It’s only too bad Prince – who presented the Best Album award to Beck - didn’t hit West in the crotch with his cane!
