As Daft Punk and Macklemore & Ryan Lewis cleaned up at the Grammy Awards on Sunday, the two along with Kendrick Lamar, Lorde and more brought a night of memorable performances. See the best videos from the Grammys below.
9) Beyonce ft. Jay Z “Drunk in Love”
Queen Bey got the party started right with material off of her surprise 2013 album, performing “Drunk in Love” with Jay Z. Most importantly, it’s worth nothing that Beyonce’s outfit couldn’t have been anymore scintillating if she tried.
8) Lorde “Royals”
Lorde owned a subdued interpretation of her global hit, “Royals,” though we’re not quite sure if she went crazy with the acrylic nails or if she had some frostbite. Either way, her spot is safely secured on “American Horror Story” should she choose to explore that avenue.
7) Katy Perry ft. Juicy J “Dark Horse”
Katy Perry and Juicy J appear to have made their bid for this year’s illuminati video with the morbid sequence for “Dark Horse.” The haunting demonic creatures in the background appear to have been taken from the Tom Cruise ’80s cult classic, “Legend.” Is Juicy J the new accessory for all young pop starlets?
6) Taylor Swift “All Too Well”
What would the Grammys be without having a constant pulse on Taylor Swift? The evening contained the über talented songstress behind the piano on the emotionally charged, “All Too Well,” that we can only assume is about her ex-boyfriend.
5) Pink “Try” and “Just Give Me One Reason”
Pink decided to incorporate her side job as a Cirque du Soleil artist. In the process, she further proved that no matter how much time we spend in the gym, Pink will always be in better shape.
4) Nine Inch Nails ft. Lindsey Buckingham and Queens of the Stone Age
Lindsey Buckingham out-muscled Trent Reznor on “Copy of A” with a commanding guitar and backing vocal contribution that made us all forget Fleetwood Mac for two minutes. Not to be outdone, Josh Homme and the Queens of the Stone Age pulverized the crowd with a pounding performance of “My God is the Sun.”
3) Daft Punk “Get Lucky”
Before winning record of the year, Daft Punk finally treated fans to a live televised performance of the hit, “Get Lucky.” The robots were joined by Nile Rodgers and Stevie Wonder.

2) Imagine Dragons and Kendrick Lamar
The Grammys pitted two of the youngest acts on the scene together to what on paper would look like a certain train wreck. However, Kendrick Lamar and Imagine Dragons made sweet music together despite their obvious contrasting artistic styles.
1) Macklemore & Lewis ft. Mary Lambert and Madonna “Same Love”
Macklemore & Lewis decided to bring the “Same Love” with a twist. Queen Latifah brought together many couples to exchange vows during a historic first of its kind during an awards ceremony. Madonna has always championed equal love for all and she put her stamp whilst donning her best cowgirl garb contributing a medley of “Open Your Heart.”
