Grammy's 2015: O Sam Smith σάρωσε
Η 57η απονομή των μουσικών Βραβείων Grammy έγινε και ο μεγάλος νικητής είναι ο Sam Smith και το κομμάτι Stay with Me.
Φυσικά δεν έλειψαν τα επεισόδια, καλλιτεχνικής φύσης με τον Κanye West να δηλώνει επί σκηνής την αντίθεσή του με τη βράβευση του Beck για το Album of the Year, αφού κατά τη γνώμη του το album της Βeyonce ήταν καλύτερο. Συμβαίνουν κι αυτά...
