Click here to see a full list of winners and read our thoughts on the big show below.

Favorite performance of the night: A tie between Kanye West and Beyoncé and Tina Turner. Kanye’s glow in the dark performance of “Stronger” combined with his heartfelt tribute to his mother was a highlight. Beyoncé proves she is one of the greatest performers of our time.

Best dressed: We gotta give it to Beyoncé although there was no clear winner.

Favorite moment: Amy Winehouse’s surprised reaction upon winning Record of the Year.

Biggest disappointment: Kanye West’s loss to Herbie Hancock for Album of the Year. Kanye was robbed yet again of the top trophy. At least he could have lost to Amy Winehouse.
