Earlier tonight, I asked you if it was worth watching the Grammys given the award show’s questionable history of decision making, but looking over this year’s crop of winners, I don’t think the ceremony made many glaring errors. As expected, Adele pulverized the competition en route to six Grammys. Other big winners included the Foo Fighters who took home five prizes and the late Amy Winehouse who won for Best Duet with Tony Bennett.

As for the show itself, Jennifer Hudson sparkled in her sad, yet uplifting tribute to Whitney Houston and Nicki Minaj confused in her wild red getup and date dressed as the Pope. No doubt these individual moments will be endlessly dissected after the dust settles tomorrow, but for now, it’s worth reminding ourselves exactly who won. Here’s a partial list of tonight’s recipients in some of the major categories…
