Rendering 14: Music

The article 'Rolling in the awards: Kelly Clarkson and Adele take top honours at the Grammys' was published on the website of the Daily Mail on February 12, 2013. It was written by Amelia Proud.

The aim of the article is to tell about the ceremony of Grammy Awards, about its winners and nominations.

The author describes the beginning of the 55th Grammy Awards opened with inimitable British chantreuse Adele walking away with her ninth award from the coveted ceremony. Also Ms Proud notes Kelly Clarkson and Adele take top honours at the Grammys as pop's glamour girls Taylor Swift, Katy Perry and Rihanna go home empty-handed. As Adele was honoured for Best Pop Solo Performance for Set Fire to the Rain (Live), while Clarkson received Best Pop Vocal Album for Stronger.

Further the author tells about bands. Mumford & Sons, who came out to perform their smash hit, I Will Wait. They won the coveted Album of the Year Award for Babel, and an another for Best Long-Form music video for Big Easy Express.

Amelia Proud dwells upon the most interesting and outstanding nominations. Beyonce won for best traditional R&B performance, Mumford & Sons took their first Grammy, winning along with Old Crow Medicine Show and Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros for their long form video documentary Big Easy Express. The Grammy for Best Urban Contemporary Album then went to Frank Ocean for Channel Ocean. Best Rap/Sung Collaboration went to No Church in the Wild with Jay-Z, Kanye West and The-Dream. And Record of the Year went to Somebody That I Used to Know performed by Gotye and Kimbra.

During the whole the article, the author tells not only about the winner but also about the people who went on stage and sang. The most outstanding performances was made by Rihanna, Taylor Swift, Justin Timberlake and Jay-Z, Frank Ocean and Elton John.

In conclusion of the article it was given the whole list of the winner. To my mind, this article is really useful not only because of the information towards the nomintaions but also it gives a detailed information about the whole Grammy with the help of innumerable photoes.
