Grammys 2020: Alicia Keys performs playful remix of Lewis Capaldi’s single Someone You Loved


ALICIA Keys joked that her fellow artists should keep their Grammy Award speeches short in a playful remix of Lewis Capaldi’s hit song, Someone You Loved.

The 15-time Grammy winner chose to get guests into the mood for the ceremony by bringing out the piano and showing off her famous skills.

She explained: “Music is that one language we can all speak. No matter where we’re from. We all understand it.”

Alicia then began to sing in the tune of Someone You Loved: “Rosalía’s hot, Beyoncé took us all on safari/We obsessed by BTS, HER, and Lewis Capaldi—”

The hitmaker broke from the song to ask Lewis if he was okay with her covering his hit song, to which he gave her an delighted thumbs-up.

Alicia continued: “Jonas Brothers return/Billie and Phineas/Camila like Shawn, they call her señorita/Ariana went next/Tyler brought us “Igor”/Lil Nas rode that road ’til he couldn’t no more.”

The chorus then followed: “It’s the Grammys/Gonna have a ball/And here’s Alicia Keys/To get you through it all/If you like country/Or you prefer Young Thug/Imma getcha kinda used to hearing music you love…”

While the next verse went: “Commander impeached, y’all/Get out, get Cardi B in/Cause music changes the world/Just like Beethoven said/Old dude had a wig/But I still give him some cred.

“It’s just too many lies/Too much hate, too much spin/It’s when good people do nothing that the bad guys win…

And the next chorus followed: “But it’s the Grammys/Ten thousand hours long/So keep the speeches short/And go for one more song/To all my overkills/And all my underdogs/Imma getcha kind of used to knowing music is love.”

All eyes were on the Staples Center in Los Angeles as the 62nd Grammy awards kicked off.

Aerosmith performed live at the 2020 MusiCares Person Of The Year event in their honour.

While John Legend, DJ Khaled, Meek Mill, Roddy Ricch, YG and Kirk Franklin were on hand for a tribute to the late, Grammy-nominated Nipsey Hussle.
