The silence was deafening when Jill Biden announced Just Like that as the winner. 🤣Well deserved. Aretha will be smiling down from heaven that her friend beat all the young 'uns.
I think part of the reason for the silence was people were waiting to hear Jill say Bonnie's name, which never happened. Bonnie was even waiting to hear her name to make sure she was the winner. Oh, well🤦♂️ I'm so happy for Bonnie😍 I am a long-time fan. She is very deserving💖
@@GoodStuffForeverMore I didn’t even realize that, but I just watched it back and saw that she only said the song name, but not the artist. I think everyone is so used to hearing the name, for obvious reasons, come immediately after. They were either waiting respectfully to let her say Bonnie’s name so they didn’t clap over it being read or they were honestly not sure what was said since only the song title was said and not the artist. So, they needed a minute to actually comprehend what she just said. I think Bonnie herself was just shocked and then when she heard her song playing it really hit her. It’s well deserved and she was so genuinely happy 😊
Well deserved winning for Bonnie Raitt. I cried the first time i heard the song yesterday. Heartfelt, warm and beautiful lyrics. The impact of a song. Straight to the heart.
Taylor Swift is such a class act. She reveres those who came before her and she’s always happy for whoever wins. And she was dancing to everyone’s music last night!
I agree. I love how she’s always up dancing and showing support to whoever is performing live. Most of the time she’s the only one in her area that’s standing up and dancing, but she does it anyway. It’s just fun to watch.
Bonnie Raitt is a legend and her performance last night with Sheryl Crow was amazing. I had to Google Bonnie to see how old she is - 73 and still sounds amazing!
So happy for Bonnie. I get it, they wanted Beyonce or Lizzo. Bonnie is legend! She doesn't need to be on a horse half naked, Borrowing beats and flaunting her goods around. She is straight up music. Sad that folks don't appreciate it that and didn't applaud right away when she was announced as the winner!
@Ric Diaz Amen Brother! She is the Queen of Blues and Rock guitar! She will always hold my heart in her guitar Goddess hands! CSNY, John Prine, John Lee Hooker, BB King, Muddy Waters, Little Feat all the people she's played with will be shining in heaven and a few here on Earth for her win tonight! 💞🎶🎸👑🎉💃🏻🙏 You gave them something to talk about my "Angel from Montgomery"! 🙏💞🎸🎶👑🎉💃🏻🤘
@@KateFenty Bonnie doesn't need anyone to lift her up by putting anyone else down! Bonnie she's a True Guitar Goddess! She is the OG QUEEN of Blues and Rock Guitar plus her voice is smoky deep and identifiable. Beyonce will be blessed if she can still be as relevant and recognized at 52! She and all these young ladies here tonight are standing on the shoulders of the True Giant's the real Rebel Great female Musicians. The OG women who beat this door down so these youngsters could be being considered and Grammy awarded! These girls all owe this chance to be nominated or invited here was because of all the women who came before but never got an award! Goddesses like Marlina Dittrich, Sista Rosetta Tharpe, Billy Holiday, Lena Horn, Bessie Smith, Big Mama Thornton, then Bonnie Raitt, Janis Joplin, The Mama's of the Mama's and Papa's, Grace Slick, Cher, Joni Mitchell, Christine Micfee, Stevie Nicks, Carol King, Aretha Franklin, Etta James, Pointer Sisters, and so many more who've broke into the music scene but RARELY got Grammys and barely got paid much less acknowledge! So now down show respect Cardi-B, Beyonce, Lizzo, HER, Taylor Swift and all these other youngsters need to know Where TF they got a leg up from! R.E.S.P.E.C.T.!!
@@katherinehunter9526 the first person did take a jab at Beyonce tho by saying Bonnie doesn’t need to Be naked on a horse!!! They could have just said Bonnie was an amazing artist with just her guitar and didn’t single anyone else out…. She is a legend and deserves to be recognized Forsure…. But also some of these other artists are as well… Some people will be mad that they faves didn’t win but it’s ok it happens! Everyone was celebrated lasted night and we should just be happy and try to spread more love and positivity…
Bonnie Raitt is, to my mind, THE songwriter in this category. I also want to say she is among legends in the making so overall this was really a well fought race. I am elated that she won though because of something she deserves it the most. This song IS a reflection... of these times, yes, but also of all time for the person who lives in the wake of it. Just Like That elevated songwriting to something that will become (maybe has for some) a part of their grief healing journey. Everyone in the set was a well deserved nominee. Bravo and respect to each of them. But Ms. Raitt was the right choice to win.
As far as I'm concerned, this was the best moment of this entire award show. Bonnie Raitt can out sing all of them with her beautiful, soulful voice. Just my opinion.
@@katherinehunter9526 omg. do some research before spouting bs online. taylor is widely considered the songwriter of her generation & one of the best by critics, those whose opinion actually matters. Taylor was one of the very first clapping for Bonnie as well as every other winner that night & literally supports all artists, even those under the same award category. All Too Well 10mv is considered Taylor's magnum opus by many (false, she has many songs that are better) & was very much deserving of the award, yet she immediately clapped for Bonnie & cheered her on as she does everytime she loses. Taylor's been way too respectful to new/old peers since the start & makes too beautiful of art to be dissed like that.
@@katherinehunter9526 just because she's old doesn't mean she's better that old lady herself mentioned she doesn't write her songs usually in her own speech lol Grammys doing charity to her
@@amricnwhre Ms Swift's generation isn't the only generation that listens to music. She seems like a terrific person with an amazing head for business, but her music talent can't hold a match to Raitt's.
She’s a legend- amazing and her musicianship is astounding. She deserved that award- not to mention- Bonnie Raitt is completely humble and authentic.she has consistently championed charities and organizations her whole career. The others could learn a lot from her…
The song writing on her story-telling song "Just like That" was John Prine and Bob Dylan-like. I'm a 76 year old Nam Vet and still I teared up the first time I heard it.........A simple but incredibly stirring song....Thank you, Bonnie.
Nothing "shocking" about greatness!! Bonnie Raitt is one of the best singer-songwriters, musicians on the planet. Granted I haven't watched the Grammys in over 25 years but I still keep up with the music industry. Maybe Bonnie's win will convince music execs and radio stations that some of us yearn for music that is made by real musicians.
I think it’s shocking to most of the younger fans who aren’t aware of her or her music, but also to a lot of the artists at the awards because it was unexpected. It wasn’t unexpected because she’s not talented and didn’t deserve it. It’s because we had been hearing so much talk about it almost definitely going to Beyoncé or Taylor Swift. I can’t stand when there’s constant speculation to the point of assumption, but I do love when a dark horse or unexpected nomination takes the win and this is coming from a Swiftie. It was well deserved and I’m sure the other nominees were just as happy for her 😊
While I 100% feel and believe that Adele deserved that award, I feel happy for Bonnie Raitt . She is a legend and she is unproblematic.And she didn't choose the winner,but if she got it ,then she got it
Did you sit down and listen, and read the Lyrics? Easy on my is pretty, but for “song of the year” not record, not album, just the song writing none of them compare to “Just like that”.
Bonnie is such a sweet beautiful soul and this was a blessing. What you guys don't know is that she wrote this song in honor of her long time best friend who passed away from covid. His name was John Prine.
THE SONG IS ABOUT ORGAN DONATION A woman's son dies and his heart is donated to another guy. The guy knocks on her door and tells her he received her son's heart. She said my son is still alive!
The feeling that Bonnie puts in that song , can't be matched by any of the other singers ,imo . She is a master performer , just listen you get song 'I can't make you love me"
Amen! True Goddess of the Blues and Rock guitar! And her voice!🎉 So proud to see her receive this Award! Sorry she didn't think she would win! Grateful she did! 💞🎸🎶👑🎉🤘
@@SteadyNUnremitting for starters Bonnie gigged for small audiences for YEARS. Beyonce and Taylor both benefited from skyrocketing promotion and cross promotion in other fields of endeavor. Bonnie taught HERSELF to play slide guitar and immediately won the admiration of every big name in the field. That's just for starters. I'm not sure you why you wish her fans didn't admire her but you'd fare well to listen to Nick of Time which is one of precious few
I'm here after grammy song of the year. It hurts to see how ageist the comments are.....and lack of applaud were so disrespect. you don't know her doesn't mean that they don't exist...... same thing you all do with Celine Dion. You all just ignore the decades of these artists work just because they aren't heard by teenagers. Art is art.
@@okayimbackwhateverjones I have definitely seen some younger Stans out here (not on this video in particular but you get the point), and they don’t seem the most proper out of the bunch, lemme tell you that 😂
I was so rooting for Taylor Swift to get this one, even for the reasons you just mentioned. Like what I said with Harry's AOTY win, I was worried Bonnie was gonna get hit all over the place from different fanbases including Taylor's. I love Bonnie but yea I was really wanting Taylor to win.
Yes our "Angel from Montgomery", really gave them "Something to talk about", tonight! Love Bonnie Raitt and her Blues and Rock guitar playing not to mention that voice! Haunting and comforting all at the same time.. She truly is a Guitar Giant and a Gracious Goddess! 💃🏻💞🎸🎶👑🤘🎉
Taylor' s All Too Well is a classic and will forever stand out in her discography with its' heartbreaking story. The song doesn't need a grammy to validate its impact. 🖤13
Disagree. Taylor’s song is ok, but the Grammy’s made me aware of “just like that” and I cried half way through when I realized what the song was expressing. The 2nd through 25th times I bawled my eyes out. I think I can listen to it now without crying.
it looks like a home run but I wonder is it actually bigger than a hit? Bonnie brought her formidable craft to this intimate love song and out comes this really powerful message about us all. Love was speaking and Bonnie didn't flinch; a masterful piece of art.
I think it's a big deal she won because of how underrepresented women her age are in popular culture. They're all great songs, but if this one HADN'T won, most of us would never hear it. An award can (not always should) expose something important that isn't getting exposure through traditional means
You are the Lady I've gone to almost everytime I needed to feel better or want to tell someone I love you. I love to sing songs through the house cleaning You are always first pick Love you Bonnie you truley deserve it.
so very well deserved, so very talented! writes/plays awesome guitar esp slide, & been doing it for over 50 years...so well deserved!!! was blessed to see her live at UofR in NY, very small setting, & her dad was there, she was amazing her guitar playing is off the hook, her voice, her energy & Freebo was w/ her it was way back in the day, like 1972...congrats! thank you for all the music that I so enjoyed over the years, those 1st several Lps were PURE GOLD!
Bonnie - you've always been able to break my heart and in the same moment heal it. You're real. You don't hide from any emotion. Folks, Bonnie was put on this earth to tell the truth fearlessly. And she does.
If you have to lose to someone, better it be to a legend. All of the other nominees are still young. They’ll have plenty of other chances to get their own.
Shocking looks on her face is totally priceless!!! Anyone thought Bonnie would win this is making people love her music especially at her age it's proves you are never too old WIN a Grammy!!
As Harry Styles put it best... there is no best... it's an award not based on who is best... just an "entertainment" award based on votes. We all know that votes have a lot of bias... but if it's important to you then yes, you'll want the recognition. The top artists show up to thank the voters, but know that it's the fans that make them successful... especially those who have a global fan base and not just in the US.
One of the hardest working female artists in the business was awarded on her merit. Most of the other nominees have been swamped by awards so it was nice to see Bonnie get recognized.
I loved Bonnie Raitt's album, and it was cool that she was acknowledged for 2 different songs. Generally, you see an artist recognized for one track that makes it into several categories. I wasn't really surprised by the nominations just because of the steady buzz & word of mouth when it came out; to win, especially for Song of the Year is quite the pleasant surprise.
I knew and loved all the other songs up for this Grammy. I expected it to go to Lizzo, TS, Beyonce or Harry...amazing songs. I never heard Bonnie R's song...still I'm thrilled for her! Why not her?!
Well Bonnie was right there were a lot of massive records to beat. But if you listen to her "And just like that" you'll feel something that surpassed what the other nominees gave.
I have no problem with Bonnie winning song of the year. It is the best written song of the bunch, IMO. Just ahead of "All Too Well." Had she won "record of the year" I'd question it.
It's enough that All too well won the video of the year. Anti-hero maybe the front runner next year for Record and Song and Album of the Year for Midnights
unfortunately this was rumored to largely be the basis of all too well being snubbed. the voters (without the album & songs in competition even existing yet) assumed anti-hero/midnights were a shoe in for next year. she's been nominated for soty SIX times with no wins because "its taylor, she'll win next year for ____" blank space was deserving, lover was v deserving, cardigan not winning was wild, but all too well (what the grammys themselves called her magnum opus) not winning is just insane. now for midnights award season sos will take aoty, flowers may take roty, & maybe anti-hero can still win soty if they don't say "ShElL gEt It NeXt YeAr FoR DeAr JoHn 20 MiNuTe VeRsIoN"
Taylor was deserving and her song mesmerizing but wasn't lyrically as good as Bonnie Raitt. But there are no wrong opinions. Bonnie Raitt winning this was the highlight.
The silence was deafening when Jill Biden announced Just Like that as the winner. 🤣Well deserved. Aretha will be smiling down from heaven that her friend beat all the young 'uns.

Bonnie Raitt is an amazing artist ,and song writer I can't make you love me is one of my all time favorites song congrat queen well deserved win👏🏾🎉.
She wrote her song about organ donation. I’m an organ recipient and sob when I listen to this song.
It’s not about length, it’s about quality and social message
Disagree. Taylor’s song is ok, but the Grammy’s made me aware of “just like that” and I cried half way through when I realized what the song was expressing. The 2nd through 25th times I bawled my eyes out. I think I can listen to it now without crying.
So deserving! And beautiful song.
Ecstatic for Bonnie. She’s pulling a Brandi Carlile right now.
I think the simplicity and heart moving character and fact that it channeled something of John Prine were why it won
And I didn't mean heart moving as a pun but there you go
it looks like a home run but I wonder is it actually bigger than a hit? Bonnie brought her formidable craft to this intimate love song and out comes this really powerful message about us all. Love was speaking and Bonnie didn't flinch; a masterful piece of art.
It wasn’t life-changing for her she’s a goddamn legend surrounded by peasants
I appreciate the academy for televising True talent winning
Seen her live at Cactus Festival in Bruges a few years ago : it made my concert!!!
Just like that and about damn time Bonnie won! See children, don’t underestimate a 70+ yr old.
I think it's a big deal she won because of how underrepresented women her age are in popular culture. They're all great songs, but if this one HADN'T won, most of us would never hear it.

The others are not any where near the league Bonnie is in.
Can we just completely get rid of stairs at award shows. With so many women in heals and fancy dresses. Really?
I loved Bonnie Raitt's album, and it was cool that she was acknowledged for 2 different songs. Generally, you see an artist recognized for one track that makes it into several categories. I wasn't really surprised by the nominations just because of the steady buzz & word of mouth when it came out; to win, especially for Song of the Year is quite the pleasant surprise.
100% deserved
All the rest will be forgotten about in years, Bonnie will be there forever.
There all winners ❤
I love how taylor always does that! At HER concerts, at award shows, everywhere, she just like: Hi/hello/hey, I'm Taylor!
I knew and loved all the other songs up for this Grammy. I expected it to go to Lizzo, TS, Beyonce or Harry...amazing songs. I never heard Bonnie R's song...still I'm thrilled for her! Why not her?!
I was listening to her song the lyrics 😭😭😭 whew chiiile. She deserves her win
Well Bonnie was right there were a lot of massive records to beat. But if you listen to her "And just like that" you'll feel something that surpassed what the other nominees gave.
I have no problem with Bonnie winning song of the year. It is the best written song of the bunch, IMO. Just ahead of "All Too Well." Had she won "record of the year" I'd question it.
Lol OK Swiftie 😂
Is the guy Mr.Big from SATC?
Completely on point. Old school rock and blues. Hmm. Just like THAT. SO glad she won. You deserve it Bonnie! A~
That's a Boss.
Exciting well Deserved
It's way past time for this National Treasure ❣️
The only REAL musician and song writer to win a Grammy in 30 years!!!
Is just the substance man.
It's enough that All too well won the video of the year. Anti-hero maybe the front runner next year for Record and Song and Album of the Year for Midnights
unfortunately this was rumored to largely be the basis of all too well being snubbed. the voters (without the album & songs in competition even existing yet) assumed anti-hero/midnights were a shoe in for next year. she's been nominated for soty SIX times with no wins because "its taylor, she'll win next year for ____" blank space was deserving, lover was v deserving, cardigan not winning was wild, but all too well (what the grammys themselves called her magnum opus) not winning is just insane. now for midnights award season sos will take aoty, flowers may take roty, & maybe anti-hero can still win soty if they don't say "ShElL gEt It NeXt YeAr FoR DeAr JoHn 20 MiNuTe VeRsIoN"
Taylor was deserving and her song mesmerizing but wasn't lyrically as good as Bonnie Raitt. But there are no wrong opinions. Bonnie Raitt winning this was the highlight.
Dick. Says he thinks Swift should have won the award but is not going to say Raitt shouldn’t - wtf does that mean?
I think it means that we shouldn't much care about his opinion
13 time Grammy winner
I fr don't know her but that's not my fault, I'm a kid so what. But she seems nice so congrats to her!!
If you enjoy music, take some time and get to know her. She is an amazing artist
Taylor will have plenty of years to win Grammys I think she'll be okay and Bonnie raitt deservantly received this award
Taylor is so cool Love Bonnie
Pov youre watching this after the diddy case

Thank you BEYONCÉ!
I upvoted your video until you said that Taylor Swift should have won. No shade on Ms Swift, but this award belongs to Bonnie Raitt.
