导读:第58届格莱美颁奖礼于洛杉矶当地时间2月15日,下午5点在斯坦普斯中心盛大举行。

The singer - who is the first woman to win the award twice - also won best pop vocal album and best music video for her track Bad Blood. Rapper Kendrick Lamar won the most prizes on the night with five awards. British singer Ed Sheeran also won his first two Grammys for song of the year and best pop solo performance for his number one hit Thinking Out Loud. A surprised Sheeran beat Lamar, Swift, country group Little Big Town and Wiz Khalifa to the song of the year accolade.

Taylor Swift是第一位两次拿下该奖项的女性,她同时获得“最佳流行演唱专辑奖”和“最佳音乐录影带奖”(《Bad Blood》)。说唱歌手Kendrick Lamar斩获五项大奖,成为本届格莱美最大的赢家。英国歌手Ed Sheeran凭借他的热门单曲《Thinking Out Loud》获得“年度歌曲奖”和“最佳流行歌手奖”,这是他在格莱美颁奖礼上获得的前两座奖杯。Sheeran出乎意料地打败了Lamar, Swift, 乡村音乐组合Little Big Town和Wiz Khalifa获得“年度歌曲奖”。

"We wrote [the song] on a couch in my house. Thanks to my parents who’ve flown to the Grammys every year for the last four years and every time I lose I say ’maybe next year’," he said as he collected the award. "If you’d told my 11-year-old self I would receive an award from Stevie Wonder I’d be chuffed."

他在获奖感言中说:“我们在我家的沙发上写了这首歌。感谢我的父母在过去的四年里每年都飞过来参加格莱美,每一次我没得奖,我都会说“下一次应该可以”。如果你在我11岁的时候告诉我Stevie Wonder会为我颁奖,我一定会抚掌大笑。”

Swift was equally surprised at winning the top honour. Her album, which was released in 2014, came out too late to be eligible for last year’s awards so was finally recognised at this year’s ceremony. She gave a powerful acceptance speech saying: "As the first woman to win album of the year at the Grammys twice, I want to say to young women: There are going to be people along the way who will try to undercut your success or take credit for your accomplishments or your fame.”

获得最高荣誉的Swift也很惊喜。她的专辑在2014年发行,因为时间太晚没有资格参加去年的颁奖典礼,最终被列为今年的参奖作品。她发表了励志获奖感言:“作为第一个两次斩获格莱美年度专辑的女性,我想和年轻的女生说:在人生路上,总有人试图阻止你的成功,或者窃取你的成就和名誉。”

"But if you focus on your work and don’t let those people sidetrack you, someday when you get where you’re going, you’ll look around and you’ll know it was you and the people that love you that put you there. And that will be the greatest feeling in the world."

“但是如果你专注在你的事情上,不受那些人的影响,终有一天你会成功,当你回过头看,你会发现是你自己和爱你的人帮你到达了今天的高度。那是世上最棒的感觉。”

Lamar’s wins included best rap album for To Pimp A Butterfly; best rap song and rap performance for Alright; best rap/sung collaboration and best music video, which he shared with Swift for Bad Blood. Alabama Shakes were triple winners. They collected best alternative music album while their song Don’t Wanna Fight won best rock song and rock performance. The Weeknd also picked up two Grammys for best urban contemporary album and best R&B performance.

Lamar凭借《To Pimp A Butterfly》获得“最佳说唱专辑奖”,凭借《Alright》斩获“最佳说唱歌曲奖”和“最佳说唱歌手奖”,他和Swift合作的《Bad Blood》收获“最佳合作”和“最佳音乐录影带”两项大奖。复古乐团Alabama Shakes是本次格莱美的三重赢家。他们获得“最佳另类音乐专辑奖”,并凭借歌曲《Don’t Wanna Fight》拿到“最佳摇滚歌曲奖”和“最佳摇滚乐队奖”。The Weeknd 获得两项大奖:“最佳当代城市音乐专辑”和“最佳R&B歌手”。

Mark Ronson and Bruno Mars won two awards for their hit Uptown Funk, including record of the year, while Meghan Trainor was named best new artist. British rock band Muse also won best rock album for Drones, and Tony Bennett collected his 18th Grammy for best traditional pop vocal album.

Mark Ronson和“火星哥”Bruno Mars合作的热门歌曲《Uptown Funk》拿到包括“年度制作奖”在内的两项大奖,“美国贾玲”Meghan Trainor获得了“年度新人奖”。英国摇滚乐坛Muse凭借专辑《Drones》获得“最佳摇滚专辑奖”,而Tony Bennett获得“最佳传统流行演唱专辑奖”,这是他的第18座格莱美奖杯。

Justin Bieber also won his first Grammy for his collaboration with Skrillex and Diplo, winning best dance recording for Where Are U Now. Outside the main categories, Amy - Asif Kapadia’s documentary on the life of Amy Winehouse - won the Grammy for best music film.

Justin Bieber也凭借他和Skrillex以及Diplo合作的《Where Are U Now》获得了“最佳舞曲奖”,收获了第一座格莱美奖杯。除了这些主流奖项以外,Asif Kapadia制作的Amy Winehouse纪录片《Amy》获得了“最佳音乐电影奖”。

Swift opened the ceremony with a rendition of her song Out of the Woods and was one of many who performed during the show, along with Lamar, Adele, Ellie Goulding, James Bay and The Weeknd. Adele’s performance was slightly hampered, however, by audio problems which appeared to throw the singer. She later tweeted: "The piano mics fell on to the piano strings, that’s what the guitar sound was. It made it sound out of tune."

Swift带来开场秀,激情演绎了她的歌曲《Out of the Woods》, Lamar, Adele, Ellie Goulding, James Bay 和The Weeknd等也在本次颁奖典礼上有精彩的表现。音响问题轻微地影响了歌手Adele的表现。她之后在推特上说:“钢琴话筒掉在了琴弦上,发出来吉他的声音,所以有些走调了。”

Rihanna had also been due to perform, but pulled out at the last minute on doctor’s orders due to bronchitis. There were also a number of acts who gave tribute performances - Lady Gaga sang a medley of David Bowie songs, Jackson Browne and The Eagles performed in honour of Glenn Frey and Stevie Wonder remembered Earth Wind and Fire’s Maurice White.

Rihanna原本也要表演,但是最终因支气管炎被医生命令取消了演出。还有几位歌手悼念经典人物:Lady Gaga串烧了David Bowie的数首歌曲,老鹰乐队The Eagles缅怀已逝成员Glenn Frey , Stevie Wonder为致敬Earth Wind and Fire演唱了他们的歌曲《Maurice White》 。

Hollywood Vampires - a supergroup made up of stars including Alice Cooper, Johnny Depp and Joe Perry - also performed in tribute of Motorhead’s Lemmy.

由Alice Cooper, Johnny Depp 和Joe Perry组成的超级团体Hollywood Vampires演唱了《Lemmy》致敬“摩托党”。
