The 58th Grammy Awards came and went with much anticipation and delivered much to the expectations of many. Megan Trainor got the Best New Artist award; Lady Gaga gave a heartfelt tribute to the late David Bowie and Adele's performance became the subject of much speculation on what really happened.
Viewers of the one of the biggest music awards show noticed that something was off on parts of her rendition of "All I Ask."
According to The Rolling Stone (site source), "The '25' singer fought against a steely, stringent acoustic guitar towards the beginning and later fell flat as she strove towards some of the song's most towering notes. Despite the issues, Adele delivered the track with quintessential vigor, bathed in a shimmering spotlight."
"All I Ask" is part of Adele's "25" album which broke record sales last year. Ushered by the smash hit single "Hello," the album became one of the biggest records of 2015 in terms of sales. According to NPR, "Over 7.4 million units of 25 were sold during the last six weeks of the year - it was easily the top-selling digital and physical album of 2015.'25' accounted for over 3 percent of every single album sold during 2015 and a whopping 16 percent of the albums sold between Nov. 20 and Dec. 31."
The song became one of the biggest songs of 2015 that it practically ushered tons of parodies just SNL made with Matthew McConaughey, according to Hollywood Life.
It should be noted that even though Adele was part of the 58th Grammy Awards, she was not nominated to any category.
ET Online reports, "She's simply not eligible...neither Adele's single 'Hello' nor her album were released in that time frame, having hit the airwaves in late October and mid-November respectively." Fans will just have to wait for next year to hear her name nominated for the Grammy's.
