What have been your favourite ever grammy performances?

Mine are:

Eminem and Elton - Stan

Alanis Morissette - You Oughta Know
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7EPLb4KYpck

Mary J Blige - No More Drama (proving she is a better vocalist than Beyonce and Alicia Keys imo)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a_LSH...eature=related

MIA, TI, Kanye, Lil Wayne and Jay Z - Swagga Like Us (not bad seeing as MIA was nine months pregnant and performing on her due date)
http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x8b...-like-us_music

I'll post more if I think of them

Love how it changes to Death Letter halfway through, great energy in this performance.

Madonna AND Gorillaz!(2006) just love it, so very clever it had not only Gorillaz in their first televised live set but then a computerized Madonna to make it more intricate and the WHAM Hung Up! just gets me up into a full on groove, it's an amazing set! and an amazing era too.

AMAZING!
Madonna's 1999 performance of Nothing Really Matters was really great also considering it had last minute planning with that eerie setting and Geisha theme which i love.

i also love Britney's 2000 performance of From The Bottom of My Broken Heart/Baby One More Time with a fantasy like set with amazing scenery and costumes and her beautiful voice, then a very Wizard of Oz type army setting very good!

Dixie Chicks-Not Ready To Make Nice was the first thing that sprung to mind. I more often remember VMA performances than Grammy.

I don't usually watch the Grammys but I've seen Eminem and Elton John sing Stan which was amazing.

Beyonces performance of 'If I Were a Boy/You Oughta Know' was kick ass

Mine has to be Mariah's in 1991 with vision of love and in 2006 when she sang we belong together/Fly like a bird.

Lady Gaga & Elton John - Poker Face/Speechless/Your Song Not her best, but it's still great. She looks so happy at the end.

Christina Aguilera - Mans World Soul power.

Christina Aguilera, Pink, Lil Kim, Mya, Missy Elliot, Patti Labelle - Lady Marmalade Bit sloppy in places though, the sound especially and Patti's wardrobe malfunction.

Alanis Morisette - You Oughta Know Flawless vocal performance.

I love the visuals of Pink's 2010 performance. If the song itself matched up to it, then it would have been such an epic performance.

The Dixie Chick's one is great and an important one too because of all the drama that they'd been having.

My personal favourite would be American Idiot by Green Day. I just think they totally rocked it! I believe it was rated the best Grammy Moment too, or something similar?

It was so incredible because you could see how much she was enjoying it!
