Which Silk Sonic song won Record of the Year at the 2022 Grammys?

Silk Sonic’s “Leave the Door Open” won Record of the Year at the 2022 Grammys.

The award recognized the recording by Silk Sonic, the duo formed by Bruno Mars and Anderson .Paak. “Leave the Door Open” was their debut single, released in March 2021, and its polished blend of soul, funk, and romantic vocal harmonies quickly became the project’s signature hit. The song also won Song of the Year at the same ceremony.

Listeners sometimes confuse Record of the Year with Song of the Year. Record of the Year honors the overall recorded performance and production, while Song of the Year primarily recognizes songwriting. Silk Sonic won both categories with the same song. The track topped the Billboard Hot 100 and helped establish the retro-soul style that defined An Evening with Silk Sonic, their debut album.
