Who won Record of the Year at the 60th Annual Grammy Awards?

Bruno Mars won Record of the Year at the 60th Annual Grammy Awards for “24K Magic.” The ceremony took place on January 28, 2018, at Madison Square Garden in New York City.

The award recognized the complete recorded performance, including the singing, musicianship, production, engineering, and mixing—not just the songwriting. Mars also won Album of the Year for 24K Magic and Song of the Year for “That’s What I Like,” making him the night’s dominant winner.

A common mix-up is confusing Record of the Year with Song of the Year. Record of the Year honors the recording and its performance, while Song of the Year honors the songwriters. Another frequent mistake is choosing Kendrick Lamar, Jay-Z, or Childish Gambino, all prominent nominees in the category.
