Grammy 2011 belonged to Lady Antebellum

When my kids were living at home, the house reverberated with the sound of their music and willingly or unwillingly I was kept abreast of the latest hits. But now they have moved out and the only way I keep in touch with the new hits is by watching the Grammy’s.

I loved the song ‘Need you now’ by Lady Antebellum. It has beautiful words and a haunting melody. I have heard this song before but became a fan only after listening to it on the big night. Now I find that I can’t get this song out of my mind and listen to it at every opportunity.

This country group was formed in Nashville Tennessee in 2006. It has three members- Hillary Scott, Dave Haywood and Charles Kelley.

 I loved watching the trio perform ‘Need you now’ on the Grammy stage. There were no gimmicks, no drama- Just three talented singers, singing a beautiful song with great feeling.

Lady Antebellum was the big winner of the Grammy’s this year. The group won an impressive five out of the six awards they were nominated for.

They won Record of the Year, Song of the Year, Best Country Performance By a Duo Or Group, Best Country Song, and Best Country Album.

 They deserved every award they got and my only disappointment was that they did not bag Album of the year.
