I think part of the reason for the silence was people were waiting to hear Jill say Bonnie's name, which never happened. Bonnie was even waiting to hear her name to make sure she was the winner. Oh, well🤦‍♂️ I'm so happy for Bonnie😍 I am a long-time fan. She is very deserving💖

@@GoodStuffForeverMore I didn’t even realize that, but I just watched it back and saw that she only said the song name, but not the artist. I think everyone is so used to hearing the name, for obvious reasons, come immediately after. They were either waiting respectfully to let her say Bonnie’s name so they didn’t clap over it being read or they were honestly not sure what was said since only the song title was said and not the artist. So, they needed a minute to actually comprehend what she just said. I think Bonnie herself was just shocked and then when she heard her song playing it really hit her. It’s well deserved and she was so genuinely happy 😊

@@Sweetmuffins0018 Totally agree🙌

Her dancing is iconic

I agree. I love how she’s always up dancing and showing support to whoever is performing live. Most of the time she’s the only one in her area that’s standing up and dancing, but she does it anyway. It’s just fun to watch.

Lol class act? What a load of bull

Taylor sold out her Soul to Satan for money.

Please Don't Bring Down Beyoncé Just to Lift Bonnie Up. Them Both are Legends in Their Own Way and Art

@Ric Diaz Amen Brother! She is the Queen of Blues and Rock guitar! She will always hold my heart in her guitar Goddess hands! CSNY, John Prine, John Lee Hooker, BB King, Muddy Waters, Little Feat all the people she's played with will be shining in heaven and a few here on Earth for her win tonight! 💞🎶🎸👑🎉💃🏻🙏 You gave them something to talk about my "Angel from Montgomery"! 🙏💞🎸🎶👑🎉💃🏻🤘

@@KateFenty Bonnie doesn't need anyone to lift her up by putting anyone else down! Bonnie she's a True Guitar Goddess! She is the OG QUEEN of Blues and Rock Guitar plus her voice is smoky deep and identifiable. Beyonce will be blessed if she can still be as relevant and recognized at 52! She and all these young ladies here tonight are standing on the shoulders of the True Giant's the real Rebel Great female Musicians. The OG women who beat this door down so these youngsters could be being considered and Grammy awarded! These girls all owe this chance to be nominated or invited here was because of all the women who came before but never got an award! Goddesses like Marlina Dittrich, Sista Rosetta Tharpe, Billy Holiday, Lena Horn, Bessie Smith, Big Mama Thornton, then Bonnie Raitt, Janis Joplin, The Mama's of the Mama's and Papa's, Grace Slick, Cher, Joni Mitchell, Christine Micfee, Stevie Nicks, Carol King, Aretha Franklin, Etta James, Pointer Sisters, and so many more who've broke into the music scene but RARELY got Grammys and barely got paid much less acknowledge! So now down show respect Cardi-B, Beyonce, Lizzo, HER, Taylor Swift and all these other youngsters need to know Where TF they got a leg up from! R.E.S.P.E.C.T.!!

@@KateFenty Not bringing her down. I use to Love Beyonce. But, the Beehive take it so hard when she loses.

@@katherinehunter9526 the first person did take a jab at Beyonce tho by saying Bonnie doesn’t need to Be naked on a horse!!! They could have just said Bonnie was an amazing artist with just her guitar and didn’t single anyone else out…. She is a legend and deserves to be recognized Forsure…. But also some of these other artists are as well… Some people will be mad that they faves didn’t win but it’s ok it happens! Everyone was celebrated lasted night and we should just be happy and try to spread more love and positivity…

Did you sit down and listen, and read the Lyrics? Easy on my is pretty, but for “song of the year” not record, not album, just the song writing none of them compare to “Just like that”.

Yes not to mention it's rude. Bonnie is the better musician and guitarist!👑🎸🎶💞 Taylor Swift is a business woman!

@@katherinehunter9526 omg. do some research before spouting bs online. taylor is widely considered the songwriter of her generation & one of the best by critics, those whose opinion actually matters. Taylor was one of the very first clapping for Bonnie as well as every other winner that night & literally supports all artists, even those under the same award category. All Too Well 10mv is considered Taylor's magnum opus by many (false, she has many songs that are better) & was very much deserving of the award, yet she immediately clapped for Bonnie & cheered her on as she does everytime she loses. Taylor's been way too respectful to new/old peers since the start & makes too beautiful of art to be dissed like that.

@@katherinehunter9526 just because she's old doesn't mean she's better that old lady herself mentioned she doesn't write her songs usually in her own speech lol Grammys doing charity to her

I think it’s shocking to most of the younger fans who aren’t aware of her or her music, but also to a lot of the artists at the awards because it was unexpected. It wasn’t unexpected because she’s not talented and didn’t deserve it. It’s because we had been hearing so much talk about it almost definitely going to Beyoncé or Taylor Swift. I can’t stand when there’s constant speculation to the point of assumption, but I do love when a dark horse or unexpected nomination takes the win and this is coming from a Swiftie. It was well deserved and I’m sure the other nominees were just as happy for her 😊

Well said 👍

AMEN...👏👏

Amen! True Goddess of the Blues and Rock guitar! And her voice!🎉 So proud to see her receive this Award! Sorry she didn't think she would win! Grateful she did! 💞🎸🎶👑🎉🤘

Yes our "Angel from Montgomery", really gave them "Something to talk about", tonight! Love Bonnie Raitt and her Blues and Rock guitar playing not to mention that voice! Haunting and comforting all at the same time.. She truly is a Guitar Giant and a Gracious Goddess! 💃🏻💞🎸🎶👑🤘🎉

Why? She's not God. She's just another music artist like others

@@SteadyNUnremitting for starters Bonnie gigged for small audiences for YEARS. Beyonce and Taylor both benefited from skyrocketing promotion and cross promotion in other fields of endeavor. Bonnie taught HERSELF to play slide guitar and immediately won the admiration of every big name in the field. That's just for starters. I'm not sure you why you wish her fans didn't admire her but you'd fare well to listen to Nick of Time which is one of precious few

It’s very sad. I’m glad Bonnie won. My fav artist has 3 Grammys and I think she is underrated. I had no clue that B has 32!

Periodt

I have no idea what sentiment you're referencing. Seems no one on KZfaq is ageist

@@okayimbackwhateverjones I have definitely seen some younger Stans out here (not on this video in particular but you get the point), and they don’t seem the most proper out of the bunch, lemme tell you that 😂

And I didn't mean heart moving as a pun but there you go

Dr. Biden*

unfortunately this was rumored to largely be the basis of all too well being snubbed. the voters (without the album & songs in competition even existing yet) assumed anti-hero/midnights were a shoe in for next year. she's been nominated for soty SIX times with no wins because "its taylor, she'll win next year for ____" blank space was deserving, lover was v deserving, cardigan not winning was wild, but all too well (what the grammys themselves called her magnum opus) not winning is just insane. now for midnights award season sos will take aoty, flowers may take roty, & maybe anti-hero can still win soty if they don't say "ShElL gEt It NeXt YeAr FoR DeAr JoHn 20 MiNuTe VeRsIoN"
