The 62nd Grammy Awards saw the best of the music industry flock to the STAPLES Centre in L.A. to celebrate their achievements over the past year, and for some, over their whole careers. We saw some of the young up-and-comers take away awards for the first time, as well as some old favourites that keep giving us the good stuff. Here's what you missed:
