Every performance at the 2024 Grammy Awards, ranked from worst to best

The 66^th Grammy Awards were filled with drama, emotion, and plenty of surprises—and that was just during the star-studded performances that made up the bulk of the 3.5-hour telecast. Music’s biggest night delivered its share of hits—including a long-overdue debut appearance by the legendary Joni Mitchell, and a strong opening number by Dua Lipa—along with a handful of misses. We’ve ranked every performance, from U2’s remote appearance from the Sphere in Las Vegas to a lengthy multi-part In Memoriam segment that utilized the likes of Stevie Wonder, Annie Lennox, and Jon Batiste. Read on to see how the stars stacked up on Sunday night.
