Ok have to say I've missed a big chunk of the Grammys as I was watching American Idol (why did they have to start at the same time - bad planning I think!!!)


So for the full list of winners you can go to the following link The Grammys, but here is a round up of what happened from Yahoo news.


Mariah Carey is warbling/singing something (I don't really like her I have to admit), but at least she is wearing something the doesn't look in danger of falling off!!!


U2's success at the Grammy awards, where they walked off with five gongs, left a host of stars disappointed, although British bands the Chemical Brothers and Gorillaz were also celebrating.


The Irish rockers upstaged Mariah Carey, who with eight nominations had been billed of the comeback star of the night, but only picked up three awards in the end.


The Chemical Brothers led the British winners, picking up the best dance recording award for 'Galvanize' and best electronic/dance album for 'Push The Button'.


Cartoon band, Gorillaz, headed by Damon Albarn, won best vocal pop collaboration for their single 'Feel Good Inc', featuring De La Soul.


But Sir Paul McCartney, who had been nominated in three categories, went home empty-handed despite a rousing rendition of the Beatles' Helter Skelter, his first at the Grammys.


Gorillaz, who kicked off the 48th annual awards in Los Angeles with a "performance" with Madonna, lost out in three categories. The leotard-clad 47-year-old joined the characters on stage for Feel Good Inc, which was mixed into her hit 'Hung Up'.


U2's clutch of awards also left Coldplay disappointed. They had been nominated in the rock album, rock song and rock performance categories, but were pipped at the post by the Irishmen every time.


And the Chemical Brothers' success came at the expense of fellow Brit Fatboy Slim. Keane, Rod Stewart, Eric Clapton, Seal and Franz Ferdinand also failed to win awards.


David Bowie and Cream were honoured with lifetime achievement awards and there was a best musical show album gong for Monty Python's Spamalot.


Carey ended her 16-year Grammy drought, but her three awards - including best contemporary R&B album for 'The Emancipation of Mimi' - were all in the pre-telecast ceremony, meaning viewers saw her perform but never heard from her.


The surprise of the show was the appearance of Sly Stone, the mercurial, psychedelic pioneer who disappeared from the music scene decades ago and had not performed in public since 1993. Near the end of an all-star tribute, Stone, 61, emerged sporting a pale Mohawk and made his way through one of his biggest smashes, 'I Want To Take You Higher'.
