I will never understand why every time PTX performs live there is always a full band playing behind them. They are an acapella group. They ARE the instruments.

Every time I have seen them on award shows it has been part of an ensemble performance with non-accapella groups. I think they were just thrilled to perform with artists like Shiela E, which means 1 on 1 and practice time and the exposure.

@@dannyboy3238nope. They never use auto tune unless the song they are covering use it. Overall they have never use autogenerate doing studio recording and live recording/performance. If you disagree then that your opinion that you think that they’re using auto tune or some shit.

This time I can understand it. They aren’t performing by themselves. If it was just PTX then I agree they wouldn’t need a band.

That's a great opening. I love how they showcased awesome artists, nominated from so many different genres, coming together live to bring the house down.

I agree. It was fun, varied and they all seemed like they had fun, enjoying watching each others perform.

That opening number was great! Pentatonix is always gonna bring it and it was so much fun seeing so many genuine musicians on stage looking like they were having so much fun and hyping each other up. That rocked!

I love that Larkin Poe are fianlly getting their due! Self produced with no major lable support makes their fierce independence all the more impressive! Their musical power and genuine "Blood Harmony" are evident in all their performances, whether original or their stripped down covers. Their future's so bright... Gotta wear shades!😎

Being from Minneapolis where Prince is from I loved this!!! So cool seeing PTX singing a Prince song💜💜💜

So proud of them for getting this spot. Super deserved.

Thanks for putting it up Sarah, it was great! I wasn't sure what time the show started over here (UK) and I missed the start.

Thanks for uploading!

OMG Sheila E. put them tears in my eyes. So emotional.

That was great! Thanks for sharing!!

The best opening ever! Many great artists at the same time!❤❤

Nice format! Matt and Kirstin didn't even flinch when the high hat was tipped over towards them. I wonder how many times they rehearsed that. 😄

Spectacular!

Thank you for putting this up! You know, I've been wondering about next award season. This year's highlighted holiday album songs - Please Santa Please, Kiss from a Rose, Pure Imagination/Christmastime Is Here, and O Holy Night - are as strong a set as they've ever put out, IMO. But they're tied to that huge block of re-released material. It's a little awkward and a little sad, in terms of award nominations.

The joy of his music and the pain of his too soon departure…

Larkin Poe rocked it🎸

Sheila E!!!!

Larkin Poe are awesome! Do yourselves a favor and look up their cover of In the Air Tonight by Phil Collins. Mind blowing! PTX awesome, as always! They put on a great concert! Jordan sounds absolutely amazing!! ❤

SHE-LA! E. Baby. Crushed it.

Larkin Poe....kick ass musicians who have over a half dozen albums of ORIGINAL material, nominated for (and WINNING) a Grammy.... are relegated to sharing a stage to perform a cover song.

PTX great opening

I feel like whoever was in charge of the mix should be working on their resume...

Man, best!!! Intro!!!

Prince would have been offended at being called “Almighty “.

My thoughts exactly

For me PTX held this all together into a comprehensive whole, which is no mean deal )

💜

And you would think that someone saying rhymes at the Grammy would not be someone better suited for a Ebonics commercial.

Is there any footage of them on the red carpet? I watch some of the red carpet but didn’t see them. Maybe because they were the first performers they didn’t.

❤🌹❤️

Sure didn't see that one coming! Prince, Penta, Poe?? And then they toss in E??? wow!!!

I just go to Larkin Poe on KZread for the Lo-Fi folky songs. She's also the loudest singer in music, but the idea that they are the blues or something? That's truly evil...

It's like sing 2 all over again

This was very similar to what Kelly Clarkson did with PTX & Sheila E. a few years ago at the billboard awards I believe. It was good but it is a very similar concept other than they had a few more artists & a different song this time.

PTX are 5 Star 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Was that actually Kevin? i miss his hair!

My dream is to see Gabriel Henrique singing on this stage. #gabrielhenrique

😮

...and THAT my friends is why the Grammys are the only awards show worth watching!

Sheila E. still got it.

No Revolution?

thank you! This was however pretty awful. NOT PTX but it sounded off key like the music and those girls singing were in different keys for a while there. i never enjoy it when these shows put a band behind ptx so they should have let them do their own song or something as this did not show any of the groups in a good light. the end sounds ok when people aren't doing too much singing.

Hot. Damn. Mess. Can’t believe Sheila E participated in this.

What an insult too Prince sounds horrible

Who allowed them to do this to a Prince song? WTF?

Whoever dressed Larkin Poe should be fired.

Terrible audio mix. House band drowning everybody out.
