It was music biggest nights on Sunday and even though there was plenty of attention around Adele and her return to the stage, there was a lot of focus placed on the passing of Whitney Houston on Friday night. The night started with a prayer for the late singer which was a touching symbol of everyones love and respect for the late artist. The evening went on with great performances from many of the nominated artists like Rihanna, Coldplay, Maroon 5 and many others. Unfortunately there were a few issues during the ceremony. Jason Aldean's microphone stopped working towards the end of his performance and Adele had a little "Mucus" slip while giving her acceptance speech. All in all it was a success and there were a lot of happy artist walking home with a trophy in hand. See who the big winners were at the 2012 Grammy's.
