So the biggest night is British music took place this week, The Brit Awards. So tonight’s show was a reminder or a catch up (for those of you who missed it) on the winners, nominees and performers.
We started of the show just as The Brits did, with a track by British Group winners Coldpay, Adventure of a Lifetime. Other performances included Little Mix singing and dancing to Black Magic, The Weeknd with The Hills and Justin Beiber’s performance was on fire (the effects on the stage) as he was joined by James Bay who had his own time in the spotlight as he sang Hold Back The River. Jess Glynne performed a melody of her songs, Drake surprised the crowd by joining Rihanna during their collaboration Work, Lorde paid tribute to David Bowie performing Life on Mars with his band while Adele ended the night singing her new single When We Were Young.
