    I'm not a fan of some of the names of the departed receiving louder applause than others and some greeted with total silence - that is to say, the amount of applause your life receives being determined by your level of public or industry fame/popularity. People should either clap equally for every name or - more sensibly - shut up and listen to the beautiful in memoriam performance and clap for everyone at the end (which I've seen done at other ceremonies). This is about death, not reading off nominations for some award.

      i get it. however, some people’s time on this earth did, in fact, have more of an impact than others. i get the whole not wanting people to feel left out or being seen as not important, but in terms of impact on music, the names that received the applause were well deserved. it wasn’t just their popularity that earned them the applause, but their impact and the legacy they left behind.

      @@studiokastle I don't think this is necessarily true. It's who THIS particular audience recognizes that get the biggest applause. For example, Marilyn and Alan Bergman wrote many amazing songs that have been sung by some of the greatest voices of all time and are part of the canon of Great American Songbook, but when Marilyn's picture came up, she got next to no applause with this crowd. I don't think she would have gotten the same reaction with a different crowd. Same for James Mtume. I can't even count how many rappers and singers have taken this man's songs to make hits of their own.
      I'm a millennial, but I was fortunate enough that my parents raised me and my brother on all kinds of music of every genre, so I can recognize and appreciate the impact of artists from Marilyn Bergman to Biz Markie to James Mtume to DMX to Stephen Sondheim. They all got applause from me.

Her and Halle Bailey as Ariel are the best castings Disney's ever made, because for one's they focused on the spirit of the characters instead of the physical appearance. She is the perfect Snow White. End of conversation. Maybe you realised how stupid the comment was and deleted it, proud of you.

    2024 watching.. I don't know about you.. But in my decades of watching Grammys, I think this the best In Memoriam production number ever.Literally chills over Sondheim's lyrics and emotional rendition of these 4 exceptional talents.. Great vocals, great music all in one stage. Just perfection!

    Still a bit disappointed that the Grammys did a better tribute to Sondheim’s music than the Tony’s. Great job Grammys.

    I usually don't pay attention to the songs, concentrating instead on the names and pictures, so I'm not too embarrassed that it took numerous viewings to realize the songs being performed for the In Memorium segment where all Stephen Sondheim songs.

    I know this is a tribute to the ones we unfortunately lost for the past year but this was so good and I remember being emotional while watching it on stream so it became my second most favorite performance of that night, right after BTS' Butter performance. Cynthia, Leslie, Ben, and Rachel did well. Love them and rest in peace to those souls who passed away. 🤍🕊

    6:04 - This is one of the most effective "In Memoriam" segments I've ever seen. But a cold wind went through me when the photo of Michael Nesmith of the Monkees appeared and received almost no reaction from the crowd. He was so huge at the time!
