This is the song Heart is a Drum from Beck's new album Morning Phase.
There was drama at the Grammys, which I no longer watch because of the coarse behavior, the ugly outfits, the juvenile performers, and the unmusical music. And sure enough, the untalented, aggressive, entitlement-fed black rap performer Kanye West hijacked Beck as he was receiving Best Artist award.
Everyone thought it was a joke, including his pathetic wife, Kim Kardashian, who is part of the Kardashian enterprise which puts on a "reality" show on television. Her mother was also married to Bruce Jenner, the now freaky creature who decided to become "female."
Such is the level of our artists these days.
I've posted above the song which Beck sang at the Grammys, Heart is a Drum, from his deserved win, Album of the Year, Morning Phase.
It is a textured, layered piece, which reminds me a little of the Simon and Garfunkel rendition of the English folk song Are You Going to Scarborough Fair.

Below is Beck performing Heart is a Drum with Chris Martin, of the group Coldplay, at the Grammys. Perhaps they are the next Simon and Garfunckel?

And here is Beck startled as West moves on stage, interrupting his Grammy acceptance.
"This is NOT a Joke!!!!!!!"
And here is West declaring he was very serious about jumping on the stage to interrupt Beck. BEYONCE WAS THE TRUE WINNER! West did the same thing in 2009 when Taylor Swift won Best Female Video at the Video Music Awards. That true winner, Beyonce, was robbed of her prize!
Such is the aggression of anti-white blacks, who declare their own standards and we better agree, or else.
Kim Kardashian, who was next to West, is realizing what she's in for with her life with West, whom she married in 2014. Below is her startled expression at West's tirade.

Below is how Beyonce ended her performance at the Grammys with the now much referenced but false narrative "Hands Up, Don't Shoot" of the Ferguson shooting. Several other black performers also did the same "hands up" motion at the end of their performances. Pharrell Williams went one step further and added "hoodies" on his multicultral/multiethnic/multigendre background performers. We are ALL Michael Brown, and Trayvon Martin.

Here (youtube) is Beyonce's rendition.
Pharrell: Hands Up Don't Shoot in Hoodies as I Wear My Monkey Suit
There is a message Pharrell is trying to convey, I guess:
- He's an organ monkeyAnother idiot on stage.
- He's NOT a monkey
- This is a joke
- This is NOT a joke
- White people think we're monkeys
- Let's play at monkeys
The song Take My Hand, Precious Lord is from the 2014 movie Selma, which is based on the 1965 Selma to Montgomery voting rights marches. It was performed in the film by another singer.
Selma is a gospel song written by Rev. Thomas A. Dorsey in 1956 (a black man), but performed with genuine spirituality by a white performer, Tennessee Ernie Ford, who sang in the "country and Western, pop and gospel musical genres."
Below is Tennessee Ernie Ford's rendition, with a full, white, choir which he sang in 1965, right in the middle of the civil rights era.

So what do Beyonce, Pharrell, Kanye and all those spoilt, contemporary blacks think about this? I assume Beyonce has seen it, given the close resemblance of her big Grammys choir to Ford's original. She is, then, a great hypocrite.
Beyonce is no doubt a talented singer and songwriter, but her insistence on the riffs and improvisations (known as melisma [pdf article]), overloads and drowns the melody. The Grammy judges made the right call, if only for her and other blacks to listen to Beck's album, in some moment of curiosity and humility, and learn from it.
