Carlos Vives and Shakira found massive success with the release of "La Bicicleta" in 2016. The duet went No. 1 in more than 10 countries, including the U.S. — on three separate charts — and, perhaps even more meaningfully, in their mutual home country of Colombia.

The song is the kind of uptempo, hip-swaying summertime anthem that fans have come to know and love from both artists, but it has an extra layer of personal meaning for both artists. They co-wrote the song (with Andrés Castro), inspired by special personal memories of their respective childhoods in Colombia. 

In this episode of GRAMMY Rewind, let's turn back the clock to the 17th Latin GRAMMY Awards in late 2016, where "La Bicicleta" won two coveted awards: Song Of The Year and Record Of The Year. In his acceptance speech for the latter, Vives made sure everyone watching knew how special Colombian culture is to the song — and to him.

"I want to dedicate it especially to something that is the pride of all Colombians," he said. "And that is to our cyclists, our cyclists, our cross bike riders. Our cycling culture in Colombia. Humble people, from our humblest towns, who provide a lot of glory to our country." (It was a fitting dedication, as "La Bicicleta" translates to "The Bike.")

Though Shakira wasn't in attendance, Vives brought Castro and their engineer, Luis Barrera Jr, on stage with him, and he made sure to deliver his heartfelt thanks to everyone involved with the song.

2022 Latin GRAMMYs Hosts Announced: Luis Fonsi, Laura Pausini, Thalía & More

When Dolly Parton, flanked by Brad Paisley, handed Faith Hill her GRAMMY for Best Country Album in 2001 — for her classic 1999 album Breathe — it felt like a passing of the torch.*

The first words out of an awestruck Hill's mouth, to Parton: "Wow! And coming from you, thank you so much. I just admire you so much."

Hill went on to deliver a heartfelt speech, in which she thanked her parents for helping facilitate her music dreams and expressed how long and hard her journey to the GRAMMYs stage was.

Breathe helped Hill take home three GRAMMYs that night — the others being Best Female Country Vocal Performance ("Breathe") and Best Country Collaboration With Vocals ("Let's Make Love," with three-time GRAMMY-winning husband Tim McGraw.)

LeAnn Rimes On New Album God's Work, Major-Label Debut Blue & Choosing Joy 25 Years Into Her Career: "I Think It Was My Rebellion"

This year, Daft Punk is celebrating their 20th anniversary. Their groundbreaking album Random Access Memories also celebrates a milestone anniversary in 2023, turning 10 on May 17.

In this episode of GRAMMY Rewind, we turn back the clock to 2014, when Daft Punk won the prestigious Album of the Year award for Random Access Memories. Notorious for their silent, faceless appearances, musical legend Paul Williams accepted the duo's award while they stood back.

"Back when I was drinking and using, I used to imagine things that weren't there that were frightening. Then, I got sober, and two robots called me and asked me to make an album," Williams joked at the beginning of the speech.

"I just got a message from the robots, and what they wanted me to say is that as elegant and as classy as the GRAMMY has ever been is the moment when we saw those wonderful marriages," Williams said, referring to Macklemore's revolutionary performance of "Same Love" at the same ceremony. "'Same Love' is fantastic, and it was the height of fairness and the power of love for all people at any time, in any combination."

Williams went on to praise Daft Punk's generous spirit, their fellow collaborators, and the love that went into making the album.

After having a whirlwind year thanks to her runaway hit "I Try," Macy Gray celebrated yet another accomplishment thanks to the ubiquitous jam: her first GRAMMY.

In this episode of GRAMMY Rewind, we flashback to the evening Gray won the Best Female Pop Vocal Performance award for her chart-topping single, "I Try." Though her acceptance speech was short and sweet, she made sure the people who got her there — starting off with her biggest inspirations.  

"I just want to thank all of my mentors, like Prince, Chaka Khan, Stevie Wonder, Sly Stone," Gray said at the start of her speech. She went on to praise the hip-hop community, her band and her family.

"I'm really flattered by all of you who voted for me. Thanks!" Gray exclaimed as she made her way off the stage.

Gray also scored Record of the Year and Song of the Year nominations for "I Try" that year. The year prior, she was up for Best Female R&B Vocal Performance for "Do Something" as well as the coveted Best New Artist.

Feist On Her New Album 'Multitudes,' Instinctual Writing & The Innate Integrity Of A Song

The world first fell in love with Erykah Badu in 1997, when she released her debut studio album, Baduizm. Helmed by hits "On & On," "Next Lifetime" and "Appletree," Badu skyrocketed to stardom as Baduizm made its way to the top of the charts — and helped her snag four GRAMMY nominations at the 1998 GRAMMYs, including Best New Artist.

In this episode of GRAMMY Rewind, we revisit one of Badu's two wins from that night, when Baduizm won Best R&B Album. (Badu also won Best Female R&B Vocal Performance for "On & On.")

"Woo!" Badu cheered at the start of her acceptance speech. "I represent the artists who are often unheard, and this is for us."

Badu went on to praise her "dream team" at her record label, Kedar Entertainment, her family, and the people who assisted in the making of Baduizm — including the two artists who influenced the album, George Clinton and Stevie Wonder.

Before heading off the stage, she closed out her speech by acknowledging two more special people in her life: God and her fans. "I would like to thank the creator for giving me this gift. I thank my fans. Peace!" Badu said.
