What Is the Grammy Song of the Year?
The Grammy Award for Song of the Year honors the songwriter(s) of a single track, recognizing musical and lyrical achievement. Unlike Record of the Year, it focuses on composition rather than performance or production. The award is a central part of the annual Grammy Awards ceremony.
