The 2015 Grammys got taken to church and were put under a spell, all in a matter of minutes. Tonight (Feb. 8), Grammy-nominated performers Hozier and Annie Lennox teamed up for a joint performance of their burning hits "Take Me to Church" and "I Put a Spell on You," all in a matter of some of the hardest-hitting moments in the CBS broadcast.
The performance opened up with Hozier solo. The Irish singer-songwriter, dressed all in black, gave a strong and steady performance of his signature hit "Take Me to Church," but it wasn't until Lennox hit the stage that the performance really got turned up to 11.
At first, Lennox joined Hozier on "Church," giving 110 percent and shaking with pure energy and gusto.
Soon, though, Lennox was all about stealing the show. The track transitioned to her Nostalgia single "I Put a Spell on You," and then Hozier faded into the background and Lennox stole the show. As a seasoned performer, this should have been no surprise, but she was truly mesmerizing, casting a spell on all who watched, giving one of the best performances of a stacked night.

Hozier is not just a performer at the Grammys this year. He's also up against Taylor Swift, Meghan Trainor, Sia and Sam Smith for Song of the Year for his track "Take Me to Church." Lennox was also a nominee tonight. Her album Nostalgia was nominated for Best Traditional Pop Vocal Album, though she lost to Tony Bennett and Lady Gaga's Cheek to Cheek.
Hozier and Lennox were just the latest performers in the midst of a stacked Grammys lineup. They were joined by AC/DC, Ariana Grande, Tom Jones & Jessie J, Miranda Lambert, Madonna, Kanye West, Adam Levine & Gwen Stefani, Ed Sheeran and more.
