Grammys 2017: Watch Adele cover George Michael’s ‘Fastlove’

After opening the show with Hello, Adele took the Grammys stage again to pay tribute to George Michael.

Performing a new arrangement of Michael’s 1996 single Fastlove, Adele cut the performance early first time round, asking to restart and apologising the producers and the audience. She told the crowd she had to “do it right for him”.

Second time round, the performance ran through and Adele performed a stripped-back, string-led version of the track in front of a montage of footage of George Michael.
