GRAMMY Rewind: Watch An Emotional Luis Fonsi Win Record Of The Year And Thank Daddy Yankee For "Despacito" In 2017

Puerto Rican singer Luis Fonsi wins one of his four Latin GRAMMYs of the night for his record-breaking 2017 single "Despacito" in the latest episode of GRAMMY Rewind

Nov 5, 2021 - 10:07 am

If there's a world record involving the words "music" and "streaming," chances are Luis Fonsi broke it in 2017 with "Despacito."

"Despacito" earned the Puerto Rican singer seven world records, the most-viewed YouTube video of all time and a spot on Rolling Stone's "100 Greatest Songs of the Century So Far." However, none of those accolades seemed to numb Fonsi when accepting the Latin GRAMMY for Record of the Year in 2017.

Watch below to see the five-time Latin GRAMMY winner try to hold in his emotions while sending thanks to everyone from Daddy Yankee to his home country of Puerto Rico.

On top of Record of The Year, "Despacito" pushed Fonsi to three additional Latin GRAMMY Awards in 2017: Best Short Form Music Video, Best Urban/Fusion Performance and Song Of The Year. The global chart-topping single also broke several Guinness World Records, including the first YouTube video to receive five billion views and the most-streamed track worldwide.

Fonsi would later place two versions of "Despacito", the original with Daddy Yankee and the remix with Justin Bieber, on his GRAMMY-nominated 2019 album, Vida.

And make sure to watch the Biggest Night in Latin Music later this month: The 2021 Latin GRAMMYs Awards, officially known as the 22nd Latin GRAMMY Awards, take place Thursday, Nov. 18.

The latest episode of GRAMMY Rewind travels back to the 6th Latin GRAMMY Awards in 2005 to celebrate 25-time Latin GRAMMY winner Juan Luis Guerra's Latin GRAMMY win for Best Tropical Song for "Las Avispas"

Nov 21, 2021 - 12:49 pm

Dominican musician and Latin music icon Juan Luis Guerra has won multiple Latin GRAMMYs in each of the last three decades, including his four recent wins at the 2021 Latin GRAMMYs. As if three decades of golden gramophones weren't enough, Guerra's streak further stretches across four consecutive decades when counting his multiple GRAMMYs, starting with his first-ever GRAMMY win, for Best Tropical Latin Album for Bachata Rosa, at the 34th GRAMMY Awards in 1992.

The latest episode of GRAMMY Rewind travels back in time to Guerra's early days to revisit his Latin GRAMMY win for Best Tropical Song for "Las Avispas" at the 6th Latin GRAMMY Awards in 2005. Watch below.

Watch Juan Luis Guerra Win Latin GRAMMY In 2005

"Las Avispas" was featured on Guerra's 2004 album, Para Ti. The project, which earned the singer/composer a Latin GRAMMY Award for Best Christian Album (Spanish Language) that same night, served as the predecessor to Guerra's 2007 album, La Llave de Mi Corazón, which won six Latin GRAMMYs, including Album Of The Year, at the 8th Latin GRAMMY Awards in 2007 as well as the GRAMMY for Best Tropical Latin Album at the 50th GRAMMY Awards in 2008.

Fast-forward to today, and Guerra is still at the center of the Biggest Night in Latin Music. The 25-time Latin GRAMMY winner added four more Latin GRAMMYs to his name at the 22nd Latin GRAMMYs, taking home awards for Best Traditional Pop Vocal Album, Best Tropical Song, Best Arrangement, and Best Long Form Music Video.

Relive Juan Luis Guerra's magical Latin GRAMMY moment above and check down below for more episodes of GRAMMY Rewind.

"Three years ago, I was lost completely in Los Angeles," Juanes says at the top of his acceptance speech for Album of the Year at the 4th Annual Latin GRAMMY Awards.

In the newest episode of GRAMMY Rewind, travel back to the year 2000 to revisit Mexican singer Alejandro Fernandez's first Latin GRAMMY win.

If Alejandro Fernandez's loosened tie and unbuttoned collar signaled a state of worried anticipation, the then-26-year-old Mexican singer didn't show it once he took the stage.

Fernandez's win for Best Ranchero Performance for "Mi Verdad" at the 2000 Latin GRAMMY Awards was his first Latin GRAMMY, but he handled his acceptance speech like a professional. Fernandez calmly thanked everyone involved, from his fans to his family to his country.

Watch below to see Fernandez maintain his equilibrium under pressure and proudly proclaim "Viva Mexico!" in the newest edition of GRAMMY Rewind.

"Mi Verdad" was the title track from Fernandez's 1995 album. Other popular tracks on the album include love songs like "Loco", "Si He Sabido Amor" and "Nadie Simplemente Nadie".

Fernandez is the son of three-time GRAMMY-winner Vicente Fernandez, aka "El Rey de la Música Ranchera" ("The King of Ranchera Music"). But with four GRAMMY nominations and two Latin GRAMMY wins under his belt, Alejandro is a legend in his own right.

And make sure to watch the Biggest Night in Latin Music: The 2021 Latin GRAMMYs Awards, officially known as the 22nd Latin GRAMMY Awards, take place Thursday, Nov. 18.

In the latest episode of GRAMMY Rewind, watch Alejandro Sanz win the Latin GRAMMY for Record Of The Year for "Tu No Tienes Alma" at the 6th Latin GRAMMY Awards in 2005

Few people can boast of a hot streak quite as scorching as Alejandro Sanz, who won five of the first six Latin GRAMMYs for Record Of The Year.

The Spanish balladeer had already cemented his legendary career by the ceremony's launch in 2000, and would go on to win 16 more Latin GRAMMYs and four GRAMMYs — but his run of gold statues at the turn of the century remains a highlight of Latin GRAMMYs history.

Even Sanz seems amazed at his own run of good fortune, holding his face in his palms before heading to the stage to accept the Latin GRAMMY for Record Of The Year for "Tu No Tienes Alma" in 2005.

Watch Alejandro Sanz Win Latin GRAMMY In 2005

"I'm very ashamed to collect this award because all those that were nominated and the many who aren't nominated deserve it more than I do," Sanz says in near disbelief. "But I want to dedicate it precisely to them."

See above for the entirety of Sanz's humble, charming acceptance speech in the newest episode of GRAMMY Rewind. If you're looking for more inspiring moments, click here to enjoy more episodes of the throwback video series. 

And make sure to watch the Biggest Night in Latin Music: The 2021 Latin GRAMMYs Awards, officially known as the 22nd Latin GRAMMY Awards, take place Thursday, Nov. 18.
