U2

In 2000, just a year before their iconic performance of "Beautiful Day" at the Grammy Awards, U2 released their album "All That You Can't Leave Behind." This album marked a significant turning point for the band, establishing a renewed sound and reaching new heights in their career. "Beautiful Day," the lead single from this album, resonated worldwide with its uplifting lyrics and infectious melody, both of which the Grammy stage showcased brilliantly in 2001. Notably, this performance came at a time when U2 was reclaiming their position in the rock hierarchy after some years of experimentation. By 2001, the band had not only garnered a massive fanbase but also won several Grammy awards, cementing their legacy as one of music's most influential acts.
