” Get Lucky ” scores record of the year Grammy

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Daft Punk's infectiously catchy song "Get Lucky" is the Grammy Awards' record of the year.

The mask-wearing electronic music pioneers Thomas Bangalter and Guy-Manuel De Homem-Christo from France accepted the award with singer Pharrell and collaborator Nile Rodgers in tow.

"Get Lucky" was one of the year's biggest hits and spearheaded Daft Punk's "Random Access Memories," which also won best album of the year and best dance/electronica album.

The award for song of the year went to precocious New Zealand teenager Lorde for her inescapable anti-swag anthem "Royals."

The show also featured a live performance by surviving Beatles Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr.  McCartney also took home the best rock song Grammy, shared with Dave Grohl, Krist Novoselic and Pat Smear, for "Cut Me Some Slack."

The Minnesota Orchestra has won its first Grammy for best orchestral performance. The award was for "Sibelius: Symphonies Nos. 1 & 4" that were recorded in 2012.

The orchestra ended a long lockout on Jan. 14. Conductor Osmo Vanska resigned as music director in October after union talks stalled.

Principal cellist Tony Ross issued a statement Sunday on behalf of the musician's union, saying it needs Vanska to return and "carry on with the projects and partnership that have brought this orchestra acclaim worldwide."

Three other Grammys were related to the St. Paul Chamber Orchestra project "Winter Morning Walks." Dawn Upshaw won best classical vocal solo, Maria Schneider won best contemporary classical composition and David Frost won best engineered recording and best classical engineer.
