Mark Ronson Reacts to Winning the GRAMMYs for 'Record of the Year' and 'Best Pop Duo / Group Performance' for 'Uptown Funk' with Bruno Mars

Mark Ronson won big at the 58th GRAMMY Awards, taking home the gramophones for ‘Record of the Year’ and ‘Best Pop Duo / Group Performance’ for ‘Uptown Funk’ with Bruno Mars!

Moments after, we caught up with him backstage in the GRAMMYs press room to get his reaction!

“I think that that song really came out of a moment of pure joy, like us jamming in a room, playing the music that…we loved the most… When you’re like jamming with dudes who you love and you respect so much and you’re just in this mood, something joyous can just come out.”

“You never really know until you put it out there,” he told us. “We worked so hard and because we’re all really tough critics of our own music… You know, there were some heated debates and arguments so when we finally got it done then at least we were proud of it. I’m not gonna say we knew it was gonna be a hit, but we knew we were excited and couldn’t wait to play it for people.”

He added, “I will never write anything as good as ‘Uptown Funk,’ I can tell you right now.”
