There were two songs about praying during the telecast. Sam Smith sings about being an athesist who seeks to find solace by praying. In Kesha’s song she laments about the possible redemptive power of praying. Her performance was the highlight of the evening. Her voice exploded with fearless emotion. It was refreshing to add an element of religion to the awards show without generically thanking a higher power.
