Tonight, Miguel performed Michael Jackson‘s Off the Wall classic “She’s Out of My Life” at the Grammy Awards. The song’s original keyboardist, Greg Phillinganes, joined Miguel on stage while archival footage of Jackson was played on a screen overhead. He then gave a speech honoring Off the Wall.

Miguel was nominated for two awards this year: Best R&B Song for “Coffee” and Best Urban Contemporary Album for Wildheart.
