The singer-guitarist of 1990’s hitmaking rock act Extreme won a Grammy on Feb. 1 as part of the ensemble of musicians who played on Yungblud’s cover of the Black Sabbath classic “Changes.” The track was recorded at the “Back to the Beginning” concert that served as a tribute to Ozzy Osbourne and Black Sabbath and also marked their final performances. Others featured on the recording include Anthrax bassist Frank Bello and Adam Wakeman II, who put in more than 20 years playing keyboards with Osbourne and Black Sabbath.
It was Bettencourt’s second nomination, but first win. His first nomination came with “More Than Words,” Extreme’s chart-topping hit that was nominated for Best Pop Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocal, but they lost at the Grammys in 1992 to R.E.M.’s “Losing My Religion.” R.E.M. also won the Grammy for Best Alternative Music Album that year for Out of Time and Best Music Video Short Form, for “Losing My Religion.”
Fans and even some fellow rockers, including Mötley Crüe guitarist John 5, were there to congratulate him in the comments.
“If somebody deserves a Grammy is you. No doubt about it. Congratulations Nuno ?,” added another fan.
‘The biggest thing about the newer generation is to remember that with all the AI that’s happening, and everybody’s worried—don’t be. This is the biggest opportunity for rockers and rock’n’roll. Real music and real songs are true stories that touch you, there’s blood on the page and you put yourself on that page and nobody’s reproducing that,” he said, per Forbes.com.
Meanwhile, Extreme is back together and touring this summer with Mötley Crüe and Tesla on the Return of the Carnival of Sins tour, beginning on July 17 and Burgettstown, Pa. and running through Sept. 25 in Ridgefield, Wash. The band is also set to play Monsters of Rock on April 5 in São Paulo, Brazil.
