The 2017 American Music Awards wrapped just a short time ago, and while the show has never been one to watch for the tear-filled acceptance speeches, the program really delivered when it comes to live performances this time around.

At the moment, Keith Urban appears to be the biggest winner of the evening, as he took home three awards, dominating the country field. One Direction singer Niall Horan collected Best New Artist (despite the fact that he’s been a force in America for years now) and Bruno Mars earned Artist of the Year, beating out names like Drake, Ed Sheeran and The Chainsmokers.

From Kelly Clarkson and Pink opening the show with their powerful rendition of R.E.M.’s “Everybody Hurts” to Christina Aguilera Whitney Houston tribute to Pink’s showing of her new song “Beautiful Trauma,” which took place on the side of a hotel, there wasn’t just one standout performance this year. K-pop group BTS, which is currently helping give the genre its biggest moment in American history, became the first band to perform in all Korean, and the audience couldn’t have been more excited to see them have their moment.

After many of the biggest pop stars on the planet promoted their latest cuts in stellar form, the legendary Diana Ross took to the stage to perform a medley of some of her biggest hits, right before she accepted the Lifetime Achievement trophy, which was handed to her by her entire family, which joined her on stage. Ross didn’t need acrobatics, dancers or pyrotechnics to show that at 73 years old, she can still wow a large crowd.

Here is the full list of winners from the 2017 American Music Awards:
