“The tribute to Liam really has me bawling :(( seeing stuff like this and it still just doesn’t even feel real,” wrote one fan.
Another lamented, “Liam Payne being first in the Grammy memoriam and having a little video is something I will never get over. Chris Martin’s tribute to Liam Payne oh I’m an emotional wreck.”
“Enjoying the Grammys and then getting hit with the Liam Payne tribute felt like getting hit by a semi-truck,” a third fan penned.
The segment also featured tributes to icons including Marianne Faithfull, Tito Jackson, Eric Carmen, Cissie Houston and Rich Homie Quan.
