In his speech, the British star said, "On nights like tonight, it's obviously so important for us to remember that there is no such thing as best in music."
"On nights like tonight, it's obviously so important for us to remember that there is no such thing as best in music," said the singer.
"I don't think any of us sit in the studio, making decisions based on what is going to get us one of these", he added.
