While the band were not at the awards, Robert did send in a speech to be read.
From The Cure:
SIMON, JASON, ROGER, REEVES AND I WOULD LIKE TO THANK THE GRAMMY'S FOR THIS WONDERFUL AWARD;
WE ARE VERY HONOURED TO RECEIVE IT.
WE WOULD ALSO LIKE TO THANK;
EVERYONE WHO HELPED IN THE CREATION OF OUR SONGS OF A LOST WORLD ALBUM, PARTICULARLY CO-PRODUCER PAUL CORKETT;
EVERYONE IN THE UNIVERSAL MUSIC GROUP WHO WORKED SO HARD TO GET OUR LOST WORLD FOUND;
EVERYONE IN OUR MOSTLY INDEFATIGABLE CURE CREW, INCLUDING ALL THOSE AT PRIMARY AND CAA;
AND MOST IMPORTANTLY, ALL THE CURE FANS AROUND THIS WORLD WHO CAME TO OUR LOST WORLD SHOWS AND ENJOYED OUR LOST WORLD MUSIC;
WITHOUT YOU, NONE OF THIS WOULD BE POSSIBLE.
THANK YOU.
