One lucky musician just dethroned We Are by Jon Batiste for a highly coveted honor.

Tonight, the 65th Annual Grammy Awards took place in Los Angeles, where Harry Styles won the award for Album of the Year for Harry's House*Cue the confetti*

The artist beat out 30 by Adele, Good Morning Gorgeous by Mary J. Blige, In These Silent Days by Brandi Carlile, Mr. Morale & the Big Steppers by Kendrick Lamar, Music of the Spheres by Coldplay, Renaissance by Beyoncé, Special by Lizzo, Un Verano Sin Ti by Bad Bunny and Voyage by ABBA.

Album of the Year has been around since the first Grammy Awards ceremony in 1959. Since the category recognizes the entire work—not a single track like Record of the Year—the statuette is given to the artist, the producers, the recording engineers and the mastering engineers.

Previous winners include We Are by Jon Batiste, Folklore by Taylor Swift, When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go? by Billie Eilish, Golden Hour by Kacey Musgraves, 24K Magic by Bruno Mars, 25 by Adele, 1989 by Taylor Swift, Morning Phase by Beck, Random Access Memories by Daft Punk, Babel by Mumford & Sons, 21 by Adele, The Suburbs by Arcade Fire and Fearless by Taylor Swift.

Somebody get Harry a bottle of Champagne. He seriously deserves it.
