After three previous nominations for Song of the Year, Bruno Mars has finally come out as a winner.

The 32-year-old musician picked up 'Song of the Year' Grammy for 'That's What I Like'.

He took the award alongside co-writers Christopher Brody Brown, James Fauntleroy, Philip Lawrence, Ray Charles McCullough II, Jeremy Reeves, Ray Romulus and Jonathan Yip.

This year's nomination marks Mars' fourth in this category and his first win.

During his acceptance speech, Mars said, "I've known these guys for over a decade. All those horror stories you've heard about the music business, we've been through all of it. That's the first time on this album we came collectively as a group and put this song together and album together".

This is Bruno's fourth win at this year's star-studded ceremony. Earlier in the day, he won trophies for - Best R&B song (That's what I like), Best R&B album (24K Magic) and Best R&B performance (That's what I Like).
