After being presented the award by Elton John and Brandi Carlile, Atticus Ross shared a short speech: "This really means a lot, particularly in this special moment. First I’d like to thank my best friend, my musical partner, the great Trent Reznor. The music never felt like a safe choice, but it always felt like the right one. I’d like to thank the maestro, the visionary director, our friend Luca Guadagnino… To be honest, we always thought we’d get the call ‘Can you just turn it down a little?’ But it never came, and here we are."
