Unlike "Record of the Year," which is awarded for the production of a single track, the "Song of the Year" Grammy is given to the lyricist(s) and composer(s) for the actual song itself.
At the 2008 Grammy ceremony, Amy Winehouse won the award for her hit song "Rehab," accepting it "via satellite" in London.
