Grammy Award for Song of the Year
Every year there is a lot of confusion between the Grammy categories Record of the Year, Song of the Year, and Album of the Year.  Record of the Year is awarded for either a single or an album track. This award is given to the performing artist and the producer, recording engineer, and/or mixer of that song. Song of the Year is also awarded for a single or individual track, but the recipient of this award is the songwriter who actually created the song in the first place. Album of the Year is awarded for an entire album, with the award being given to the artist, producer, and recording engineer for that album.
