Beyoncé shook up more than her share of controversy with her provocative performance of “Drunk In Love” with Jay-Z at this year’s Grammys, but her rendition of “XO” at the 2014 BRIT Awards is unlikely to raise any hackles.

Alone on stage wearing a glittery blue gown, with only flashing neon lights to accompany her, Beyoncé kept the set classy and spare — but the vocals were, as ever, pretty much peerless.

It was her first time performing the Beyoncé track on television, and she more than did it justice.
