Grammy Award untuk Lagu Rock Terbaik adalah sebuah penghargaan yang dipersembahkan di Grammy Award, sebuah acara yang didirikan pada 1958 dan aslinya disebut Gramophone Awards,^[1] kepada para artis rekaman untuk lagu-lagu berkualitas dalam genre musik rock. Penghormatan dalam beberapa kategori disajikan pada upacara setiap tahun oleh National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences dari Amerika Serikat untuk "menghormati prestasi artistik, kemampuan teknis dan keunggulan keseluruhan dalam industri rekaman, tanpa memperhatikan penjualan album atau posisi tangga lagu".^[2]

Ditujukan kepada para penulis lagi, penghargaan tersebut pertama kali dipersembahkan kepada musisi Inggris Sting pada 1992. Menurut paduan deskripsi kategori tersebut untuk Grammy Awards ke-52, penghargaan tersebut menghormati lagu-lagu baru (berisi melodi maupun lirik) atau lagu "yang pertama kali meraih ketenaran" pada masa kelayakan. Lagu-lagu berisi sampel atau interpolasi tak dianggap layak.^[3]

Bruce Springsteen meraih rekor kemenangan dan nominasi terbanyak, memenangkan empat penghargaan dari sembilan nominasi. Para pemenang penghargaan berganda lainnya meliputi Alanis Morissette serta band-band Red Hot Chili Peppers dan U2, dengan dua penghargaan. Lagu-lgu pemenang penghargaan lainnya ditampilkan oleh para artis Amerika ketimbang kebangsaan lainnya, meskipun karya-karya tersebut ditampilkan oleh para musisi dan grup musik yang berasal dari Kanada, Irlandia dan Britania Raya. Terdapat empat kejadian dimana satu artis atau grup musik dinominasikan pada tahun yang sama: grup musik Aerosmith dinominasikan untuk "Cryin'" dan "Livin' on the Edge" pada tahun 1994, Melissa Etheridge dinominasikan untuk "Come to My Window" dan "I'm the Only One" pada tahun 1995, Jakob Dylan dari The Wallflowers menang untuk "One Headlight" dan juga dinominasikan untuk "The Difference" pada 1998, dan U2 dinominasikan untuk "Elevation" dan "Walk On" pada tahun 2002. Coldplay memegang rekor untuk nominasi terbanyak tanpa sebuah kemenangan, dengan jumlah empat.
