I managed about an hour before I got disgusted and turned the noise off.  Taylor Swift??!!  Give me a break!!

My book was way more interesting....

I'm of the opinion Today's music is garbage! maybe I'm old but I just watched a bit of it & switched channels, what's this Lady Ga Ga crap, did she get her name from Queen's Radio Ga Ga, Elton John did a duet with her, he's a old Queen himself, The Black Eyed Peas are the worst garbage I ever heard, what in God's name kind of crap is that? & Green Day winning for best Rock album, ask John Lydon what he thinks of Green Day, punk has gone mainstream with a orchestra.
The Only Rock & Roll legend was Alice Cooper on the show, AC/DC should have won best rock album, not Green day.

Boy, they sure don't make music like they used to.... "

Amen !!!!!


..... an absolutely abysmal award show

One consolation is that no real instruments are harmed in the making of most of that music...

Having said that, Pink's performance of 'Glitter In The Air' was tremendous.

BTW, AC/DC did win for "Best Hard Rock Performance".

From Wiki:

In early 1995, while the Voodoo Lounge Tour was still in full force (not finishing until August that year) Voodoo Lounge won the Grammy Award for Best Rock Album.

Consequently, Voodoo Lounge would be the first Rolling Stones album to not produce significant hits in America. In the UK, meanwhile, "Love Is Strong", "You Got Me Rocking", "Out Of Tears", and "I Go Wild" were all top 40 chart hits.

Who won for best rap DJ spinning the turntable back and forth?

Didn't see Foxx and, while Jeff Beck was good, I didn't care for the female singer.

My point is I cannot dismiss the entire show as garbage.
We are becoming too close to sounding like "these kids today......."
I may BE old but I ain't admitting it.


LJ.

Swift sounded FLAT to me. Totally off key.
Unimpressed with her.

Springsteen actually won a grammy as well for Best Solo Rock Vocal....Or something like that.

Hey LJ!  Flat indeed!  Ugh!  She's cute n sweet and that's all I can tell about this young gal.  For gawds sakes she cannot sing at all in my humble opinion...how did she win anything? I don't know any of these kids, yes I am OLD....and 98% of what I heard is NOT music....it just isn't music...it's atonal monotony (there is no musical range to this droning on madness so I can't call it music) i.e agony, to my ears lol...and the lyrics to some of the songs are ?????  Dull.  I can't feel any of this so called music, it does nothing to relieve my aches and pains like the real deal can in an instant.  That's how I know if it's music or not....can I FEEEEEEL it.  Or am I annoyed and agitated?  Hmmm.......

Leon Russell, Jeff Beck, and I did like his singer a lot, the blip of a tribute to Neil, all worth it for me, but I wanted Neil THERE to rock us out. 

And I am glad The Kings Of Leon won.

Pink, Beyonce, and LG need to sing actual SONGS like the blues or ANYTHING that is actually a SONG.....music, cause I agree they all can sing. 

I do not know how that guy with his pants down in back and up in the front kept those things on....while he ran all about the stage with MnM getting bleeped constantly, how friggin annoying is that, btw, I have NO clue what they were carrying on about....Yes, I am OLD.  And I am glad I didn't grow up having this madness in my ears....in fact I am saying a sincere prayer RIGHT NOW!  We had the best music EVER to grow up with.  How lucky we are!

The Grammy's are rigged.  Bob didn't win a thing for TTL, which I listen to many times everyday....and like it more each time....so he wins in my household each and everyday baby!
 
Grammy that!

xoxoxo,
Martha; Older n Wiser n very Thankful!!!!
