The host I saw at first was a SNORE...

If you turn the volume all the way down, all you see is a bunch of fake smiles, and if you turn your back towards the television, all you see is a bunch of flashes all over the walls...

I think No Doubt pumped up the show, she's cool so...

Eminem should've just said 'I thank all old school rappers' because I learned from them, but boy does he still got a long way to go though...

Norah Jones sounds sort of like Celine Dion???

Norah Jones doesn't need to thank Prince right? I only thought she would mention him just because she was at the show, but maybe he doesn't want anybody too anyway, or that's just me, I always wait for his name...smile




that was 8 months ago. and by the time of the Celebration, she was already catching on. she was doing him a favor more than he was doing her one.

Probably also because I didn't hear of her until then...

not as corny as the human beatbox and the human wah-wah guitar on the acapella version of "staying alive"... barf...

and personally, after al green got a hold of "how can you mend a broken heart?", everybody else should just step the hell off... don't try to fuck wit something after al green... you'll only embarrass yourself...

All I'm looking forward to is the tribute to Joe Strummer & the Clash. I mean, that's the only thing worth seeing, right? The Clash RULES!!!

Right!Right! considering New York&9-11-01 but Norah Winning made Grammys Sense.Conservative but Catchy in a Cocktail way.I just hope for Her it's not a case of Lauyren Hill or Alicia Keys 1 Album or Song Wonder element??

Aw, the show wasn't too terrible. I thought there were a few worthwhile moments.

But, I suppose we'll all never be in AGREEMANCE(tm) about it, will we..

What was up with Erykah Badu!? She looked totally different and um, kinda..ew. And Sheryl Crow's "NO WAR" guitar strap was partially covered up by her hair so it looked like it said "WAR". lol

I thought it was agreeance, not that there's a huge difference. biggrin Durst just sounded like he wanted to come off intelligent with a simple word and couldn't.

Yea, I remember that look on her face & she'd JUST finished performing - don't they ALWAYS get them after they perform?? lol That shit was cold. But while Alicia was touring (I guess) my girl was underway w/ some new shit & got hers (Urban/Alternative Performance: "Little Things," & R&B Album: "Voyage To India,")... SWEET! biggrin

Only thing is I really wish she could have won something for Good Man, that song is incredible... nod

Rhondab

did someone say they lost "RESPECT" for the The Roots simply because they played behind Eminem and Jay-Z. That's so silly. The Roots - Hip Hop, Jay-z (not that bs that gets played on the radio) - Hip Hop and believe it or not Eminem is Hip Hop...don't understand losing respect for The Roots.


But anyway...the Grammys sucked.
