And Tina looks reaaally great! Yes at her 68 she looks so young.. But she doesn't move like in her 30s or 20s.. I've seen videos of old shows, she is a bit slower. It's like comparing Rhiannon this decade with the 70s. But still. she performs great!! I adoore her! |

I have to agree with you here.. it actually doesn't. Some of my favorites didn't get their "album award" either.. as I LOVE Daughtry.. nothing.. I agree, as I think true musicians aren't out to seek the awards.. I think the awards just come to those people!

You rock, Tina. |

I watch the Grammy's (on DVR so I can fast forward through all the bull**** ) to see the live performances. I thought it was a really good mix of music from several different genres, but nothing was all that spectacular. The last time something actually blew me away was when U2 & MJ Blige did "One" a few years back. Was that even the Grammy's? Maybe not. Anyway..... |

I think this is just rewards for the Eagles. Just about every country band you can think of has released at least one really awful (blatant ripoff) Eagles cover.

Well, remember it wasn't all that long ago that Jethro Tull won for Best Heavy Metal album.

"How Long" is more country-sounding to me than "Before He Cheats."
A couple Stevie connections: Joe Walsh was in the crowd, they put one of those winner captions up on the screen. Dave Koz played sax w/ Kid Rock and what's her name. |

Seeing that Slayer won the best metal award with a bonus track from a re-release (Which was associated with Rick Rubin) is proof that the Grammy's are indeed a popularity contest...
Machine Head's "The Blackening" should've been the winner.

You know, I think his tunes are catchy, and I think he's got some talent. But his attitude sucks. I guess it's all part of the act, his persona so to speak. But he isn't that good & the fact that he thinks he is makes him kind of a joke. |

Exactly..I agree 500% - I mean, does he really feel people "owe" him or something? I don't think he's all that great either..
