[Janet]

Oh this is my first official thread and I have been posting for like eons!
Sorry I beat you to it! I usually work for all the awards so this should be fun.

I just want to see Madonna...but NOT the Gorillaz--she's performing with them and it's annoying. I want to see her to PUSH or SORRY alone

[LuckyCharms]

Sweet! The Grammys! Go Van Halen!!! F-ing Wooooo!!!! :]

[Brwn_eyes0511]

Mariah and Faith will be on stage tonight...

That is all I need to know...I'm watching! :thumbsup:

I know! wtf?

[Janet]

Madonna looks great...sounds...ok. I want to look like that at 28...47...my goodness.

[Janet]

I think I liked her European MTV awards performance better...that was flawless.

[JazmenFlowers]

Madonna looks great...sounds...ok. I want to look like that at 28...47...my goodness.
yes ma'am

I'll take her body and the dancer in the maroon jacket. That's all.

oh, and I loved the drag queen boob trick...the drawn on cleavage...lol

[GypsySorcerer]

yes ma'am

I'll take her body and the dancer in the maroon jacket. That's all.

oh, and I loved the drag queen boob trick...the drawn on cleavage...lol

I frickin' love that woman.

[JazmenFlowers]

I frickin' love that woman.
me too - I wish I had half her confidence, resiliance and drive

[Janet]

Yay! Kelly!!!!
That makes me happy! That song rocks.

I have goosebumps, sorry.

[Nico]

I love Madonna. Loved the performance. That album is simply fantastic.

Kelly Clarkson just won. That song is very pretty.

[JazmenFlowers]

OMG I am so happy for Kelly Clarkson - go 'head girl

and thank god she looked good - except for that stupid ribbon thing on her arm

[JazmenFlowers]

Yay! Kelly!!!!
That makes me happy! That song rocks.

I have goosebumps, sorry.
are we separated at birth? seriously, the past hour, you and I have been like telekinetic

[Janet]

OMG! The brother I never had!!!!!!

Seriously, did Mr Martin just go totally off key right there??

[Janet]

I love Madonna. Loved the performance. That album is simply fantastic.

Kelly Clarkson just won. That song is very pretty.

I LOVE Madonnas new album so much.

Anyone just adore Push. I even made it my ring tone. HOT song.

Ok, off topic, I'm back on. I hate thread that go crazy and here I am. I am just a crazy poster tonight.

[JazmenFlowers]

OMG! The brother I never had!!!!!!

Seriously, did Mr Martin just go totally off key right there??
yes and I'm not digging his hair

and can someone explain what is so freaking hot about John Legend and Ordinary People? he gets on my nerves.

[GypsySorcerer]

I was really happy for Kelly, too. I'm having to flip back and forth between this and American Idol.

[amber]

Grammy's are stupid. Can someone tell me if Gwen is performing?

[JazmenFlowers]

alison krauss? blech. she's talented, but yuck. and her acceptance speech sucked.

faith or trisha deserved it.

I did see that faith and tim won country vocal collaboration for like we never loved at all - simply the best country song this year, IMO

[JazmenFlowers]

Grammy's are stupid. Can someone tell me if Gwen is performing?
hey hey now ;)

don't think she is.

did you see how big she is already? they showed her in the audience. she looked glorious.

[amber]

hey hey now ;)

don't think she is.

did you see how big she is already? they showed her in the audience. she looked glorious.
Isn't her album nominated? No, I haven't seen her. And, it's only 5:30 here.

Sorry, but I don't think I like one single performer there. Van Halen? I like them.
Gwen? Yes.
Madonna? not on your life.
Kelly? No way in hell.
Guys singing vapid R n B? Oh, no thank you.
Country Music? Not usually.

I'm glad y'all like it, though. :)

[Janet]

and can someone explain what is so freaking hot about John Legend and Ordinary People? he gets on my nerves.

I WAS JUST ABOUT TO SAY THIS. SO annoying is that song!

[Janet]

alison krauss? blech. she's talented, but yuck. and her acceptance speech sucked.

faith or trisha deserved it.

I did see that faith and tim won country vocal collaboration for like we never loved at all - simply the best country song this year, IMO

Oh I don't like Faith, I am sorry. So close... LOL.

[JazmenFlowers]

Oh I don't like Faith, I am sorry. So close... LOL.
I normally don't either, but I do like what she puts out now and then...usually ballads. Like We Never Love At All is hot.

[estranged4life]

who won best metal performance (IMHO it should be Shadows Fall who wins) or at least if a terror group blows this corporate shin-ding up...I may turn to watch it then & only then :lol:

[bikerchic]

Oh.My.God. Did Bono and MJ bring the house down! Holy f**k! LOVED.IT!
Best performance of the night :thumbsup: for sure!

[JazmenFlowers]

Oh.My.God. Did Bono and MJ bring the house down! Holy f**k! LOVED.IT!
Best performance of the night :thumbsup: for sure!
so far, it is. ms. blige never fails.

and I hate Kanye West.

[amber]

so far, it is. ms. blige never fails.

and I hate Kanye West.
Ah, Ms. Blige. Now we're talking. Must watch around 8:45.

[bikerchic]

so far, it is. ms. blige never fails.

and I hate Kanye West.
Man, does she feel the music. She never dissapoints. Kanye.eww.

[Janet]

Kanye is totally nervous..shaking like a leaf! Too funny.

Bono and Mary J did a great job....poor Bono seemed understated for the first time in his life...she sang that sheyat out of that GORGEOUS song ( Achtung Baby is like my fav album of all time)

[Janet]

Grammy's are stupid. Can someone tell me if Gwen is performing?

Awww I love Gwen too. She's pregnant. I couldn't be happier for her. Since 1995 she just wanted love, marriage and baby. She has it!

[bikerchic]

Kanye is totally nervous..shaking like a leaf! Too funny.

Bono and Mary J did a great job....poor Bono seemed understated for the first time in his life...she sang that sheyat out of that GORGEOUS song ( Achtung Baby is like my fav album of all time)
:nod: :nod: :nod: One, is one of my all time favs! Love that song. The lyrics are awesome. U2 ROCKS!

[JazmenFlowers]

Bono and Mary J did a great job....poor Bono seemed understated for the first time in his life...she sang that sheyat out of that GORGEOUS song ( Achtung Baby is like my fav album of all time)
what's the name of the song and what album is it on? I need to get it.

[estranged4life]

Oh.My.God. Did Bono and MJ bring the house down! Holy f**k! LOVED.IT!
Best performance of the night :thumbsup: for sure!

ruining "One" with U2? I saw that much of the Grummies before turning the channel...Have to say U2 sounded good, but their guest sucked ass.

[JazmenFlowers]

:nod: :nod: :nod: One, is one of my all time favs! Love that song. The lyrics are awesome. U2 ROCKS!
you know I used to not like them, but I have really come to appreciate them in a variety of ways.

[GypsySorcerer]

who won best metal performance (IMHO it should be Shadows Fall who wins) or at least if a terror group blows this corporate shin-ding up...I may turn to watch it then & only then :lol:
It was Slipknot, I believe.

[Livia]

Madonna was awesome.

Alicia Keys looked GORgeous! But better earrings would have made her a 10+

Yay for Kelly! Sorry, Mooriah! (can't stand her)

What was the big deal with Coldplay's guitar player? I missed the first part of that story.

Yes, U2 and my girl, Mary. Love them, but I really love her! She's fabulous!

I like that there's a pit of fans, makes it less stuffy. And I like how the artists are introducing themselves.

Matt Dillon = HOT!!

[Janet]

what's the name of the song and what album is it on? I need to get it.

Mary J Blige has a version on her album Breakthrough.
U2 has it on Achtung Baby.
I know Johnny Cash has a version too...

Great song. It's like "Yesterday" or something...a song that everyone will redo over and over again.

[estranged4life]

It was Slipknot, I believe.

that a "nu metal" band would win that award (Shadow Falls is definitely not "nu metal")...Considering that is still the trend of metal here in the United Sheep of America (bka U Suck Ass!)

Man, I cannot wait til all the nu-metal idiots give up on their dying trend and serve me my fries when I order 'em at Mickey Dee's :nod:

[JazmenFlowers]

ROCK IT KELLY. I hope she hits the notes!!! ;)

EDIT: awesome. I loves me some Kelly even more.

This song reminds me of me and my dad's relationship...I must go cry now

EDIT 2: fckutards - they should've stood or at least looked enthused for her!

[Janet]

I'm nervous for Kelly, she's singing...I hope she rocks this. She looks scared.

[GypsySorcerer]

I don't think Kelly sounds too good. :sorry: It got better toward the end, though.

[Janet]

Oh she was crying...and I cried with her.....awwwwwwwwwww.

[Janet]

GWEN! WOW! She's really with child! She's glowing.

Billy is a cutie.

[amber]

GWEN! WOW! She's really with child! She's glowing.

Billy is a cutie.
what's she doing? She's nominated like, 4 times. Aahhhhhhhh, stupid west coast.

[bikerchic]

U2 won!!!:blob1: :blob1: Now there's a class act!

[JazmenFlowers]

what's she doing? She's nominated like, 4 times. Aahhhhhhhh, stupid west coast.
she was presenting.

[bikerchic]

Now I just need me some Bruce!

[estranged4life]

U2 won!!!:blob1: :blob1: Now there's a class act!

at least someone I like has won (I'm not a Gwen fan per se', But she has my respect & support....Kinda weird but metalheads like Stevie Nicks & Gwen Stefani for some unknown and unmentioned reason).

[golddustwoman77]

What is the deal with the damn crowd tonight!? There have been some really good performances, and yet people seem to have their asses superglued to the seats and aren't clapping.

I thought that Madonna looked good. Her performance was great, but I have seen her perform better.

U2 and Mary J. was awesome!!!!!

Kelly Clarkson sounded great! I thought she did a great job, and that is when the audience broke my camel's back. Show some respect for talent, people! :mad:

Here's Paul........................................

[amber]

she was presenting.
Looks like I'll have to watch. :) Thanks. :wavey:

[amber]

at least someone I like has won (I'm not a Gwen fan per se', But she has my respect & support....Kinda weird but metalheads like Stevie Nicks & Gwen Stefani for some unknown and unmentioned reason).
Because they're super hot, and talented too? They're both great performers? They're both sassy?

[golddustwoman77]

Also, what is the deal with the sound tonight?! No one has sounded as good as they are capable of sounding live. Paul doesn't even sound as good as he always does. :confused:

I'm so glad Paul is doing "Helter Skelter!" That ROCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[bikerchic]

I didn't know Angela Landsbury sang.

[Janet]

Looks like I'll have to watch. :) Thanks. :wavey:

She just stood there wearing a very pretty flowy down the floor dress.

I wonder how she's keeping her hair so blonde...I hear you can't dye your hair pregnant. Most of the people I know who are pregnant let their hair go for 7 months. Stupid question but I wonder.

Amber...she was glowing and hugging U2 they seemed really taken by her. Awww.

[GypsySorcerer]

at least someone I like has won (I'm not a Gwen fan per se', But she has my respect & support....Kinda weird but metalheads like Stevie Nicks & Gwen Stefani for some unknown and unmentioned reason).

Almost every metalhead I know loves Stevie. Maybe it's the raspy voice? It's cool, though. :thumbsup:

Here's Paul........................................
amen - I've thought exactly the same on everything you've said

with respect to Kelly's performance, see my previous post on it

[estranged4life]

Here's Paul........................................

some real talent..."Helter Skelter" is still a heavy classic after all these years!

I know "someone" in TN who I am trading some Paul boots to, I think here name is uh "Alison"...Know of her golddustwoman77?? :thumbsup:

[Janet]

Also, what is the deal with the sound tonight?! No one has sounded as good as they are capable of sounding live. Paul doesn't even sound as good as he always does. :confused:

I'm so glad Paul is doing "Helter Skelter!" That ROCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You are right. HE IS AMAZING but even with sucky sound he is great. Loved the speech.

Hellllter Skelter!!

[JazmenFlowers]

Also, what is the deal with the sound tonight?! No one has sounded as good as they are capable of sounding live
when sugarland was performing you could actually hear some dude talking about her mic being screwed up

[golddustwoman77]

I do believe I know her. ;) I told her that you were up for a trade. I'm glad to see that she got in touch with you. I passed on your message, as I promised.

"Helter Skelter" ROCKED, OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[JazmenFlowers]

She just stood there wearing a very pretty flowy down the floor dress.

I wonder how she's keeping her hair so blonde...I hear you can't dye your hair pregnant. Most of the people I know who are pregnant let their hair go for 7 months. Stupid question but I wonder.

Amber...she was glowing and hugging U2 they seemed really taken by her. Awww.
good question. I have heard that too, but 2 people I know continued to lighten their hair through pregnancy. I have seen some pics and like Christina Aguilera, I'm surprised she has hair left...in fact, I know she wears a lot of falls.

don't know if you know but all of mary j. blige's hair is fake - every bit. if you pay attention you can see the lacing around the hairline.

[golddustwoman77]

amen - I've thought exactly the same on everything you've said

with respect to Kelly's performance, see my previous post on it


Honey, we are in FULL agreement! :thumbsup:

[golddustwoman77]

when sugarland was performing you could actually hear some dude talking about her mic being screwed up


I know what the hell was up with that!? It does look like they could have this stuff fixed before hand, since this is such a BIG event. :rolleyes:

[JazmenFlowers]

what the fug is up with fergie!

oh god john legend won...****

fergie looks like she got her lips done again recently, got a new set of upper teeth and a tongue piercing and bitch is slurring her words...did someone slip her one of my muscle relaxers?

why do people refuse to ignore the fact that she was on kids, inc. and in the group wild orchid (and I ain't hatin cause I love supernatural and talk to me) and now is so hip-hop...she sucks

[Janet]

Jennifer Love Hewitt?? OKAY?!

Fergie...she gets a lot of slack for having something done with her face but I cannot disagree...she looks off to me. She was in Wild Orchid back in the day and in pics she just doesn't look the same.

[Janet]

oh god john legend won...****



I am laughing at his laugh...no one else was laughing. LOL.

[Janet]

S C A R Y. We are in tune tonight.

[JazmenFlowers]

S C A R Y. We are in tune tonight.
holy ****take. we even pulled out the wild orchid reference.

I used to hold up the cd cover and pray I could look like her in wild orchid - I thought she was fab...

ehhh...what's that garth brooks song? thank god for unanswered prayers

[Livia]

Sir Paul was awesome - Helter Skelter -wooo! That roller coaster in the vid looked like Colossus at Magic Mountain...

I've got my surround sound cranked and I tweak the subwoofer and do my own mixing as needed - so far, everyone sounds great.:)

[golddustwoman77]

I've got my surround sound cranked and I tweak the subwoofer and do my own mixing as needed - so far, everyone sounds great.:)

Be extremely glad! I wish I could do all that. My stereo isn't hooked up to my TV. I keep thinking I'm going to do this, but alas I haven't. Now, I remember why I need to do it. :lol:


Sidenote: The sound seemed to be better on Marey Carey's stuff. Maybe they have the kinks worked out now.

[Janet]

Mariah....

Ok, she did those notes, good for her. She was good.

But what's with the hair extensions? I mean she's got natural curly hair. I can't stand fake hair. I'm sorry.

Maybe I just have the thickest hair in the world and I don't get it but still...fake hair? No one's hair is that long...JLH had come too.

WOW, Mariah is amazing! WOW! I didn't think she could do it anymore.

Those notes! They stood for her.

[Janet]

Mariah walked off and she's like *uck y'all -I'm back.

Fiona better win something. LOVE HER.

[Brwn_eyes0511]

I think it's well documented that I love Mariah. BUT...I think this performance was blah. Hair, sucked, dress, sucked, fake tan, sucked.

The performance was ok, but boring in my opinion, as far as what she's capable of. There were sections, mainly the challenging ones, that were clearly a "live pre-recording" much like what Janet Jackson does (that biotch ain't sang a live note in her career). It's the Grammy's - she shouldn't have any backing tracks or pre-recordings at all.

all that said, I still love her...

come on, Brandon, bring it - don't hate me cause I'm beautiful

[Livia]

I'm not a fan of Mooriah, but I thought that was a great performance.

Yay, Kelly! Girl is on fi-yah tonite. Would it have killed Bonnie Raitt to crack a smile?

Terri Hatcher looked great - wasn't crazy about the dress, but her hair and makeup looked good!

OT: My cat now loves oatmeal. I just ate some, and he wouldn't leave me alone. Of course, I let him lick the bowl. ::p

[JazmenFlowers]

Terri Hatcher looked great - wasn't crazy about the dress, but her hair and makeup looked good!
she is entirely too thin. I agree she looked fabulous, I just hope she's healthy.

You are crazy! The dress was one of her best...in a LONG time! The hair was a tad too long...but not so blonde (which I'm thankful for)...and speaking of "live pre-recording"...can we say MADONNA!? :eek:

[Janet]

Mariah was fake? Ohhhhhhhhhhh I thought it was totally live. She kept cracking and killing herself to hit notes...I thought that was real.

Madonna was mostly real...I mean her singing was ...ok. That song isn't a real singing song tho...( Hung Up)

JJ LOL...I would die if I ever heard her sing life...same with her brother. REALLY annoying. I want real...if it's off who cares...at least it's real.

[estranged4life]

Keith Urban sounded alright...But Faith Hill sounds dreadful, But at least KU's backup band is carrying her through.

[JazmenFlowers]

You are crazy!
and your point? ;)
The dress was one of her best...in a LONG time!
true

Mariah's WAS live...I ususally can tell when Mariah is using pre-recorded live vocals...and this one seemed TOTALLY LIVE!

[golddustwoman77]

Keith Urban sounded alright...But Faith Hill sounds dreadful, But at least KU's backup band is carrying her through.


Yep, what was up with that! I have definitely heard Faith sound better. :distress:

[Janet]

Yeah it was. It wasn't at all perfect...strained...but good.

Was that Stevie in that pic while Carlos was trying to talk.

[Brwn_eyes0511]

But Faith Hill sounds dreadful

:shocked:................

[Janet]

Yep, what was up with that! I have definitely heard Faith sound better. :distress:

he he he. My evil powers worked!

LOL. Not a Faith fan.

I do like her hair darker.

[JazmenFlowers]

Mariah was fake? Ohhhhhhhhhhh I thought it was totally live. She kept cracking and killing herself to hit notes...I thought that was real.
Brandon may be able to pinpoint better than me, but the cracks are kinda the point, tho I don't know why. I for sure heard clips of album recording in there and parts where the voice didn't match the breathing pattern.

sorry...I'm a lipsynch guru (or at least I think I am)

[JazmenFlowers]

Yep, what was up with that! I have definitely heard Faith sound better. :distress:
and I love that freaking song. she looked like she was just going through the motions. put the damn guitar down too girl - that was odd.

she should've done like we never loved at all with keith - that would have rocked! I'm pissed that we got shorter time with keith so we could have that crappy "duet"

[JazmenFlowers]

Mariah's WAS live...I ususally can tell when Mariah is using pre-recorded live vocals...and this one seemed TOTALLY LIVE!
you think? you didn't hear samples of the album's vocals?

[Livia]

Did y'all notice how gorgeous Nicole Kidman looks?

[estranged4life]

Yep, what was up with that! I have definitely heard Faith sound better. :distress:

for this show should lose his/her credentials and be fired for such a suckass mixing/production job....Apparently to my ears this person is good for those rap/hip-hop ENTERTAINERS, but ABSOLUTELY sucks-major-donkey-ass for LIVE performances featuring MUSICIANS with REAL INSTRUMENTS!!!

As for Faith Hill, I dont know...Her voice changed somewhere between the last 2 albums she has released, Because her voice sounds very flat on the new album (Everyone knows she has the pipes....But something is wrong somewhere, I dont hear any emotion any longer in her voice.)

[JazmenFlowers]

I agree. I know Faith has vocal problems and, honestly, I don't think she's a greatly talented singer. I bet you she has to work hard to NOT be flat and TO have vibrato.

[JazmenFlowers]

Did y'all notice how gorgeous Nicole Kidman looks?
she looks scrumpdilicious - EXCEPT for her hair...not diggin that side ponytail

[Brwn_eyes0511]

You think? The only thing I have noticed is that she doesn't sing with that "forced" country accent she used for the firsrst few albums of her career...

[Janet]

I agree. I know Faith has vocal problems and, honestly, I don't think she's a greatly talented singer. I bet you she has to work hard to NOT be flat and TO have vibrato.

Like Cry....that song is really hard and I saw her do that live and it was hard for her too....

[wondergirl9847]

HOLY SHEEET!!! Keith sang the livin' crap outta You'll Think of Me!! Sheebus! He didn't even sound that good at Waco on Friday night! LOL I cannot believe they showed he and Nicole!! EEEE!!! Finally, confirmation! He and Kelly have been my faves so far. She made me tear up. You go, Texas girl! :thumbsup:

[BTFLCHLD]

it hasnt shown here yet...
i dont know if i want to see these performances or not!

[JazmenFlowers]

Like Cry....that song is really hard and I saw her do that live and it was hard for her too....
I will give her credit on reworking that song on her last special. It was a zillion times better than the album version - it was gorgeous. I wish I had an mp3.

[JazmenFlowers]

it hasnt shown here yet...
i dont know if i want to see these performances or not!
bitch, ain't nobody asked you - you either discuss the performances or not

if you've nothing to add - hush

put up or shut up

:smooch:

[JazmenFlowers]

HOLY SHEEET!!! Keith sang the livin' crap outta You'll Think of Me!! Sheebus! He didn't even sound that good at Waco on Friday night! LOL I cannot believe they showed he and Nicole!! EEEE!!!

he's sick? I couldn't tell. He sounded awesome. I do remember someone saying he was having voice trouble from so much touring.

you know one thing though, I wish his ad libs at the end of that song weren't so scripted.

[Janet]

Sly and the Family Stone...these are interesting.

Joss Stone is going to do big things. She is so young...but I know now she seems like aimless but she will do big things. I FEEL it yo.

Fantasia...man....she's crazy. I hope she gets some of Kelly's success..she can sing...I like that wild singing.

Adam Levine...he is ok but not for soul singing...LOL. He's quite understated.

Steve Tyler...he's a good performer...love him or hate him...he can perform...but what was that? He did like one note.

SLY! LORD! Love the 'hawk...another one who's brain hit the dust with all those drugs.

[estranged4life]

I agree. I know Faith has vocal problems and, honestly, I don't think she's a greatly talented singer. I bet you she has to work hard to NOT be flat and TO have vibrato.

if you have the major label studio budget you can use a "On Pitch" studio trick to make your voice sound on key and have the vibrato that most seem to want to have (I prefer no vibrato myself...Joss Stone may be great to most, but to me she sounds like she has eaten a Taco Bell burrito and the fart gas has built up her butt so much she cant squeeze the cheese exhaust fumes out!)

Oh boy, Steven "Sellout" Tyler & Joe "Sellout" Perry of Aero-Supply are sucking as usual (Sad to see 'em ruin a classic Sly Stone song)...Dudes, Go back to the drugs...Your music was so heavy back then compared to the ball-less drivel ya have produced in the 1990's-2000's!

I agree with everything you say here with the exception of vibrato preference. Obviously, being a chiffonhead, I gotta at least enjoy it. :)

I remember seeing an Alison Morrer cd that had a label that said "this album was recorded with no pitch corrector" or something like that.

[golddustwoman77]

Am I the only one that noticed this.......I don't think Sly was supposed to walk off when he did. The other musicians seemed to be looking around at each other when and after he did that. Strange!? Of course, Sly hasn't performed in 19 years, so I am guessing that he didn't want to do this show either. Although, why do it, if you aren't going to do it right.

[wondergirl9847]

he's sick? I couldn't tell. He sounded awesome. I do remember someone saying he was having voice trouble from so much touring.

you know one thing though, I wish his ad libs at the end of that song weren't so scripted.

He had a cold. Poor baby. :( He lost his voice a few years ago and couldn't sing for a long time. He's been plagued with vocal issues, and has to be careful. He still sang the living' FRICK outta YTOM.

He always sings YTOM like that...that extra part is awesome, scripted or not. :nod:

Also, just because you CAN get all those various people on stage to sing....doesn't mean you should. :shocked: Aaand....someone kill me if I EVER have to listen to Fantasia scream again. Thanks.

[JazmenFlowers]

Sly and the Family Stone...these are interesting.

Joss Stone is going to do big things. She is so young...but I know now she seems like aimless but she will do big things. I FEEL it yo.

Fantasia...man....she's crazy. I hope she gets some of Kelly's success..she can sing...I like that wild singing.

Adam Levine...he is ok but not for soul singing...LOL. He's quite understated.

Steve Tyler...he's a good performer...love him or hate him...he can perform...but what was that? He did like one note.

SLY! LORD! Love the 'hawk...another one who's brain hit the dust with all those drugs.
Like Fantasia and when did Adam Levine get so hot.

but to me, that whole "thing" was a big bust...

[Livia]

Sly!! Love him, but that was lame...Robert Randolph rocks my world. Did ya notice Randy Jackson from American Idol back there on bass? He and that guy whose name I can't remember were taking turns, both playing bass....dammit, what's his name? He was in Chic! Le Freak!

Edit: Just googled - Nile Rodgers!!

yeah, you're right, I just feel like it loses a little bit of it's power after you hear it at every award's show the exact same way. I'm not knocking it, just making an observation. I couldn't love Keith any more than I do.

[estranged4life]

Sly and the Family Stone...these are interesting.

SLY! LORD! Love the 'hawk...another one who's brain hit the dust with all those drugs.

Sly and the Family Stone would've been great without the special guest crap IMO! I must be in the minority, but I hate when special guests play with a legend, just waters down the whole celebration of musical genius.

As for Sly himself, He is even more a recluse than W.Axl Rose is...As hard as that is to believe. He used to never show up for shows when he was at the top of the funk game in the 70's, So much that there is a popular saying: "Sly Stone even makes Axl look more reliable"

[Janet]

Nile Rogers. He does a lot of interviews about music and he is really with it. I like him-he comes off very personable and with it.

That was a train wreck tho...nice idea but when the star is totally just NOT THERE then there is no point.

Yes, everyone did look confused.

this was discussed at lengths on another board, he did not want to take part in this show...He did so only to celebrate his music, not to kiss up to the Grummie people FINALLY validating his legacy!!!

More power to ya Sly!!!

for awhile a few years ago it was feared his voice may not return to the singing voice he possesses. Glad to see he overcame his problems (And yes, he puts on one helluva show live!)

[JazmenFlowers]

I've never bought the idea of Jay Z as an artist. He smells like the shiny plastic you find in storefronts.

And this blending with Linkin Park (who seems off tonight, like everyone else) and Paul - wtf?

did they practice the harmonies at ALL?

and I hate how they are using Coretta King's death as a launching point of speeches and performances - it sickens me how they capitalize on the deaths of great ones

[Janet]

OMG! My Yesterday reference...crazy. Kind of...weird...

[golddustwoman77]

Okay, this is so cool: Jay-Z, Paul, and that other guy--Linkin Park dude. "Yesterday" was AWESOME! LOVED IT! It was different. :thumbsup: What is up with Jay-Z and the John Lennon Shirt? Interesting.

[BTFLCHLD]

omg linkin park :blob2:
im so watching!

vibrato in singing, but nowadays it is overused to the point it sounds like someone using vibrato has squeezed a weasel in their hands (Alot of pop singers, Especially female pop singers) instead of using power from their vocal chords (ie-Steve Perry & Micheal McDonald)

[JazmenFlowers]

omg linkin park :blob2:
im so watching!
blink one eye once and you will miss it

I haven't read this whole thread, but I had to come say how much I loved this (Linkin Park and Paul McCartney). LOVED IT! :blob2:

[golddustwoman77]

What the hell is wrong with Tom Hanks's hair?! :lol: :lol: :lol:

[JazmenFlowers]

who is tom hanks foolin

since I HATE rap, but it may have something to do with Jay-Z's legendary lost"Grey Album" (A combination mix-match of his "Black Album" & the Beatles "White Album"...As I said HATE rap, but that album was interesting to say the least, til he got in legal trouble over copyright issues with Apple Records & EMI over the Beatles material used.).

I will give the guy credit for the Lennon shirt...But as for Linkin Park, They have/will/still/and always suck!

[estranged4life]

I love the BOSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Go, Boss, Go! :thumbsup:

"Devils & Dust", great tune!!! Very good & yet different Bruce album!

[golddustwoman77]

"Devils & Dust", great tune!!! Very good & yet different Bruce album!


"Devils and Dust" is a powerful song. It is very Dylan-esque, IMO. I love it, and you are right about it being different than his usual stuff.

I love the fact he said "Bring Um Home" at the end. Awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

he tossed in/ad libbed "Bring 'em Home" at the end of the performance...Fitting ad lib for a song about a soldier going into battle in the desert dontcha think?

[JazmenFlowers]

man, I'm sick of all these damn collaborations

BUT I can't wait for my girl Christina to sing...she's coming up soon. dear god, please let her look ok and prove to be the best voice that will be on the stage tonight.

[golddustwoman77]

he tossed in/ad libbed "Bring 'em Home" at the end of the performance...Fitting ad lib for a song about a soldier going into battle in the desert dontcha think?


Yes, that was what I was saying. I was glad that he threw that in there. It was a nice closing, but you know how they rake people over the coals for voicing their opinions about this war. I was glad to see him stand up, and I haven't heard that tonight other than him.


On the "like how part," are you talking about my Dylan-esque comment?

[bikerchic]

Sometimes you can't make it on your own. Yes. Love, love, love this song :thumbsup:

First Bruce, now Bono, me happy :D

Although it would have been nice for Bruce to win. A tie, even better.

how rude and stupid (those sound guys again) to play We Belong Together instead of the U2 song...

[Janet]

Christina will be good.

So no Fiona tonite? They announced her in the beginning.

[bikerchic]

dear god, please let her look ok

1 - does Jamie Foxx have Mariah's mic? - I would have liked a step show instead of a band face off - god I love a step show

2 - this show should be renamed Duettys - there are too many

[estranged4life]

every time I see a perfomance with a marching band the song "TUSK" immediately pops into my head...

"Tusk" Yes....Lame half-ass actor & rapping retard "No"!!!

[Janet]

UGH...what is this ****.

[bikerchic]

how rude and stupid (those sound guys again) to play We Belong Together instead of the U2 song...
Mariah was probably back stage pushing the button

[estranged4life]

What the hell is wrong with Tom Hanks's hair?! :lol: :lol: :lol:

the hair piece he is wearing in the movie "The Da Vinci Code".

Same damn dead squirrel on his head that is shown in one of those ANNOYING "Entertainment Weak-ly" I keep receiving through a free 1 year subscription (At least when WWIII happens I will have 52 issues to use for toilet paper due to the "Great TP" shortage that will occur.)

[golddustwoman77]

UGH...what is this ****.


The **** that my middle school students love! :rolleyes:

[JazmenFlowers]

Mariah was probably back stage pushing the button
LMAO

that's hilarious - I got the most awesome visual

[estranged4life]

Green Day's singer still thinks he is Lindsey Buckingham during the mascara era of the Tusk tour...Whatta poser!!!

[golddustwoman77]

I'm so glad Green Day won! I love them! American Idiot is a terrific album. I noticed they mentioned Chris Lord Algee as the mixer.

[wondergirl9847]

Love the hand holding.

[bikerchic]

Love the hand holding.
Keith sits like a girl. Love the dark hair though.

[JazmenFlowers]

Love the hand holding.
oh my

and, is mr. urban shirtless under that leather blazer, praytell?

[BTFLCHLD]

Love the hand holding. interesting body language...he has been a bad boy!

[estranged4life]

Keith sits like a girl. Love the dark hair though.

makes me think of the doctors appt. I had last week when the Dr. asked me to sit like a girl (So she could check my reflexes), I told her "I dont bend that way!" :lol:

[Janet]

Christina usually does good.

She's got it together finally...looks good and sounds good...she will do well next album. I feel it :)

[JazmenFlowers]

Christina usually does good.

She's got it together finally...looks good and sounds good...she will do well next album. I feel it :)
I think so too. Her next album is rumoured to have the same feel as A Song for You. She sounded fabulous. Her performance of that song on Ellen was phenomenal. It's on YOUTUBE if you want to watch.

As far as her look, makeup was a little much (nothing new for her) and I didn't like the hair. The dress was hot.

for sure, the best performance of the night...that's my girl!

[bikerchic]

Christina usually does good.

THat girl can sang! Stupid Britney for taking away her limelight.

[amber]

okay, madonna blergh, but I do have a leotard fetish, so I like hers.

[Janet]

Well Britney is gone now. I don't think she has a chance to really get a nice career back.

[JazmenFlowers]

me either. she's hyping her self up as revamped so I'm anxious to see how desperate she is to salvage her career.

[estranged4life]

Christina usually does good.

She's got it together finally...looks good and sounds good...she will do well next album. I feel it :)

but she is definitely my kinda eye candy...Of course I would rather be a boytoy for Stevie, I know...Im a perve!!! :lol:

Enough of the leotard already Madonna! :mad: Ya, ya.......we see your big man legs.

[amber]

I take it you're not a fan of leotards like I am.
Big man legs? Not quite. I think it's called muscle tone. :)

[JazmenFlowers]

they just showed the IN MEMORIAM

and who's on there but their sound engineer... :rolleyes:

[golddustwoman77]

I agree; Christina sounds good and looks soooooooo much better. I wish her luck with the next album.

I'm not understanding the whole "Chris Legend" thing. He wouldn't have been my choice for Best New Artist. :eek:

[JazmenFlowers]

Enough of the leotard already Madonna! :mad: Ya, ya.......we see your big man legs.
madonna's hot. her ability to keep that body in tip top form is amazing.

queen latifah - love you girl, but why oh why did you wear a half-a-corset?

[BTFLCHLD]

Enough of the leotard already Madonna! imo its such an unattractive look for her and they are like oldlady tards at that!

[JazmenFlowers]

I agree; Christina sounds good and looks soooooooo much better. I wish her luck with the next album.

I'm not understanding the whole "Chris Legend" thing. He wouldn't have been my choice for Best New Artist. :eek:

I take it you're not a fan of leotards like I am.
Big man legs? Not quite. I think it's called muscle tone. :)
I like leotards.....on ballerina's, not wrestlers.

im just basing my opinion on the many photos ive seen with her legs spread abductor style...and if she wants to look hot...do something hot...maybe some silky slingshot or piece of rope...not a thick-ass tard with heavy seam from the 70s :eek:

imo:o

[bikerchic]

How sweet was the speech that Bono have! That was terrific. I love them.
Go U2! :thumbsup:

anywho, the grammy's were pretty sucky with the exception of a few instances. will awards shows EVER be good again. le sigh.

[golddustwoman77]

"In the Midnight Hour" is one of my favorites. Wilson Pickett will be missed. I loved to listen to Wilson Pickett and dance/sing with my mom when I was little. Good times.....good times. :lol:

[golddustwoman77]

Well, all in all, I could have totally not watched this, and I wouldn't have missed much. It has been real hanging out with you guys and talking about the show. It was fun. :)

[BTFLCHLD]

[estranged4life]

"In the Midnight Hour" is one of my favorites. Wilson Pickett will be missed. I loved to listen to Wilson Pickett and dance/sing with my mom when I was little. Good times.....good times. :lol:

I think the music my Mother liked when I was little was almost all disco and/or classic rock...And especially FUNK!!! Damn I have a huge Funk music collection I inherited of her's.

[Janet]

All done. Not worth it.

[Livia]

What the hell is wrong with Tom Hanks's hair?! :lol: :lol: :lol:

Exactly what I yelled out loud at the TV! :eek: I thought it was a wig at first, but I think it was just too much hairspray. He had Mod Ken doll hair.

[amber]

I hate Bono. But I like their music ok. Also <3 MJB.

[BTFLCHLD]

Also <3 MJB

She always does. She's really got the goods, no lie, no front.

[bikerchic]

Not that I care but did Mariah win anything?

[Livia]

Yeah, she won a few, but not televised. What - you couldn't read that tiny print on the bottom of your screen? :)

I was squinting at it - looking for Little Joe's Tejano award. I did notice that Delbert McClinton won for best contemporary blues, or something like that. U2 won a few more than what we saw tonight and Aimee Mann won for packaging.

Did y'all notice Chris Lord-Alge up there with Green Day?

[amber]

Love the one shoulder, Gwen. Very flattering. :thumbsup:

I dunno. It was more flattering than other things I've seen her in. However, I muted her showboat caterwauling and put stevie on. :p

Dammit, Gwen isn't going to win anything. :distress:

[Janet]

Gwen has plenty of time.

She will put out a new album all about her baby with wonderful lyrics and vocals as always.

I can't wait. I am so excited for her solo career.
I <3 LAMB

[BTFLCHLD]

I dunno. It was more flattering than other things I've seen her in. agreed...


same old song from keith urban

[ragandbone]

Rats! I love the Grammy awards, even when it sucks and nobody I care about wins, and tonight poeple I like won a few...I want TV! but just on the nights when there are silly awards shows.
sigh.
I am going to go scour the Grammy website for video now.

[BTFLCHLD]

sly and the family stone...i thought it was the guy from rockstar inxs

[BTFLCHLD]

tom hanks is letting his hair grow longer
if it was shorter it would look the same as it always does

[Red]

Ouch, take that back! I loves me some INXS!

[BTFLCHLD]

who do you think the next rockstar band is?

[Red]

not jd...the other guy during the competition with the mohawk

Hmmm, let's see...who's dead. jk

I was actually really happy to see INXS have another go at it. The were my uber-band for the longest time and still are. Okay, well they don't usurp FM, but still, you see what I'm saying.

I can't help but want to see Courtney Love resurrect herself, as big a car wreck as she is. A new and impoved Hole? I'm all over that like a trannie ho on Eddie Murphy.

[BTFLCHLD]

Courtney Love hmm hadnt considered her


this grammy show is dragging
isnt it over yet?

[Red]

hmm hadnt considered her

Don't give a f*ck about the grammys. Mariah is no Johnny, I tell you what.

[GODDESS6]

i missed the last hour, damn it fell asleep~ i loved kelly clarkson's performance, i thought she was awesome, & i am glad she won, but i am not sure how many, when i went lights out, i believe she'd won 2~ i thought mariah wasn't a train wreck for once, i mean style-wise, she sounded phenomenal~ keith urban is delicious beyond words & his song was fabulous~ even tho i can't stan 99.9% of rap/hip hop songs, i loved the whole fact that paul mccartney came out w/ jayz & linken (*sp) park~ & you know i ain't no spring chicken, i have grown up w/ sly & the family stone's music, but i honestly don't think i have ever seen what sly looks like~ so when he came out, let's just say i was speechless, the golden mohwak, the golden coat, wowzer~ the tribute to him was smokin'!!!~

[gldstwmn]

Yeah that was a surprise. Did it look like Mariah Carey was lip synching?

[JazmenFlowers]

Yeah that was a surprise. Did it look like Mariah Carey was lip synching?
to parts of a "live pre-recording", yes

parts were actually live, parts were not

[Livia]

not jd...the other guy during the competition with the mohawk

who do you think the next rockstar band is?

I thought it was going to be Van Halen??

[strandinthewind]

Yeah that was a surprise. Did it look like Mariah Carey was lip synching?

a little - but her dress was FAB~!!!!!!

[strandinthewind]

Was that really considered to be a good performance of One? That woman was terrible, I tune in to see U2 and am stabbed in the ears by her non-melodic shrieks. I despise that style of singing and I'm not impressed by vocal acrobatics that exist not to assist the song in any way but simply to show off the singer. Actually I hate them entirely but particularly then. Give us back the freaking melody and shriek your stuff some place else! Terrible terrible terrible.

This, however, is not terrible.

I agree - no one really sings a single note anymore. Instead they sing five where one ought to be and it pisses me off :laugh:

well, I guess different strokes for different folks. I do agree with you, just not in this instance. Mary J. Blige is a phenomenal talent that, to me, really puts a lot of intense emotion into her performances. The type of performance she gave last night are so moving, again, IMO.

And some people enjoy vocal acrobatics. I like them occasionally just to see what the singer can do and how much control is there, but I agree with you there is too much of it in place of "real" singing these days.

What's up with Larry Mullin's hair?? Ya know, I think he's a very attractive guy but he looked like Larry Mullet last night. Tom Hanks's hair looked about as bad as it gets. What was WITH the hair last night??

[amber]

MJB tastes good when it should. I don't usually like the five notes in place of one type covers - but in this case she really spiced up Bono's boring. And again, MJB has got the real thing with that voice. Mariah? Now that was offensive and showboatish. Yes, I do hate her, but still.

[cliffdweller]

I agree - no one really sings a single note anymore. Instead they sing five where one ought to be and it pisses me off :laugh:


:laugh::laugh: I tend to agree, and noone does this more to the nth degree than Christina Aguilera! She has a great voice and she can sing, but those "runs" (thanks Randy Jackson for that term) are attrocious!

[JazmenFlowers]

not to me - I think she is an example of someone who is way too talented for her own good and her "runs" are always fabulous

:D

:nod: :nod: :nod: Agreed. I loved that performance. It's on Youtube http://www.youtube.com/?v=C1FOG5xbKjg

I guess its no different than some of Stevie's performances (Vegas B&B), the outfit, the hand over the eyes, the twirl (all the drama). We all love that but non fans might think, WTF?

[BTFLCHLD]

I thought it was going to be Van Halen??
i think some thought it would be but
heard on the radio that it wouldnt be
so im not sure...have you heard that it will be?

[cliffdweller]

For my liking, an "intensely emotional" vocal would be Lennon's 'Mother'


That song gives me goosebumps and makes me cry. Raw emotion indeed.

[Livia]

i think some thought it would be but
heard on the radio that it wouldnt be
so im not sure...have you heard that it will be?

No, I think I heard the same thing you did, and nothing since.

[JazmenFlowers]

For my liking, an "intensely emotional" vocal would be Lennon's 'Mother', now that's some raw, honest singing/screaming and I can't imagine hers even being compared with that kind of vocal.
no argument here on that point. a great example too of what you're saying.

[bikerchic]

Guess it is 'cause I found it the opposite of appealing and emotional. To me a voice that is real and emotional is John Lennon, not technically great, not showing off, you could call it raw and honest. For my liking, an "intensely emotional" vocal would be Lennon's 'Mother', now that's some raw, honest singing/screaming and I can't imagine hers even being compared with that kind of vocal.


Comparing MJB to John Lennon is about the funniest thing I've heard in a long time. I don't know if you noticed, but she's black. Black singers have a whole spiritual thing goen on when they sing. It's her way of expressing herself, I guess the same way that rappers grab their crotch when they sing :shrug: :laugh:

[JazmenFlowers]

I don't know if you noticed, but she's black. Black singers have a whole spiritual thing goen on when they sing.
ROFLMAO

This is my first belly laugh for the day.

[SuzeQuze]

for this show should lose his/her credentials and be fired for such a suckass mixing/production job....Apparently to my ears this person is good for those rap/hip-hop ENTERTAINERS, but ABSOLUTELY sucks-major-donkey-ass for LIVE performances featuring MUSICIANS with REAL INSTRUMENTS!!!

As for Faith Hill, I dont know...Her voice changed somewhere between the last 2 albums she has released, Because her voice sounds very flat on the new album (Everyone knows she has the pipes....But something is wrong somewhere, I dont hear any emotion any longer in her voice.)

Maybe Faith is taking Klonopin. ;)

The sound guy really was atrocious and I agree that he should be canned for that BS. Mary J sounded muddy to me, Paul's vocals were way off, he was turned way too high in the beginning, and the musicians too low. I loved Helter Skelter, that was the perfect song to pick. They had the sound better by then too. There's something odd about that guitar player though, like he's got a really bad nose job or something, does not look human.

I liked Faith! I thought she was good. I missed Mariah and wanted to see her. I agree that her dress was better than what I have seen her wear in a long time. And agree about the hair. I got to see her at the end, but missed the whole vocal switching to Idol.

I really enjoyed Aguilera and Herbie's song, she is a real talent. I also wish she would cool it with some of the vocal acrobatics but she really has a gift there and I appreciate that. Maybe as she matures she'll lose that self-consciousness about having to prove something and will be more real.

I loved U2 last night, they really are something. I missed Bono's voice on One, that should've been made more of a true duet. He is still sexy even if he is covering some baldness with too much product. Meow.

Joss Stone has got to stop wearing mumus. And her vocals are sloppy, stay within the boundaries of the song girl! I do like her voice but the sloppiness is very annoying.

Fantasia looked great. Her vocal didn't start very strong but got better. I loved the fringe on her dress. Who was the woman singing with Maroon 5? She cannot sing live but can wear a slinky black dress. I didn't care for the dress but what a bod! :shocked:

I enjoyed this show because there were lots of performances and less of the pompous BS.

[SuzeQuze]

"Devils and Dust" is a powerful song. It is very Dylan-esque, IMO. I love it, and you are right about it being different than his usual stuff.

I love the fact he said "Bring Um Home" at the end. Awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Me too! Three words that couldn't have been more powerfully stated. I've got to really listen to that song.

Are you referring to the fact that Courtney is now clean again and recording with Billy Corgan? I would love to see a fantastic comeback album from her!

[SuzeQuze]

I'm bored with the shade, but they look good. Damn he's a hottie. :lol:

Devils and Dust

I got my finger on the trigger
But I don't know who to trust
When I look into your eyes
There's just devils and dust
We're a long, long way from home, Bobbie
Home's a long, long way from us
I feel a dirty wind blowing
Devils and dust

I got God on my side
And I'm just trying to survive
What if what you do to survive
Kills the things you love
Fear's a powerful thing, baby
It can turn your heart black you can trust
It'll take your God filled soul
And fill it with devils and dust

Well I dreamed of you last night
In a field of blood and stone
The blood began to dry
The smell began to rise
Well I dreamed of you last night, Bobbie
In a field of mud and bone
Your blood began to dry
And the smell began to rise

We've got God on our side
We're just trying to survive
What if what you do to survive
Kills the things you love
Fear's a powerful thing
It'll turn your heart black you can trust
It'll take your God filled soul
Fill it with devils and dust
It'll take your God filled soul
Fill it with devils and dust

[Harmonica solo]

Now every woman and every man
They wanna take a righteous stand
Find the love that God wills
And the faith that He commands
I've got my finger on the trigger
And tonight faith just ain't enough
When I look inside my heart
There's just devils and dust

Well I've got God on my side
And I'm just trying to survive
What if what you do to survive
Kills the things you love
Fear's a DANGEROUS thing
It can turn your heart black you can trust
It'll take your God filled soul
Fill it with devils and dust
Yeah it'll take your God filled soul
Fill it with devils and dust

Sorry, I'm on a youtube kick :laugh:

[BTFLCHLD]

I'm bored with the shade, but they look good. Damn he's a hottie. :lol: i really like the video 'original for the species' when he takes those glasses off, shields his eyes, and then exposes them.

[bikerchic]

I don't think he's really all that cute without the glasses :sorry: me thinks thats why he wears them. All the different styles and colours keep your eye on them and not his looks. Does that make sense? He's still hot though.
