I'm a music snob, don't measure what's good or bad by my standards, darling.

In all the excitement over Bonnie and Franz, I forgot about Night Wind Sent but I'm ripping it now.

His voice is as high as a six year old boy who inhaled helium. Truly shocking. I can only sound like that when I consciously sing falsetto.

There's a greatest hits comp out there called "The Bonnie Raitt Collection" with all of her early stuff before she hit it big with Nick of Time. It's worth getting for her duet with Sippie Wallace on "Women Be Wise."

Thanks!

Yes. Their music is a pain in the ass to sing. Bono is easy, though...since off-key seems to be his mojo.

I like John Mayer too. Daughters deserved to win that Grammy, I love that song.

Everything I'm into, everyone hates, so whatevah. I love it, and that's all that matters.

Oh, Bono. That performance last night was painful. That intro was unbearable. And Vertigo? SUCKS. How did the video for it win over Franz's Take Me Out video? It's no contest which is better and more original.

I? Am bitter.

Yep - I can't stand John Mayer - don't know what it is - I didn't mind him when he first appeared on the scene - but I hated Your Body is a Wonderland - I find that very statement very juvenile and the song just made me cringe - and now his stuff is all starting to sound exactly the same to me I don't get him I guess

Daughters sounds like something someone like Paul Simon would sing, not a punk in his twenties. What an old song for him to sing, let alone write. I found it very...creepy and odd.

But if people enjoy it, who am I to bring them down? Enjoy it.

*gasp* how dare you slight Paul Simon in such a way kidding....

But yeah - it is an "old" song - I just can't stand it though BUT yeah - I know there are obviously people who like them....to each their own ya know?

Overall, I thought the Grammy show was the best ever (the only real "downer" was that God-awful song...or should I say, PERFORMANCE...by J-Lo & Marc Anthony...J-Lo can't hit a note to save her Latina butt...and unlike her butt, she was singing FLAT...the dissonance was making me ill. And, as a disclaimer, it had nothing to do with the fact the song was in Spanish...not singing in key is a universal faux pas).

I've been a big Green Day critic the past few years (why, I don't know, since I really haven't listened to them really, just kind of ignorantly jumped on the Green Day-basher bandwagon...maybe because I'm not really in their fan demographic)...but they impressed me quite a bit last night. I've been clueless regarding Maroon 5 (again, I'm not even close to being in their demographic), they impressed me, too. Well, I was impressed by ALL (except the above mentioned abboration) the performances (I thought there were a BUNCH of "jaw-droppers"!)..and kudos to U2 for NOT performing "Vertigo"...I'm already burnt out on that song.

WHY did they let Tim McGraw on stage 3, count 'em THREE times?!?!

Southern Rock thing
Live Like You Were Dyin'
Some medley or something towards the end I saw

Dude. Sesly.

Chilid...AMEN and AMEN....J-Lo, Jenny from the block, whatevah, cannot sing. Mark is okay, but she sounded horrid.
