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.

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

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'!!!~

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

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

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??

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.
