I would have to say I agree with you the grammy’s are always boring to me but I like the performances I though Pink did her thing, Lady Gaga was dope but that’s about it.

It’s funny how every year, we music fans come to the Grammys expecting it to be much better THIS year. Although it actually was better this year than last year’s.

One point of contention, Pink also recycled her tour performance for the Grammys. While it was impressive, she’s done it over 160 times in different cities around the world.

GaGa was the peak of the show for me. Beyonce was cool but IIWAB isn’t my favorite song from her. I wish Kanye had been there!

Wow, I thought I was going to disagree with all you wrote and I don’t. I too, was underwhelmed overall by the Grammys, then again, by all award shows. Really the only point we disagree on is Gaga. We’re never going to agree on her, just because I find her to be completely unoriginal and a carbon copy of all those who came before her. If you take away the costumes, makeup, antics — there is nothing memorable about this girl. That’s what bothers me, is that people don’t see that. If people ADMITTED to her lack of originality and that she’s simply a fad, I’d change my tune of hate to strong dislike…

Pink STOLE the show. That woman is so underrated. Here’s the thing, if you take away all the aerial acrobatics, Pink still delivered a show stopping performance. Her voice – spot on, even while spinning rapidly through the air without a harness.

Taylor Swift, I will NEVER defend this girl’s performance skills, she’s always so pitchy, but she deserved the awards bestowed upon her all year long. Record sales aside, the girl writes catchy, catchy songs. WRITES THEM herself. That is true talent, especially at a young age.

MJ Tribute… um… can we all agree to stop paying tribute to this man? So far, all tributes, except Janet’s, have felt contrived and underwhelming. Being a Janet fan aside, her tribute was the most heart-felt, touching one because it came from a place of LOVE, not obligation.

Speaking of Janet, can Beyonce get her on schtick already?! Why does she have to bite Miss Janet so much? Though, have to admit, loved that she busted out “You Outta Know,
that was fresh.

Jamie Foxx – I feel like he’s straight up punking the music industry. Every time he performs I feel like it’s a HUGE joke. No matter how serious he takes himself, he will forever be the dude from “In Living Color” to me.

Only omission on your part, simply because you’re not a country fan — Lady Antebellum, straight up pure singing, harmonies, beautiful. No antics, no costumes, no gimmicks, no “fan voting,” just straight up musical performance and for that I give them props.

Lastly, FTW, Kings of Leon — hell YES!
