While I like listening to music, I have to admit I am not a music-phile, or whatever it would be called. I will often times be accused of listening to music that went out of style with half the clothes I still keep in my closet. So, I really had no desire to watch the Grammy Awards last night. So, we didn’t, until the last hour and a half that is. I saw things I did NOT want to see, things I didn’t care about and quite frankly, things that scared the hell out of me. While I didn’t see the whole show, I can say the following based on what I did see.
– I am glad that Taylor Swift finally ran out of eyeliner. Not because I like her and think she looks better, but because I hope it causes her great pain.
– Carrie Underwood still has no personality when she sings.
– Speaking of no personality, Blake Shelton should just remove himself from everything. When he sings without a guitar, he looks like Kathryn Hepburn the later years. Other times, he just looks blank and lost. Plus, he sounds horrible. My opinion.
– Tony Bennett … Well, he’s Tony Bennett. As I heard today “He is like 1116 years old and he still gets more tail than a waiter at Red Lobster.”
– Glen Campbell sounded the same as he has as far as I can remember. Yeah, I used to listen to him when he could remember I did.
– Adele … when she speaks she reminds me of Eliza Doolittle. When she was accepting last night, all I could think of was …
– The head of the Grammys gives a big speech about pirating music and then they have Steve Jobs in the dead people tribute as an innovator in digital music. Yeah, he gave everyone an iPod so they would want to go online and download all kinds of illegal music. They however didn’t recognize other people that died.
– I forgot, they gave a tribute to Whitney Houston. Don’t make me go there. Hate me if you will but … no. Never mind.
– I really don’t get the mouse head that lights up. Why?
– L.L. Cool Whip gave a 3 second tribute to Don Cornelius. At least it was more than Etta James got.
– Chris Brown channeled the wardrobe of Run-DMC. That was all he channeled.
– Foo fought well.
– Dave, Bruce and Joe did pretty well with Sir Paul.
– Nicki Minaj was horrible. Do people actually like her? And why does she have to have an alter ego?
What does any of this have to do with anything that you, the reader cares about? Not much. My opinions. I am realizing I am getting grumpier and crankier as the days go on. Probably work related. Plus, every day I put a tag for Whitney Houston in my blog, I get tons of hits. Yeah, it is cheap to use this as a ratings booster but, too late.
