On the Grammys...
Coldplay...I know you guys are all sexy and everything, and Chris Martin has an ego the size of a house, so he probably thinks he can wear whatever he wants...
Uhm, guys? The Wiggles called...they want their outfits back. Seriously. WHAT were you thinking??
And, M.I.A.? We get that you are pregnant and want us to know you are good with
it. You are hip, you are cool. But the ladybug costume... did you get a discount? What possessed you??
And Grammy Committee...I get the whole musical fusion of styles, and for the most part, I really dig it. But THE Stevie Wonder. With the Jonas Brothers? You choose the least soulful group for him to collaborate with? It was scary, and really didn't work.
Also, we need to talk. TobyMac and Brandon Heath (who were nominated for best Gospel something or other) are NOT gospel. They are contemporary Christian. Oh, I know, they are gospel like Jethro Tull was heavy metal, right? Well, a flute is metal, so you got it half right.
While the Grammys have improved in the last few years, and I no longer want to gnaw off my arm when faced with the prospect of watching the broadcast, it is still woefully out of touch with what real music is. If you want to see real music in action, hit blip.fm.

I missed the Grammy's this year, but I think your recap is right up there with the best of late night television. A fun read today!!!
topsytechie: thanks! It was fun to write, though the grammies were a bit frustrating to watch.
