    Breine did not say that, just so you know.

    Also, I'm also surprised at the fact they were nommed too. Nickelback and pretty much all other bands in the same genre (post grunge) are terribad and unoriginal.

    You're surprised that a terrible act was nominated for a Grammy? An award where there's an absurd number of categories to be nominated for? I'd have been amazed if they hadn't been nominated.

    Yes, she did. I'm happy that she won the award. I like her music and I think that she is a good singer.

    Thank You Polaris for this neat sig!

    Carrie Underwood is a better singer, in terms of vocal ability. Taylor Swift's music is more widely appealing however. (comparing them because they're both "country")

    I think Taylor Swift wins so many awards because of her adorable image xD

    I don't have anything against Taylor Swift, but it just seems odd that her album won "Album of the Year".

    She's incredibly safe (i.e. boring), won't get up anyone's nose like Lady Gaga does, and sold over five million copies of her album. She's pretty much the perfect choice for a music industry who are desperate for any mega-sellers.

    Yeah, I presume that's why she won too But still, it's odd. Just odd.

    Odd is the day the Grammys picks a decent album as Album of the Year.

    This was seriously my single favourite moment

    (context: there was a Michael Jackson tribute in 3D, hence the glasses)

    The Jamie Foxx performance of 'Blame it on the Alcohol' was absolute chaos. Seeing "I'm on a Boat" nominated for anything got a laugh out of me too. I also didn't know Weird Al had a new album until this show.

    So it's not a complete loss.

    Nope, but I watched Lady Gaga's absolutely wonderful performance with Sir Elton John on YouTube last night. Gaga's performance is really the only thing I wanted to watch The Grammys for anyway, and the only reason I watched the 2009 MTV VMAs (although Beyonce's performance on that was pretty fantastic too).

    Also, the fact that "I'm On A Boat" got nominated for a grammy is pretty hilarious/great.

    I agree. To me, Taylor Swift is one of the few "pure-hearted" musicians today; one who puts all her heart and soul into her music and sings about romance and compassion. I wonder where everyone else went. I think Taylor could very well be the next Celine Dion.
    Is that your final answer?
