Did anyone watch the Grammys last night?

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.

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.

You can sing about romance and compassion in other ways than "generic pop ballad."

He doesn't like her, she's boring and her music sucks.

I think Mr Millionaire is being sarcastic. Or is insane. One or the other.

Excuse me?

You obviously weren't here for the profanity argument.

Thanks for pointing that out, NCG. I am still in support of a content rating system, but I've toned it down a bit; it would not actually "restrict" people from listening to it, but would determine its suitability for certain age groups. But enough about that.

Oh, now I remember! I did cover the 'insane' angle as well I think.

Excuse me again?

Haha, this thread! Charlie, never change.

My thoughts on the Grammys: Beyoncé is Jesus. Gaga is a goddess. Not a fan of Pink, but the performance was neat. Everybody else who performed was horrible. Tay Swift dropping and breaking a Grammy was LOL.

Yes, Taylor Swift did drop a few of her Grammy trophies...
