2008 Grammy Thread

[sniggirb]

shes not exactly my cup of tea

 

[UnforgettableLemon]

Wow, that was so much better than I expected. though her dancing still made me chuckle.

 

[Zoots]

the guy presenting the award for Country Album (or whatever it was, but it was Country) said that there's a famous quote from a Country person, that "Country music is all about 3 chords and the truth"

Ohh

 

[pepokiss]

wait... was she pulling a Bono-prompter? (reeding the lyrics)

 

[Diane L]

MY GIRL IS SUCH A HOT MESS!!!!

I LOVE HER!!!!

 

[U2isthebest]

Amy knocked it out of the fucking park. Unbelievable! What a talent!

 

[Zoots]

Amy was pretty good! I liked the stage and chandelier too!

 

[ramblin rose]

wait... was she pulling a Bono-prompter? (reeding the lyrics)

I got that feeling, but I'm not sure. I liked her backup dancers.

 

[Diane L]

And did you catch her shout-out to "My Blake!"?

 

[pepokiss]

she's sweeping!!

 

[Bono's shades]

I love Amy's expression right now! She looks genuinely surprised. Awwww!

 

[ramblin rose]

They're going to put on the music before she even gets to the mike.

 

[U2Fanatic4ever]

good for her.. she won it..

 

[U2isthebest]

She always seems so shy and surprised that people actually think she's talented. She shouldn't. She's one the best artists to come along in quite some time, IMO. Did you see how blown away she looked with "Record of the Year" I'm afraid she'll faint if she wins Album of the Year. At this point, I'd be shocked if she didn't win it.

 

[U2Fanatic4ever]

I got that feeling, but I'm not sure. I liked her backup dancers.

me too.. they were pretty good...

 

[Diane L]

AMY!!!!

YES!!!!!

THAT'S MY GIRL!!!!!

I want to adopt this girl. I want to adopt her and make her PB & J sandwiches and cover her with a blanket when she's sleeping. I want to take care of her. She needs to be taken care of!

 

[Zoots]

Good for Amy! She doesn't look British at all though... till she opens her mouth. lol

 

[VintagePunk]

Awww! I'm genuinely thrilled for her.

 

[U2isthebest]

I love how she mixes Motown, soul, and jazz altogether. The place where she was performing tonight made me feel like I was in some small little club in the 60s.

yeah I totally agree with you there.. I got that same feeling about the place too.. and atmosphere..

 

[VintagePunk]

Yeah, she's always sort of reminded me of Ronnie Spector, but better, with an even stronger voice. More soulful.

The first time I heard "Rehab" I hadn't seen her yet, and I can tell you, I did not expect that voice to come from a tiny Jewish girl from London. It's up there with my all-time favorites.

Exactly, I had the same reaction.

 

[Bono's shades]

The first time I heard "Rehab" I thought it was some old Motown song - except Motown artists didn't sing about stuff like rehab.

 

[Slipstream]

It's just starting here on the West Coast. I'm really not into anybody that's performing except Feist. Anybody that's watched the show could you say when she comes on? And when should we avoid the telly when Fugilicious comes on?

 

[U2isthebest]

Josh Groban and Andrea Bocelli. 2 absolutely stunning voices.

 

[Canadiens1131]

Isn't Winehouse performing from a video link-up because they wouldn't let her into the US due to drug abuse charges?

Aww to hell with it, she's rock and roll at heart

 

[U2isthebest]

So did I! It really confused me at first.

 

[LemonMelon]

Josh Groban

Glad I skipped out on watching the Grammys this year

She actually ended up getting her visa, but it would've been too late for her to be able to get here for the Grammys.
