U2 to perform at the Grammy Awards

[cseggleton]

well duh! but bono does not perform THAT badly! did you notice that he was pulling the mic away from his mouth before he finished every line? sounded frigiging awful!

basically just proved how amature his singing is.

sarcasm noted

I love how Chris Martin performs on stage sure it's cheesy but at least he looks into the song and music

yeah, just not his own music

zinnggggg

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

my opinion on u2's performance is ironicly the same as my opinion on get on your boots as a whole...

some amazing, kick ass, unbelievable parts, but very awkward in it's arangement and just not all there.

and much like the song/video, i liked the visuals more than i like the song. and the energy and creativity gets me pumped for the album, but yea... just don't like the song that much.

 

[quadcaster]

Chris Martin is still quite pathetic.

My point exactly

EDIT: YUK, they just won song of the year

 

[nirniva]

Wow, Jay-Z jumping into Lost was totally pointless

Coldplay's performance was boring, but I would've preferred it without the collab.

I think the Jay-Z thing was because he's on a remix of "Lost!" on the Prospekt's March EP.
...Which is not to say I condone it.


(I liked the rest of the EP, though.)

Song of the year: Viva La Vida? uuugh. Don't like though -there are better ones in that album.

The beach clips came out in August 2008. Each one of them, in their unfinished, beach-recorded forms pwn over the vast majority of songs last year. They should qualify.

one thing is for sure.

it was way, way, way better than when they did Vertigo at the 2006 Grammies.

now that was a shit performance. and so was the "one" with MBJ. and i love the MJB version of "one."

I disgree. Vertigo was better. ONE wasn't great.

GOYB was solid, but could have been better.

I don't get that Coldplay bashing, I thought the performance was quite good.
They've just won a Grammy, btw.

And Whitney said something like: Well, thank you Bono. I know I should have worn my boots today. Man, she was high.

And how in hell can Bono sing about Sexy Boots and then wear these creepers.

 

[ybab gnuthca]

At least Coldplay admitted that they are copying more than other people's music.

It's clothes too

Well, yeah, but...

Okay, yeah.

lol

I wish Bono would pretend to the The Fly more often.

Ummm no. Horrible.

 

[U2opra]

Dying to see U2's performance. So far all I've seen is Coldplays on the live stream then I turned it off.

 

[Irvine511]

so far, Kid Rock is the best performance yet.

not the song, just the performance.

 

[BoyOnTheHorizon]

About Coldplay:

A long time ago i used to like them, then they became a little boring but listenable. Now i'm starting to hate them. I can't stand watching Chris Martin performing live.

I'll quote myself just to make a point how i deslike their perfomance. Being Viva La vida this big hit i thought that it totally sucked live. Boots was much better.

 

[kellyahern]

Kid Rock bugs me

 

[The_Pac_Mule]

heres kid rock. Not bad actually I like his call out to Billy Powell

 

[nirniva]

Song of the year: Viva La Vida? uuugh. Don't like though -there are better ones in that album.

Every Blue Crackhead knows that the REAL song of the year is Mercy. Every year.

 

[cseggleton]

in comparison to what i have seen so far......u2 has been the hilight....

 

[Fullonedge3]

Ummm no. Horrible.

Let me guess, not an AB fan?

I love his stage personalities. That's a good part of what makes them a highly entertaining live band.

 

[cdirani]

A lot.

 

[U2Fanatic4ever]

That was awesome. It was funky and rocking and imperfect and passionate and amazing.

U said it VEEP!!

 

[sue4u2]

F'ing Kid Rock gets 2 songs.
Oh well, guess he must be nominated for something. right?

 

[jumpmanjr]

U2 played poorly tonight... it's still early... I wish they'd change their identity, however,... that leprechaun dance in front of the giant screen,... isn't that how they opened zoo tv? Yawn.....

 

[The_Pac_Mule]

oh god the jonas brothers and miley cyrus up soon.


cyanide pills anyone?

arent they running out of identities?

 

[U2Fanatic4ever]

405 people HOLY SHITE..

 

[bcrt2000]

Chris Martin needs to realize that jumping up and down during singing is hampering his voice. That being said I loved the Jay-Z part of Lost. I love the album version of Lost (I haven't really given the Prospekt's March version a listen) and I thought the live performance was really nice because they changed it up.

 

[cdirani]

I loved Boots live! The sound was a bit rusty, but I think the acoustics of the venue had something to do with that. Bono's dancing moves reminded me of the ZooTV era.
