February 11, 20196 yr Know most aren't probably watching the Grammy's tonight, but the amount of estrogen flowing this year at Grammy Awards is suffocating... Still don't understand why being a good guy in America became a bad thing....... smh I know..... take it to a political board but DAMN the World is screwed up.....

February 11, 20196 yr Well, a woman is hosting so.... The Dolly portion was great. Kacey winning is good. Here's some dudes for you! Edited February 11, 20196 yr by mdmost

February 11, 20196 yr Just block out the "me too" / women invasion of Congress subtext and enjoy the tunes for what they are. The ones Alicia does anyways.
February 11, 20196 yr I can't stand Alicia Keys. Her playing is clunky and her singing is awful. I don't get it. Janelle Monae fucking rocked it. Superstar moment . . . welcome to it, Janelle.

Not the best representation of Dolly's Best Songs, but really glad to see Grammy's recognize Dolly's achievements. Most don't know that Dolly wrote the song "I Will Always Love You" that Whitney Houston was famous for. Edited February 11, 20196 yr by LTtxfan
February 11, 20196 yr When I was at the LSD Tour (Lucinda Williams, Steve Earle, and Dwight Yoakum), I got on wikipedia and did some statistical checks: Lucinda Williams, Steve Earle, and Dwight Yoakum have a combined 49 grammy nominations and 8 grammy wins. Taylor Swift has 10 grammy wins. Taylor Swift is basically just the device through which the talent of 100 writers, producers, musicians, sound engineers, etc. is delivered. It's like someone giving out an award for the world's fastest jet and handing it to the dude who painted it. Also, Grammys don't mean shit. But I am glad they are expanding the Americana & regional genre awards. Edited February 11, 20196 yr by Grandioso

Unfortunately today, the Grammy's is much more about politics with a much heavier liberal slant than ever before..... It's a shame, because the most talented and best performers are often ignored at The Grammy's. Edited February 11, 20196 yr by LTtxfan
February 11, 20196 yr Yeah, if Steve Earle were just more liberal, he'd get more awards. And if the Grammys are so liberal, tell me why a rap album has never won Album of the Year. Because Kendrick Lamar should've won last year over Bruno Mars. One might finally win this year but I will not be shocked if Brandi Carlile or Kacey Musgraves wins.

February 11, 20196 yr Go read Alicia Keys' wikipedia page. She might not suit the tastes of JimmyJazz and BrickHorn (who I both love - respeck), but she is no hack.
February 11, 20196 yr Now she’s dressed like Andrew Dice Clay. Edited February 11, 20196 yr by BrickHorn

February 11, 20196 yr I mean if you watch awards shows thrown by liberal organizations and get upset that there’s liberal programming on them, you only have yourself to blame. Music’s been pretty damn liberal for about 50 years.

February 11, 20196 yr Author Don't know if it's live..... But JLo sounds great and still has "junk in the trunk" Edited February 11, 20196 yr by LTtxfan
February 11, 20196 yr Yeah, that J-Lo track is completely synched. She's never sung like that in her life. I hate this shit. It's an awards show allegedly rewarding musicians, and they put celebrities on stage over true musicians. Come on.

February 11, 20196 yr Well, Smokey is one of the greatest, if not THE greatest singers in pop history. He's probably 80 years old and can still bring it. Not like when he was young, but he's still a master. I don't have a problem with celebrity, but sometimes "we" worship the wrong things. Oh well, enjoy the show.

February 11, 20196 yr OK . . . this Brandi Carlisle song is one of the greatest tunes of the past few years. I want to see how they handle the backing band . . . the recording is majestic.

H.E.R. won Estrogen winning the night...... politics baby And see, unlike you, I'm not going to jump to that conclusion because I haven't heard of her. It might be a great album. But don't feel too bad for poor Leon, he still took home a Grammy for Best Traditional R&B Performance.
February 11, 20196 yr Just now, Firemans4Horn said: Brandi Carlisle is the shit. Still need to see her live. She's coming to the Bomb Factory in April. I'd jump on that before AOTY is announced. https://www.thebombfactory.com/event/1800629-brandi-carlile-dallas/
February 11, 20196 yr Yeah, that's the tune. I love the recording -- it goes from singer-songwriting into some kind of crazy Bowie vibe towards the end.
February 11, 20196 yr that travis scott album was great whats this shit? ok go ahead and give it to her just for saying she'd dog walk tomi lahren Edited February 11, 20196 yr by Bottlecap

February 11, 20196 yr You should be ashamed that you keep typing Grammy's. It's not possessing something.
February 11, 20196 yr So you’re basically mad because more country artists aren’t winning? have you even listened to cardi’s album? and H.E.R. is one of the most popular new artists of the year. She does her own stuff Edited February 11, 20196 yr by Pancho Negro
February 11, 20196 yr If this is the "all about the ladies" then I'm all for it. Annie is fucking great. I'd like to see a St Vincent/Janelle Monae collaboration.

February 11, 20196 yr And I’m not watching really...following on Twitter although I did see Janelle’s set. Badass. disagree with the above in keys. She was well famous before her NYC song with Jay. Waaaasy famous before that.
