I haven't watched this tribute to marketing creations train wreck in many years. This show, like American Idol, The Voice and all the other idiot box schlock fest disasters treat music as a commodity and devalue had dishonored it for an adoring public that has no idea what constitutes what singing and music - real music - even is. In no way whatsoever does it embody or represent the world of music. In a junk society that worships mediocrity, Tik Tok sensations and mindless conformity, the lure of a show that appeals to the absolute lowest common denominator like The Grammy Awards is just too tempting for the least discerning among us to resist. |
It was an enjoyable show. I agree with @gpgr4blu overall. Billie and Jon are true talents. |
I didn’t watch it this year, but in a recent previous year I too thought this is LCD stuff. American awards such as these will continue as long as there remain one or two worthy recipients. I’m in a judgmental but generous mood. |
Even during my 10 years in the music business in the 70's/80's, I never paid attention to the Grammies, but then I don't watch any other awards shows, either. It's not about whether I like the music or not, and I probably would like most of the music - it's that Art is not a contest!! I don't care about the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, either. I've got my own rock and roll hall of fame! |
