2022 Grammy Award Show?


There was some interesting stuff on this show and some great artists.  Any comment?   Wonder how many of you made an effort to watch or look up who won what.

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!
