I know you are all too damn cool for the 2005 Grammy Awards; but don't you think they deserve a little thread action anyway?

Gag, I missed Fergie's abs, never mind the "medley." Still in pukeshock from Maroon5's Sting vs. Jerry Lewis. Gee this was a swell idea Matt. OMG! Border Collies on the Animal Planet's Agility Dog Show (pre-Westminster,which is tomorrow night) thank U J

Yes, Jerry Lee looks cadaverous, but I'm sure he'd kill each and every individual in the auditorium one-by-one if he could.

So did Bill Clinton, for best Spoken Word Album. The tally thus far:

Bill Clinton: 1
Usher: 0

-- m.e.a. (flpyrw...), February 14th, 2005.

Usher already won 3 awards that were announced before the televised ceremony.

If I didn't have deep suspicions about ILM's ability to recognize a good musical performance, it was cemented by the completely mental remarks being made about what must have been a Grammy opening in an alternate universe, as everyone in that opening medly was fucking awesome. So far, this is the first Grammy Awards where it looks like everyone's going to give a fantastic performance (esp. vocally).

Okay I realize the above is slightly undercut by U2 starting out with the moany slow song but Bono still sounds good.

Arrested Development is on, change to that. Just refresh this page occasionally: http://www.grammys.com/awards/grammy/47winners.aspx

Arrested Development guest-starring Martin Short = I'm not watching.

― Al (sitcom), Monday, 14 February 2005 01:43 (nineteen years ago) link

Dan, are you kidding? Gwen and Eve just sounded totally *lost* and without lung power.

― Michael Daddino (epicharmus), Monday, 14 February 2005 01:43 (nineteen years ago) link

i def. think the performances are quite good -- better than last years "lets throw them against the wall to see what sticks" haphazard collaborations.

Ray Charles has also won three non-televised Grammys, which makes me even more confident that he'll pick up some of the big awards.

this U2 song is good! I liked it when they played it on SNL too. why did they release such a crappy song as their 2nd single instead of this?

― Al (sitcom), Monday, 14 February 2005 01:44 (nineteen years ago) link

Jamie Foxx did not play that piano

― Alfred Soto (Alfred Soto), Monday, 14 February 2005 01:46 (nineteen years ago) link

That's one of the best U2 songs in recent memory, ruined by Bono's sombrero.

― Alfred Soto (Alfred Soto), Monday, 14 February 2005 01:46 (nineteen years ago) link

Quentin Tarantino is sitting next to the RZA.

OK, I have a short memory, but has there been a presentation duo or trio that lacked a movie star?

― Michael Daddino (epicharmus), Monday, 14 February 2005 01:47 (nineteen years ago) link

are you saying he didn't or he can't? I wasn't playing close attention to whether he was during that performance, but I remember it being a big deal that he was really playing in Ray.

(x-post, re: Jamie Foxx)

― Al (sitcom), Monday, 14 February 2005 01:48 (nineteen years ago) link

is the kill bill soundtrack up for something?

(x-post re: Q and Wu)

Don't give the rock award to the old people!

― Michael Daddino (epicharmus), Monday, 14 February 2005 01:48 (nineteen years ago) link

I love the sound of Penelope Cruz's voice when she says "American Idiot". Dreamy.

― MindInRewind (Barry Bruner), Monday, 14 February 2005 01:48 (nineteen years ago) link

Green Day are probably the youngest people in that category! would you prefer it went to Costello? (xp)

― Al (sitcom), Monday, 14 February 2005 01:49 (nineteen years ago) link

billy joe's nu-goth look is so hott.

― teeny (teeny), Monday, 14 February 2005 01:50 (nineteen years ago) link

No, I meant don't give it to Costello!

― Michael Daddino (epicharmus), Monday, 14 February 2005 01:50 (nineteen years ago) link

i sure hope green day mentions that they hate war

― miccio (miccio), Monday, 14 February 2005 01:50 (nineteen years ago) link

The only thing dangerous about Green Day these days is that eyeliner, which would get Billie Joe laughed out of my college cafeteria.

― Alfred Soto (Alfred Soto), Monday, 14 February 2005 01:51 (nineteen years ago) link

I guess they must like war, then.

― Michael Daddino (epicharmus), Monday, 14 February 2005 01:51 (nineteen years ago) link

I think Ellen was sitting next to Portia de Rossi, speaking of "Arrested Development."

― Josh in Chicago (Josh in Chicago), Monday, 14 February 2005 01:51 (nineteen years ago) link

actually remove the "sure." if they said something remotely inflammatory it would half-dignify their entrance into this circle

― miccio (miccio), Monday, 14 February 2005 01:51 (nineteen years ago) link

I was listening to Warning the other day and looking at the liner notes, and Billie Joe is definitely looking better these days than the chubby faced blond crewcut look he had in 2000.

― Al (sitcom), Monday, 14 February 2005 01:52 (nineteen years ago) link

Aren't they a couple?

― MindInRewind (Barry Bruner), Monday, 14 February 2005 01:52 (nineteen years ago) link

Jimmy and John Paul were sitting together!! Has there been a rapproachment?

Bill Frisell wins best jazz album, most deserved. Sundar will be happy.

― Stormy Davis (diamond), Monday, 14 February 2005 01:52 (nineteen years ago) link

Maybe he wears the eyeliner to keep the glare down, like football players.

― Josh in Chicago (Josh in Chicago), Monday, 14 February 2005 01:52 (nineteen years ago) link

war has been very very good to green day

― miccio (miccio), Monday, 14 February 2005 01:53 (nineteen years ago) link

Great! The CHEVY AD has a mash-up, and still we have medleys on the Grammys.

― Michael Daddino (epicharmus), Monday, 14 February 2005 01:53 (nineteen years ago) link

Green Day didn't thank the fans first. I'm insulted.

― Alfred Soto (Alfred Soto), Monday, 14 February 2005 01:53 (nineteen years ago) link

"Hot Stuff" is a better rock record than "American Idiot"

― Alfred Soto (Alfred Soto), Monday, 14 February 2005 01:54 (nineteen years ago) link

For a second I thought that RV ad was a commercial for night!

― Josh in Chicago (Josh in Chicago), Monday, 14 February 2005 01:54 (nineteen years ago) link

They should call her Queen Charisma.

― Josh in Chicago (Josh in Chicago), Monday, 14 February 2005 01:55 (nineteen years ago) link

if they haven't seen Taxi, I guess

― miccio (miccio), Monday, 14 February 2005 01:56 (nineteen years ago) link

Queen Charisma Vacuum.

― Josh in Chicago (Josh in Chicago), Monday, 14 February 2005 01:56 (nineteen years ago) link

God, I miss the days when the Grammys didnt even aim for alternative respectability. I want Hall & Oates and Kenny Loggins, dammit.

― Alfred Soto (Alfred Soto), Monday, 14 February 2005 01:56 (nineteen years ago) link

Man, Marc Anthony doesn't know how to fill out a shirt.

HE LOOKS LIKE FRED SOLINGER.

― Michael Daddino (epicharmus), Monday, 14 February 2005 01:57 (nineteen years ago) link

Set malfunction!

― Josh in Chicago (Josh in Chicago), Monday, 14 February 2005 01:57 (nineteen years ago) link

Is Marc Anthony supposed to look like a trashbag sack of shit? Is that part of the performance?

― MindInRewind (Barry Bruner), Monday, 14 February 2005 01:57 (nineteen years ago) link

I want Hall & Oates and Kenny Loggins, dammit.

A Clay Aiken sweep!

― miccio (miccio), Monday, 14 February 2005 01:58 (nineteen years ago) link

OMG. My abuela watches a telenovela modeled after this performance! this is so awesome!

― Alfred Soto (Alfred Soto), Monday, 14 February 2005 01:58 (nineteen years ago) link

So does this song have a plot? It looks like the set of a Telenovela.

― Josh in Chicago (Josh in Chicago), Monday, 14 February 2005 01:58 (nineteen years ago) link

Jennifer's a little flat. More than a little.

― Michael Daddino (epicharmus), Monday, 14 February 2005 01:58 (nineteen years ago) link

Jesus lord, god, jeebus.. J lo.. stop...

― Jay Smooth (jsmooth995), Monday, 14 February 2005 01:59 (nineteen years ago) link

wow, you guys hate Marc Anthony. he did play an unsympathetic character very convincingly in Man On Fire, though.

― Al (sitcom), Monday, 14 February 2005 01:59 (nineteen years ago) link

I'm so hammered right now. Marc Antony looks and sing like Hayden Christensen.

― Alfred Soto (Alfred Soto), Monday, 14 February 2005 02:00 (nineteen years ago) link

Aw, naw...Marc Anthony's fine. Least he can sing!

― Michael Daddino (epicharmus), Monday, 14 February 2005 02:00 (nineteen years ago) link

Oh God, Dan must be DYING out there!

― Michael Daddino (epicharmus), Monday, 14 February 2005 02:00 (nineteen years ago) link
