2012 Grammy Awards

Rolling Stone trashed Led Zeppelin I and gave five stars to Mick Jagger's last solo album.

 

Hey, when you're right, you're right.

 

As far as "21" goes, I don't know if they are right or not. I haven't listened to it in its entirety. Just heard the same singles everyone has, which are really good. I'll have to listen to the album and see what I think.

 

Don't even get me started on the reviews Yoko Ono has gotten over the years...

 

Unrelated, this is a great line about Kary Perty from Jones in that piece.

Katy Perry appeared twice, also, sort of. First, an impersonator appeared as Perry and then, with all the smoothness of a Gob Bluth illusion, the lights went out and the real Perry reëmerged, wrapped in something that made an attractive woman look like an off-market brand of string cheese.

You ever see "Fawlty Towers," the show John Cleese did after Monty Python? Adele sounds EXACTLY like Sybil Fawlty. Even looks a little like her, too.

 

Why did Rhianna even bother carrying a mic? She wasn't even holding it up during a good part of her song.

 

I think "21" is definitely more than a modest album. It's a really good album from start to finish, but I do agree with those who think she has something better in her. Also, while "21" is the better album, I prefer a couple of the songs on "19" to anything on "21" because they don't feel quite so polished and finely produced.

 

The End was pretty cool. I didn't watch & am not really into the contemporary music scene. Anything else I should make it my business to see?

 

Absolutely! Spot on! Also could have passed for someone hanging out at the Rover's Return on Coronation St.

Still not sure what to make of Adele. Great voice, yes, but I can just as easily see her cleaning up at the Grammy's every year as appearing on the next season of I'm A Celebrity, Get Me Out Of Here!

 

A music critic gave her a wedding ring he could keep?

 

The Glen Campbell tribute was pretty cool.

The Beach Boys reunion was kind of a mixed bag. It's simultaneously heartwarming and heartbreaking to see Brian Wilson perform now.
