49th Grammy Awards


I'm a little disappointed over this year's awards. Not because of who won but who didn't.

Of course the big surprise of the night for me, maybe not for the rest of the music industry, the Dixie Chicks. Wow, I didn't expect them to sweep just about every category.

My disappointment, Corrine Bailey Rae, I went into the awards pulling for my girl Corrine. She walked away empty handed. So what girlfriend you had a fabulous performance with John Legend and John Mayer (Best Pop Vocal Album). Stevie Wonder thought so too. These three performers are smokin hot. They are here for the duration.

I had hoped to say Corrine Bailey Rae won Best New Artist that went to Carrie Underwood who I also love. She looked fabulous last night performing alongside Rascal Flatts-she only gets better each time I see her. I loved that green dress she wore when she was paying tribute to Bob Wills.

Now let's talk about performances Gnarls Barkley. Strange. I didn't expect anything different. I liked their pilot costume performance of 'Crazy'. It was a little crazy. If you've ever gone to their website you'll see they're a little eccentric, and of course their c-d is proof of that. I of course love their music. No complaints here. My favorite from this performance the chewing gum Gnarls Barkley was chewing.

I loved all of the rest of the performers I was just busy around the house doing things. So they didn't have my full attention. I'll just be honest. So hats off to the winners and better luck to the nominees next year.
