So, last nights Grammy Awards were a wonderful suprise. The performances were amazing, the speeches of the winners were heartfelt and the Academy of Music seemed to really get it right this year. As for my C-C-Drammy predictions, I did pretty well. In the 4 major categories, I guessed 2 winners. I was correct in picking Kings of Leon's "Use Somebody" as the Record of the Year. I also guessed Beyonce's "Single Ladies" would take down the Single of the Year. In the Album of the Year category, I thought Lady Gaga was impossible to beat... but youngster Taylor Swift was not to be taken lightly. She cruised to a victory in that category, suprising many people with winning the biggest category of the night. I was also incorrect about Keri Hilson winning Best New Artist, as she lost in that category to the Zack Brown Band (Who the F$#K is That). Overall, CCD did pretty well in the major categories and were happy with the way everything shook out.
The performances were great, starting with Lady Gaga and Elton John and finishing with Drake, Lil Wayne, and Eminem ft. Travis Barker. These two performances were awesome and made watching the show worth the 3 1/2 hours it encompassed. Mary J Blige and Andrea Boccelli killed it, as did Beyonce. The tribute to Michael Jackson was nice, and The Black Eyed Peas also repped hard. I would have liked to see Jay-Z up there, but there is always next year. Signing of from the Grammys, we'll see you at the next awards show with our predictions....
