Well, here is what I know as of now concerning the little NWO-related aspect of this year's Grammy awards.

1. Franz Ferdinand performed maybe a third of "Take Me Out" in the opening sequence of the show (and the video is nominated for best ? video), although they lost best "alternative" act (Wilco won that category).

2. The Talking Heads box set "Once In a Lifetime" won for best limited edition box set packaging.

Ditto Kimiiii, I just about lost it that year Sting sold out and sang with puff diddy, in the tribute to that biggy guy that was killed. Maybe that was the MTV awards. Ahhh, who cares, as long as i have my ipod [:D]

god, some of you people sound like such old fogies. i think the grammies last night were some of the best ever, as i think music is finally turning around and becoming fun again, with an emphasis on style and fashion and old school panache. alicia keys an

It depends on what kind of music you're talking about. Pop? Rap? Rock? A lot of it is becoming watered down over time so thats the basis behind the tone in the posts.

No anger in mine, only feelings of full grown bordom.

Cool! Some really good friends of mine won a Grammy for Latin Rock/Alternative Album. Half the people on this board would hate them, but for the open-minded, I recommend picking up their stuff. The band is Ozomatli and they fluctuate between being a ni
