I think I am in the minority here. For the first time I really enjoyed the grammy awards.

. I agree that India Arie was robbed. I think that here album has much more substance than Alicia Keys. They are both talented women and they come to the music spectrum from different angles and they should have been rewarded equally. Unfortunately like someone already mentioned, Motown is HORRIBLE in their marketing. They truly need to take a lesson from Clive Davis.
Mary RIPPED it!!!

...NUF SAID!!
Nelly...Ghetto!!
Enigma..oops I mean Pink does look like a poster child for an STD

.
Beyonce and 'em sounded very nice but I was a little tired of seeing Beyonce shaking that weave and trying to upstage everyone.
I love OUTKAST as much as the next person but Dre was OUT OF CONTROL with that pink outfit and those SHINE AZZ SHOES

!!
Alicia's performance was the BOMB...and I especially loved that flamenco dancer!!!!
I couldn't help but be tickled over the PWT/Bluegrass version of the WU-TANG Clan. I admit I do love the song that one and the movie O Brother Where Art Thou. Being an open minded person, it was nice to see this type of music get a little props.
Finally, I really loved Billy Joel and Tony Bennett's tribute to New York. I am an old soul and a NATIVE NEW YORKER. The song was also sentimental because it reminded me of listening to old record with my aunt as a kid.

AND THEY REALLY NEED TO BRING BACK ROSIE!!!
