Hey just a little report from the inside-
My dad's a member of NARAS (national academy recording arts and sciences) and everyone at all the after parties had the same comments we did!!
Biggest complaints of the night-
Ashanti's reputation preceded her. Song and setup was too Whitney Houston wannabe.
Faith Hill has no talent, something most people have known for years but she was not someone they wanted to perform in the first place!!! Most people were upset about that.
No host??? I know the economy's bad, but come on....
Norah Jones. Yeah, the Grammy's are supposed to be about quality, so she's one of the very few examples where that was rewarded. But when she got up to accept best album, 5 or 6 people went with her. like, this is this songwriter, this guy produced, this guy was a co=songwriter, etc.....a lot of people at the awards were kind of confused b/c if you think about it, she's almost as packaged as Avril Levigne...I mean, her image and everything is all her, but 4 songwriters for one song??? Playing the piano w/a very generic, repetitive jazz song does not a Grammy winner make.
