Wow. The Grammys were pretty surprising tonight. Not that U2 won practically every major category; but that most of the performances were pretty good.
The Gorillaz were cool--but I was spoiled by the fact that I've seen it already done in the MTV-Europe awards.
Madonna? Boy, does she look old in HD.
U2's Vertigo was okay, although Bono's getting a bit old as well. His voice didn't meld well with Mary J. Blige in One, but it gave me goosebumps anyway. Too bad Larry Mullen, Jr. was cut off by the NARAS president. Boo! Who wants to hear a suit when we could hear Larry talk?
Keith Urban was surprisingly good--and I hate country music.
Happy for Kelly, sad for Gwen. She looked like she was about to cry when they were going through the nominees for album of the year.
Fun to hear Helter Skelter from Paul McCartney. I remember first hearing it on Rattle and Hum: "This is a song Charles Manson stole from the Beatles, we're stealing it back." Ah, memories. =) Sir Paul also kicked in Numb/Encore. Although he looked kinda awkward trying to fit in with the young 'uns.
Jennifer Love-Hewitt looked a bit creepy in HD. Honestly, her face seems like a perfect triangle, kind of alien-looking. I liked her better when she was nice and round--Fergie looked a lot better.
Oh, and although Kanye West is annoying, his Gold Digger number was amazing. Credit goes to Jaime Foxx, though.
Randy Jackson! Playing bass! Sly Stone was all sorts of scary; Joss Stone was hot. So was Ciara. Maroon 5 looked stiff and uncomfortable.
Did I mention Madonna looked old in HD?
