First the writing assignment --- he like it, he really liked it (The Instructor that is!). I received really positive feedback and some terrific constructive criticism. I can't wait for the next assignment and also to keep working on this piece as maybe there is a BIGGER story in here trying to 'get out'.
On to the GRAMMY's. I think this is by far the best award show out there for one reason --- they really don't waste time on the AWARDS; they have turned it into a massive concert with great artists and then they mix them up and throw them together. Sometimes it works and other times it doesn't but the energy is amazing.
My favorites from the night --- the biggest highlight for me was Sugarland performing their song STAY and then joining Adele to sing CHASING PAVEMENT. Personally both songs 'speak to me' and Sugarland has long been one of my 2 or 3 favorite country groups, well they are a DUO. If you don't know them, the lead singer did the duet with Jon Bon Jovi on "who says you can't go home again" or something like that --- her name is Jennifer Nettles. As for the Adele song, I just LOVE her voice and when you listen to her it is nothing like her physical presence. The song is also very inspirational to me right now. I also really liked Al Green with Justin Timberlake, Boys II Men and Keith Urban. Speaking of JT, I officially have a MAN CRUSH on the guy. Forget the 'boy band' stuff, this guy is SERIOUSLY talented and articulate. His duet with TI was the other highlight for me.
Almost forgot COLDPLAY - they are genius, love them and LOVED the shout out to The Beatles with the colorful jackets, a la Sergeant Peppers, while watching I was wondering what Gayle, Vicki and Dina were thinking....hmmmm....
As for the bad (at least for me) --- two performances I was looking forward to disappointed me. The first was Taylor Swift and Miley Cyrus. I actually let Cydney stay up with me just to watch this one and it missed; even Cyd looked at me and said 'ewwwwww'. The second was Katy Perry. I really like Katy and I saw the Katie Couric interview with her and it made me like her more but last night she was off (both in key and performance). I think the 'I Kissed a Girl' song is CUTE and maybe she HAD to do it, but she has MUCH BETTER stuff and I think she could have just gone out there and performed instead of doing a 'show' where clearly the physical antics hurt her performance.
That's my recap, thought it would fit in well after my last post on music.
Next writing assignment gets posted tonight at MIDNIGHT - I am psyched!
