GOD SHOW ME THE WAY, BECAUSE THE DEVIL'S TRYIN' TO BREAK ME DOWN: Your complete list of Grammy winners is here, if you want to discuss.
As an awards show, it was, as always, meh, and feel free to big out the biggest disappointments of the night -- including, but not limited to the fact that Britney Spears and Zach Braff now have Grammys, but the Talking Heads and Jimi Hendrix don't.
However, as a live music showcase, it was, again, outstanding: from the Alicia Keys/Jamie Foxx duet on "Georgia On My Mind" (yeah, I was surprised too) to Green Day bringing the punk to Kanye West representing for God to the James Brown/Usher duet, there was something for everyone, and even the slightly lame moments (John Mayer, "Across the Universe", Tim McGraw's third performance) didn't seem to last very long.
Biggest props of the night, however, go to Melissa Etheridge, for her emotional tribute to Janis Joplin with Joss Stone, but mostly, just for being there.
