Grammy Review

For some odd reason, I was drawn to the Grammy telecast...knowing that many of the now music stars are virtually unknown to moi...thus, I get to see what the 'big' commotion is all about...if there is such a thang, anymore...not sure of this, and maybe need a fact check, but...the hostess, Alicia Keys...was the first lady host...hmmm, really?...

She did fine...let me say, that the entire show was too casual...if that is possible for music...but, that's OK...the highlights were not the winners of the Awards, but the singers, singing...the best?...the two legends that they honored...Dolly Parton and Diana Ross...each sang their own stuff...Dolly had accompaniment...Diana did not...each had strong voices and were on KEY!...

Head scratching minutes for some of the performers...like who are they?...which I expected...and more so, why would anyone buy this stuff?...why Travis Scott has any followers, is beyond me...JLo did great, but one might think that maybe, just maybe, that a Motown star or group, would be the performers for honoring MOTOWN...and, for sure, no lip-syncing should ever be allowed...oh yea, what was Lady GaGa on?...

Just one note on the actual award winners...well, two notes...have you ever seen the video for the song of the year winner?...Childish Gambino's?...you have GOT to be kidding me...and the album (?) winner was Kacey Musgrave's...really?...

Alicia doing some covers, while playing 2 pianos was way cool...Dan and Shay actually singing, real well...Khloe and her sis, were great...and the 3 gals paying tribute to Aretha were spot on...

I would have loved to hear someone do the Dolly written song...'I Will Always Love You'...would have been a perfect time to do so...

And the night was mysteriously politically free...well sorta...but, at the beginning of the event...something stood out...when Michele Obama came out with 3 other ladies...her ovation was chilling...listen, kids...I keep telling ya, that if, and make that IFF(math terminology)...she wanted to run for Prez...and combat the orange ogre...she could and she would WIN!...

Gotta run, have golf this am...BTW, Lefty has 2 more holes to go, to win at Pebble Beach...
