The Grammys

I didn't grow up watching awards shows.

(Let's be honest, I didn't grow up watching anything except PBS.)

So once I was old enough to make my own TV decisions, I often binge on semi-inappropriate shows.

Oh you know, just watch them.

Anyway. I love me some awards shows. Sometimes.

Especially the performances.
That's what I watch for.

(AKA I could care less about crap like the Golden Globes). 

Anyway.

So the Grammys were on last night.

Here are the tweets that went out:

"Maybe if I don't say Taylor Swift's name she'll disappear and I can enjoy the rest of the Grammys."
I really dislike T Swift. And the fact that they ALWAYS show her ALL THE FREAKING TIME.

So.

"But really, Hunter Hayes is adorable."

He sang this real sweet song about how life won't always suck as a teenager. He didn't do too great on vocals, but he had a lot of heart and just is a real sweet kid.

"T Swift should stick to sitting down performances, minus the hair flips. Even her hair and makeup were tastefully done for once."

She sang one of her slower songs, and was just at the piano the whole time, and didn't have crazy hair or makeup or outfits, and no crazy background dancers or dance moves. But then she did these crazy hair flips (she's so effing dramatic) and then I was like.... Ugh. But for the most part, it was ok. 

"I can't even... @Pink is so amazing. Her vocals, her lyrics, her dance technique, all flawless. Proud to be a fan."

P!nk sang "Try" while doing some crazy air acrobatics, and then did part of the dance from her music video for that song. And then Nate Ruess came out and started sing his part of "Give Me a Reason" and they dueted and it was awesome. All of it was awesome. I think P!nk is beautiful and powerful and has a great voice and I just love her.

"Loved seeing the Vocal Point music video for their cover of Brave on the #grammys during the nomincations for best pop solo performance. #byu"

So they started this thing that when the were showing the nominations they showed cover music videos instead of the original artist's video. And obviously they showed Vocal Point's video and it was so awesome.

Also, I didn't see this live, but Macklemore and Ryan Lewis sang their song One Love, and then Queen Latifah came out and married 35 couples (homo- and heterosexual) and at first I thought it was dumb, and then it was actually kind of sweet (except for it was still weird because it was the Grammys) but mostly I liked it. Because good for them.

So there you go.
My thoughts on the 2014 Grammy awards.
