I was watching Food Channel's Sabotage show called Cutthroat and reading tweets at the same time. I read a tweet that finally made me turn to the see the Grammies after all. I have not watched them in years as I am not really very fond of the music industry any longer. It ignores really important music for what i consider to be trash or junk music, and I find that to be a failing in an otherwise dead but financially lucrative industry. People love trash it seems and Americans prove it year after year making billionaires out of the trash peddlers.
But somebody tweeted about Lorde winning an award for her song about Royals, which is actually a song of envy and resignation. So I decided to watch to see if I could catch that segment since I am in a time zone which is delayed.
Buzzfeed made much of the opening act which featured Beyonce and her spouse JayZ. The actual scene which Time also provided a video for those who missed it is not nearly as interesting as is the analysis given by the Buzzfeed horny guy. Feature by feature, Beyonce's act is broken into segments so that we can get a good look at those long legs, that protruding ass, that shaved Venus mound...there is no doubt that headlines from one network stating that the show was too "filthy" for CBS because it was censored and bleeped according to the article. Married whores on stage is what it should be called if one is honest, as this couple is selling and marketing sex in a soft porn way that is making them super rich...
But the Buzzfeed article is funny. The guy who wrote it admitted that he had a body explosion (climax) at one point in her seduction. I asked him if he had used a towel...I wonder if he got the point!
I could imagine him rubbing his hands up and down his shaft while drooling over her madly. He was really taken in by this young sex goddess.
It is in sharp contrast to one of the final acts in the show, Same Love, which of course is for the young gay following...And to top it off, Latifah had to be officially marrying 34 couples on stage which is said to have made Keith Urban shed a tear...golly, gee whiz, so much sentiment over watching the strangest marriage performed at a typically exhibitionist, hedonistic award show is mind boggling to me. Crying...puleeeeeeeze! It is only a show! I can't take seriously that s**t ( the bleeped out word for the Beyonce JayZ act) Can you believe it? CBS bleeps a word...but lets the foggy stage cover the Here I am act that Beyonce performed as she stretched her legs wide to show her shaven mound...I am shaking my head.
We had a joke called Here Tiz years ago...Her act acted that joke out very well....
Never mind! That is my reaction to the grammies. There was music, but nobody cares about that anymore. Only the gyrations on stage, the girl swinging in the air, and the bobbing head job that Taylor Swift did count...Music....It was so loud that nobody could hear it except for the old-timers who performed their gigs: Country musicians headed by really aged Willie Nelson, Merle Haggard, Kris Kristofferson, and Blake Shelton (young guy who didn't quite belong in that oldies but goodies crowd). And Paul Mc Cartney and Ringo Starr did at least let their vocals be heard loud and clear...otherwise, ti was all noise!
One final part of the grammies that was good was the Obituary segment...learning all the artists who have passed into tomorrow land was well done and respectful at least.
Classical music....well, it has passed over to Rainbow Bridge it appears...nowhere to be seen!
Romantic songs...gee, didn't hear anything that sounded romantic to me...it too has become invisible or on its last tunes...
The Music Industry needs to take a good long look at itself! It is truly dull and tepid because of its only being noise and clatter...
The scales of justice is that all music has gone flat!
Remembering an old autograph to me years ago...Don't b sharp, Don't b flat. Just B natural.
Until we meet again...
