"Kiss Like Your Kiss" is a horrible song -- it's nearly as bad as "Jailhouse Tears" (sorry, I'm in a shitty mood today....). :x

I can't recall if this has been mentioned anywhere, but it should be noted that this year's Grammy Awards are for work released between September 1, 2009 to September 30, 2010, and since National Ransom was released after September 30, it won't eligible until next year.

Most satisfied to see Arcade Fire take home the best album award for "The Suburbs"- quite deserving and they did seem genuinely surprised by their selection. Also nice to see them close out the show with some pure joy.

Equally nice to see Sir Mick hold a room with minimum props, smoke machines, flashing lights, etc.- just sheer showmanship. That was not a near seventy year old gallivanting on that stage!

The sad moment was Dylan's attempt at singing. Sadly, I am now in agreement with the WSJ and agree it is time to come off the eternal concert tour. This was in a hall with acoustics and strong electronic systems to carry his voice. He simply no longer has one at least physically, as he can still write amazing songs. I was embarrassed for him. That is what you get now and it is worse when compounded with a bad sound system and the poor acoustics of the average performance hall.

Agree about Arcade Fire and Mick. I liked the Dylan appearance, mainly for the sheer joy on the faces of Mumford and Sons and The Avett Bros. I put both on Dime for those interested. The Arcade Fire songs are also available. All in glorious HD:
