I would like to start of by thanking God for giving me the strength to get through some of the awards, for the drink in my hand(s)....Because without the captain, I would have had to listen to those whinny Dixie Chicks all night, and finally for some of the live performances...without you the grammys would have been the worst rated watched show all night!!! (tear falls down my cheek).
What makes me sick, is the fact that I bought their latest album because I liked their number 14 track "I hope" which had nothing to do with what they said about the President and nothing to do with any controversy...but the reason they won any of their awards was purely because they bashed the President. They have some talent, but not enough to beat out the people they did!!! And the awards they won were not because of their talent but rather because they do not know how to shut their mouths. They know how to open their mouths and have someone ELSE write their songs about it!
Take the Best Country Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocal category...Dixie chicks one with their song "not ready to make nice" and how many people have heard of that??? Now, there's the song "Boondocks" by Little Big Town, which was radio played to death...obviously it was a good song and everytime you go to a bar or turn on the radio which one could you listen to over again??? My pick goes to Little Big Town.
Now...Carrie Underwood, AMAZING talent. Yes I am focusing on the Country singers, because that is what I listen to, just deal with it. I loved her live performances and I bought her cd, because she has an incredible voice! She has the spunk (is that word still used?), looks, voice and talent! Hell, her award speech was even short and sweet...a natural talent...she was born to win!
Does anyone else find it kind of unusual that everytime a group/artist performs they win the next grammy??? Come on lets try to spice it up a little...

No offense to anyone who might be a fan of the Dixie Chicks but I have to agree. They are getting all this attention because they bashed the president. All I have to say is "Shut up and sing."
Who ever you are, I could not agree more! I just want to listen to the music, it's not right for a group to win because of something they said...and hell I like the music...
