Is anybody else as out of touch as I am with today's music? I tried watching a little bit of the Grammys last night, just to educate myself a little bit, and I couldn't do it... it was all crap. I think I made through about 1/2 an hour.
I will say, that I've always liked that "Wall of Sound" stuff, mostly from the songs in the 60's, so the Amy Winehouse thing isn't too bad - I see the appeal in it, and I've always been a big fan of the Foo Fighters, but everything else... junk.
I must be old.

Re: Grammys
Geez... what a waste. I feel guilty for starting this thread and having Amy "Freaking" Winehouse put him over the top. Sorry, IS.

No more fitting thread then the Grammy Award thread for this !Irishmans Shanty wrote:Never misinterpret effort for accomplishment as they are two very different things. Nevertheless, I stoically accept the kind words.

I figured that you, being the youngest of the high ranking members of the bored, would come in here and blast away at this thread and tell us all how we're out of touch and that Kanye West is the bees knees.EREmpireStrikesBack wrote:This might be the best transition I have ever seen a thread make, much less one started by Govs. Goes from crap like Amy Winehouse to IS making his 3k. I'm proud to see the 'bored' might be turning the corner.
Damn... that phrase isn't going to help.
