Editor's note: This list would have totally been a lot longer if my PVR didn't wank out and only record 1/3 of the show.
1. Alicia Keys, joined later by John Mayer, when she performed
Nothing. The next time I fall in love, that is totally the song I'm going to sing.
2. Vince Gill, accepting the best country album award for
These Days, completely ignoring the
People magazine ultimate fan up on stage. And then, looking at Kanye West: "I just got an award from a Beatle. That happened to you yet, Kanye? Kidding."
3. The dudes ripping on the grand pianos with the orchestra.
4. Rihanna, holding her hand out to stop Jay-Z from talking during her acceptance speech for best rap song collaboration.
5. Amy Winehouse performing
You Know I'm No Good/Rehab (Ballsy choice, that
Rehab, no?). The stunned look on her face when she found out she won Record of the Year via satellite. Then, during her acceptance speech, when she thanked her husband: "For my Blake, incarcerated."
Other comments:
Josh Groban. Zzzzzz.
Jerry Lee Lewis and Little Richard: Not the two guys I was praising for ripping on the grand pianos.
Loved Fergie's strapless yellow dress.
Will.i.am's Grammy Award rap:
Interesting.
