I'mma let you finish but...

Lady Gaga had one of the best albums of all time! Well, maybe not of all time but she should have won over Taylor Swift tonight. Her album "The Fame" is really the only album that a female pop star made that I have actually listened to from beginning to end. I can truthfully say I like every song on the album and it was worth the $10 I spent on it on iTunes. 
As someone who listens to a truly diverse catalogue of music I truly think this was Gaga's year. I really really wanted to hear her acceptance speech because you never know what your going to get from her.

this thread's title is way too late

" expectance speech "

       

Lady Gaga is a pretty interesting person. I find her persona pretty intriguing and her music is weird enough that I don't immediately dismiss it as pop.
 
Also, why does this thread exist.

I hate Lady Gaga.... and this is my opinion but her music really really sucks. Plus that bitch is crazy.

How about this "Her music is terrible and so is her personality."

There ya go.

Wow not one positive post in this thread yet. I can't say I'm surprised though.

While I am most definitely happy for Mrs. Future Ex-VinceNotVance Taylor Swift on her (dare I say Epic) win at the Grammy's tonight, it kinda just showed why the Grammys are now completely irrelevant. First off, now Taylor's really got nowhere else to go but down. I love the girl (seriously, I love the girl) but when you accomplish so much at a young age, you're kinda boned for the rest of your life.
 
Anyway, on the Grammy's being irrelevant...remember back when the Academy (the other Academy) nominated hip, new artists that transcended the mold of "popular music artists"? Like Gnarls Barkley, Lupe Fiasco, LCD Soundsystem, hell, Herbie Hancock won Best Album two years back for a Jazz tribute record!
 
The nominees for Best Album are anything but. Popular albums, sure? Best? FUCK NO. Cookie-cutter music? Definitely.
The Grammys will never get it right. It's about ass-kissing and ratings. Whatever attempts they make to stay relevant have the opposite effect.

" @VinceNotVance: I agree with all of that. These kinds of award shows are just popularity contests. "

I really like Lady Gaga for what she is, however, I wish the Grammy's would ADMIT that they're just a big marketing tool for music sales similar to how American Idol and shows like that are. It's used to stimulate music sales, nothing else. There are really no 'awards' for music that carry any validity as the Grammy's have NEVER meant shit. 
 
Pitchfork's top 100 songs of 2009 list carries more weight with most music listeners than a Grammy.

/me facepalms at the dumbing down the general music consumer. 
 
We moved on from hair metal to grunge to alternative to this shit...
 
And to think we almost seemed OK in the early to mid nineties.
 
FUCK.

Allow me to be the 15th person to reiterate that the Grammys are a joke and that nobody should actually care about them.

" "The Grey Album" aka best mash-up of all time ever, Danger Mouse? "

Im just gonna quote the great Trent Reznor of nine inch nails, heres a tweet he made the other day.
 
"The Grammys=the old guard/ old media propping up their puppets trying to convince the outside world they're relevant."

Taylor Swift? Lady Gaga? This is a world a million miles from the music I listen to.

 
LADY GaGa IS A MAN!!!!!!!!!

I take it you haven't encountered Wu Tang vs The Beatles? "

I turned on 3 different songs by lady gaga... half way through on each of them I had to turn it off... it was very annoying.
