What a night. I have to admit… For one of the first times ever… I was in INSANE agreement with the winners of the 2012 Grammys. Adele (Best EVERYTHING including album, record, song and performance) and Bon Iver (Best New Artist) are probably the most played artists in my iTunes player right now… So I applaud the committee… or the judge… or the fans… or whoever the people are that decide who wins these things.
However, Bon Iver is nowhere near a new artist, so I’m not sure how missed the mark on their homework for that project.
Best Country/Group Performance and Best Folk Album went to the Civil Wars from Nashville, TN. These guys are another HUGELY underrated act, that I am SO glad were recognized at this year’s awards. Way to go guys! I would say that this is drive in the car, making dinner, have friends over, really anytime music!
Best Bluegrass Album went to Alison Krauss & Union Station’s “Paper Airplanes” albums, which is another amazing record of 2012. This one is more of a “listen while I cook dinner and feel homey” album. So good, and always remind me of home. My dad said once that she sings like a violin. I agree. Gorgeous.
And then of course… There were clothes. Here are a few of my favs!

Really? You can wear blue from head to toe, including your hair color, and still stop traffic in a good way? what can’t you do, K Perry?

Gorgeous… LOVED this dress.
And that’s all I got folks! I hope you had a great weekend and are ready for the LOVELIEST week of them all!
TTFN,
Adele deserved to win everything that she did! She's so talented. I love Katy Perrys' dress and Taylor Swifts'. Everything was just so gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteBest Grammy night I've seen in a long time. So, so, so good.
ReplyDeleteOK, but Foo Fighters over Mumford or God forbid my beloved Decemberists? I say nay-nay.
ReplyDeleteloved katy perry's dress!!
ReplyDeleteHannah and I cracked up over the seating too! So happy Adele won! I was a little distracted by her gum chewing (see FB status) She thankfully spit it out before the big award, and of course, before she sang. (kinda cute and funny when she mentioned her runny nose - "oh, ah go' a li'l bi' o' snot")
ReplyDeleteYou didn't mention the Boss, so I've got to give honorable mention to Bruce. He has still got it.
Nicki Minaj: gag. hated it. Mute. Time for potty breaks.
Honoring Whitney Houston: lovely. I got all teary.
I admit I always enjoy Taylor Swift and LOVED the way her song was staged.
Glad the Civil Wars were given time.
Lady Antebellum: meh. They're Georgia. They're cute. We're happy.
Foo Fighters. Really? I've got to listen to them again. Had no idea.
Our household sat watching with unopened school books, open laptops and... didn't really feel too guilty.
Thanks for letting me "twalk". Blog comments - fun! xo
