Sam Smith conquers Grammys with four top awards

Sam Smith conquers Grammys with four top awards Look man, we’re sorry you sound like a constipated Michael McDonald in a Morrissey wig. But that’s no reason to go off and screw up a perfectly good Tom Petty song.

  • Is the Grammys still on? I gave that up when it became the liberal platform for the insane asshats.

  • Last time I watched the Grammy's was in the early 80's...So who is that guy in the top picture? The Emmy's, Grammy's, Oscars, Peoples choice and all the rest are just a bunch of idiots giving themselves or their friends awards. They are all participation trophies for people who think they are important. After Obama won the Nobel for doing nothing, I could care less who gets an award for anything.

    Now the Medal of Honor means something, the Grammy's, who cares...

    • And they are a waste of airtime. Put them on the internet for the idiots and don't subject the rest of us to the idiocy.

    • Al Gore won for Spoken Word 1 year for his fiction book "An inconvenient Truth", which was almost as bad as Jethro Tull winning over Metallica for best metal album.

  • i can only allow myself one hi-pitched male singer per lifetime, and that one was Freddie Mercury. so, unfortunately, this guy's gotta go or at least get himself a sex change before i take him seriously.

    • I have nothing against guys with insane vocal range, but the music has to be interesting, & Sam Smith is boring. Freddie Mercury was a legend, a pitch perfect vocalist, & 1 of music's greatest fronts. Congrats to Smith on all the Grammy success, but he's boring. He also won Best New Artist, which has been more of a curse then a blessing over the years.

      Also, the show went downhill after AC/DC opened the show. They are the biggest band in the world for reason, & outside of Paul McCartney, nobody who took the stage could come near AC/DC. Period.

      • Currently most pop artists "sing" in avery limited,about 6 noterange. Guys dres it up with falsetton,girlsdotthe black wandering all over the scale bit. Noone seems to have the chops to actually sing. The all suck,Beyonce suks more thanmost. Her songs, eventhenewly written pieces,are a constant repitionofperhaps 2-3 musical phrases, while she does exercises to keep men and Gays attention. Truly notworth listening, let alone watching.

  • Yeah some rubbish about about Beyonce being an artist, I guess, unlike the guy that won. As if shaking your rump to samples lifted from the likes of James Brown and Curtis Mayfield (I'm guessing again, I don't listen to enough teenybopper music to know what her songs borrow from) puts you in the same league as them. Really though its the grammys. The whole enterprise is an even bigger joke than Kanye is.

    • But, it takes a real artist to be able to lift those samples and use them without using enough to be sued for plagiarism.

      • LOL. I'm sure mixing those samples takes a good bit of skill. Of course it can still be argued if that should count as art (I can go that far) or those that do that sort of thing exclusively should be considered musicians (I wouldn't go that far, but I wouldn't consider most people performing in popular bands to be real musicians anyway even if they play an instrument) but Beyonce doesn't (so far as I know) do even that.

  • So I read where Kanye charged the stage again to protest a white person winning best album. Is he the biggest jackass who ever lived?
