Dear Grammys,

Seriously!

A 7 year old Daft Punk song wins?

And the other nominees include Cyndi Lauper and Kylie Minogue?!

fuck the Grammys.

huh?

is that because it was on a kanye west song?

it would be a different 'live' version i suppose

If Manilow didn't win traditional pop award for "in the swing of christmas" there is no justice in the world

are the grammys even worth moaning about, let alone watching?

if you watch the grammys (or any awards ceremony), then you automatically forfeit the right to complain about it

/thread

just drop the 'r' in the award title and they have sorted all their problems.

Regardless of all the rote 'award ceremonies are shit' responses, what is the reason that a song released ages ago would be nominated for an award now?

The Grammys are a joke.

It feels good to say that.

so it looks like kanye did it first

no, im pretty sure they won for best album, and it had nothing to do with kanye west.

yeah i was just being silly

They won Best Electronic/Dance Album for Alive 2007, and Best Dance Recording for "Harder Better Faster Stronger." This track was actually re-released as a single for Alive 2007 as a live version (http://www.discogs.com/release/1196269), which explains why it was eligible for a Grammy. Still, I agree with everyone that it is retarded to give an award to a song that is essentially 8 years old.

Also, agree with everything else in the thread... Grammys are stupid, Cyndi Lauper lol, etc...

I think the last time I watched it was when they gave the first heavy metal grammy to Jethro Tull.

wtf is 'urban'

old people lol

I don't think I've every watched/know what's won the grammys. The last time I watched the Brits was the '89 one with Samantha Fox and a tall bloke. and I don't think I've watched any other music awards things.

I am still surprised that Sean and Rob did not win a Grammy.

don't worry, metallica swooped in and won that award away from slipknot and dragonforce.

bit form the start of rubber jonny on the big screen to a collective "wtf who?" from the packed arena

from what i remember it was a between albums year... when was rubber jonny released.... it was then i think

as far as headfuck TV moments go, that was nearly as weird as wen tadfish started banging on about "go plastic by squarepusher" every time he was on screen in an episode of neighbours... this was around the same time that he had an mc303 and strted djing at that club everybody goes to in erinsborough while he was still a schoolkid

lol @ all the previous "best dance" winners
