Is Dustin Hoffman stoned??? (Grammy critique & possible spoilers)

[WillyJ]

I think everyone there is stoned to the gills on something!!!





I can't say I've heard of that Avril Lavigne before, but I liked that song a lot!!

 

[Krisu]

Wish I could have seen the show but DS has the remote so that means.........Food Network!! oh wait, he just clicked on Bruce!!

 

[Saffron]

Brrrrrrrrrruuuuuuuuuce!

 

[Krisu]

What's with Eraka Badu (sp?)? I probably never heard her speak before! What size do you think she wears??

 

[WillyJ]

Almost everyone on the show has been like that Krisu!!


Okay, Ed Bradley is on. . if he starts babbling then I'm going to be frightened. .

 

[Saffron]

Ooooooooooohhhh! That BeeGees tribute is awful!!!!!!

 

[WillyJ]

Okay, Ed didn't fumble around like he'd been sucking on the backstage bong, but he definitely read the Bee Gee tribute like he was late for a bus. .


The kindest thing I can say about N'Syncs performancve was that is was brief. . .


Bringing out the two surviving Gibb brothers and presenting the honorary Grammy though was very touching and a class move. .

 

[Dan Murphy]

That M&M guy is enough to make you turn the channel. UGH!!!!! I do like most music, but.......

 

[Krisu]

OMG!! What's Aretha wearing???

She is working at Cindy's breakfast in the morning.

Dan, it's Eminem.

Hey, did you see he got a standing ovation? Pretty cool. I love Eminem. Just can't listen to most of it with DD around.

 

[WillyJ]

I think she's the "Bride of (Harvey) Fierstein" Krisu. .


LOL!!!


Oh c'mon Dan!! You mean you didn't get into the deep, introspectful lyrics and soulful singing of JuJubead or whatever the hell his name is?? LOL!!!

I vote irritating too. .

 

[Krisu]

LOL Dan, I couldn't decide between Snow White and Glinda from The Wizard of Oz!!!

 

[Bunchkin]

First I thought Aretha looked liked she was possibly getting married after the Grammy's OR a puffy angel!!!!

And geez, how long do you think it took Bruce Springsteen to write that song with half the words being nananananan or lalalalalalala??

 

[Mskanga]

I want someone to explain to me ....why did Robin Williams win a grammy?? I never knew he was a singer! I'm confused!
On the other hand the tribute to the Bee Gees by NSYNC all I have to say is thank God it was short. It really hurt to see my Bee Gees incomplete , I cried when I saw his wife but what an honorable thing to do to make his son accept the grammy in his honor. As for the majority of the artists present, I think I only liked 3 or 4. Some of them I wonder how they made it this far....

 

[Whitegloves]

I believe Robin Williams won his Grammy for Best Spoken Comedy Album.
=0)

 

[Pooh Girl 71]

Robin Williams won Best Comedy Album (wait..do they even use the term "album" anymore or am i showing my age lol). I don't ecall them showing that on the actual show before though

Oh, that was that guy?? Well, I still don't like him, LOL. Too funny with Areatha, great singer, but her dress person went a bit overboard I think.

 

[WillyJ]

Robin Williams beat out Shep Sings Kareoke for best Comedy Album Olga. .



Ahhhh- hem Bunchkin. . . here are the lyrics to "The Rising":


THE RISING

Can't see nothin' in front of me
Can't see nothin' coming up behind
I make my way through this darkness
I can't feel nothing but this chain that binds me
Lost track of how far I've gone
How far I've gone, how high I've climbed
On my back's a sixty pound stone
On my shoulder a half mile of line

Come on up for the rising
Come on up, lay your hands in mine
Come on up for the rising
Come on up for the rising tonight

Left the house this morning
Bells ringing filled the air
Wearin' the cross of my calling
On wheels of fire I come rollin' down here

Come on up for the rising
Come on up, lay your hands in mine
Come on up for the rising
Come on up for the rising tonight

Li,li, li,li,li,li, li,li,li

There's spirits above and behind me
Faces gone black, eyes burnin' bright
May their precious blood bind me
Lord, as I stand before your fiery light

Li,li, li,li,li,li, li,li,li

I see you Mary in the garden
In the garden of a thousand sighs
There's holy pictures of our children
Dancin' in a sky filled with light
May I feel your arms around me
May I feel your blood mix with mine
A dream of life comes to me
Like a catfish dancin' on the end of my line

Sky of blackness and sorrow (a dream of life)
Sky of love, sky of tears (a dream of life)
Sky of glory and sadness (a dream of life)
Sky of mercy, sky of fear (a dream of life)
Sky of memory and shadow (a dream of life)
Your burnin' wind fills my arms tonight
Sky of longing and emptiness (a dream of life)
Sky of fullness, sky of blessed life

Come on up for the rising
Come on up, lay your hands in mine
Come on up for the rising
Come on up for the rising tonight. .


There. . now don't be dis'sing The Boss on my thread no more. . .

 

[Mskanga]

oh so wait a minute...you tell jokes, record them on a CD and then you win a grammy...I get it now! Boy times have certainly changed!! LOL
