Ah, yeah. I don't listen to all types of music and can not get the hype surrounding some of it. This does, to me, devalue the importance of winning a Grammy. That some of it, which to me is pure BS, win awards. And, the people who have had spaz attacks when they haven't won?
I didn't watch the whole show {I do enjoy most of the entertainment they put on, a little variety show, to speak} but I saw that when they were giving an award to the song writers, the song 'Umbrella' had a list of writers. WTF? Was the song that difficult to write? I am not commenting on the song, but, out of all of the songs, it had the most writers.
