Madonna and Gorillaz To Perform Together @ Grammys - Page 2

Do you think they'll play Coachell next year?

I missed Madonna, but saw U2. 5 for 5!

Too bad they didn't perform City of Blinding Lights. I can only guess that it was too long given that they had to perform the duet with Mary J. Blige. Contrary to many other U2 fans' opinions, I actually enjoy Blige's cover of One.

Springsteen's performance of Devils and Dust was also very good, and I loved the New Orleans jam at the end.

I turned it off. I saw Madonna's clucky corset and animated tightie whities, a bad speech full of awful puns for a David Bowie award, Coldplay and U2 - then I realized I knew nothing about what the Grammy's call "music" and didn't really want to, so I turned it off.

Oh, and if that was a test of animating Gorillaz ... then they've got a loooong way to go.

Gorillaz was lame, sorry. Madonna tried valiently to save the opening act, and did give it a bit of much-needed ooomph ... but I think the whole opening sorta fell flat.

'Course, that was on TV. I'll never forget how much better I found the Grammy's to be when I was actually in the audience. Musical numbers or no, I've always found them sorta boring on television.

(Oh, and I think that was actually a diaper, not a tighty-whitey.)

No, Murdoc was wearing a tighty whitey.

BTW: You saying you don't like Gorillaz or Madonna is like you saying the sky is blue.

Well, while I'm clearly not a fan of either of the hugely popular musical performers / fictional characters ... I am on record as enjoying Madonna live on two occasions (one of them actually at the Grammy's). And I had no problem with the music Gorillaz performed ... my judgment of "poor" was on the animation itself. Lackluster and dull. Unconvincing and unentertaining.

Were you expecting them to look more like real people ?

innerSpaceman · 02-10-2006, 06:51 PM

No, silly, they looked fine in 3-D ... they were just animated poorly, imo. Movementwise.
