Is it wrong that the musical intro to this Imagine Dragons song reminds me of "Big Country" from back in the 80s? 

 

ETA:  well ... it's not just the intro...the rest of the song sounds like a cross between that and Depeche Mode's "I Promise You" .

 

This is seriously Katy Perry? I didn't even recognize her. Didn't she just have purple hair an hour ago? 

 

Spent the entire performance wondering which was a wig... the purple or the brunette.

Imagine Dragons is what passes as rock music these days. That makes me really sad.

 

Thank God I'm not the only one. I finally feel validated in this and the Beyonce indifference. My people!

 

ETA: I thought the purple hair chick on the red carpet was Demi Lovato? Whoever she is?

I shouldn't really comment on Gaga's performance here because I have the song "Heaven" on my song list in my phone as sung by Sanjaya Malakar from American Idol season 6.

My musical taste is ... sketchy.

Holy ballsack Batman! Another sleepy ass song. I mean, Stevie rules, natch, but whither the up-tempo numbers?

Oh my god.  Did NO ONE release up-tempo songs this year?  

 

Seriously though. Maybe it was just that everything seems better through the eyes of your youth, but man. When I was young, I was SO excited to watch the Grammys every year. They were fantastic... it was an event! And the performances (vintage Madonna, Michael Jackson, Prince, etc...) were talked about (in a good way) for a long time afterward.  This show isn't just bad... it's boring.  That's a depressing commentary on the state of popular music today.

I had the Big Country Album....On Vinyl!  *LOL*

 

Yup, me too.  In fact, I still have a couple of the 12" extended singles, Wonderland being my fave.  

 

I don't know what it is exactly but they need to kick it up a notch or two and keep the show going at a steady flow.  Something is just so off.  And I'm getting old.
