Congrats to Alison Krauss on her nominations for Best American Roots Performance and Best Country Solo! :) :) :)

God bless you and her always!!!

Holly (a fan of Alison since 1994)

P.S. If she were to get both awards, she would then have 29 which would put her just two awards behind the man with the most, late conductor Georg Solti that is who currently has 31.

Tin Man by Miranda Lambert is a great song.

Also good to see Reba getting a nom for her gospel album.

^ Winners above in bold.

Sadly Alison Krauss remains at 27 wins. I thought for sure that she would at least get the award for Best American Roots Performance.

God bless you and her always!!!

Holly (a fan of Alison since 1994)

Also good to see Reba getting a nom for her gospel album.

And now a win for her gospel album! I'm not a fan of gospel music so I didn't bother getting the album, but I do love Reba and am thrilled for her.

Grammys panned for sloppy camerawork and awkward transitions from safe to riskier material (https://www.vox.com/culture/2018/1/29/16943952/2018-grammys-recap-awards-winners-losers-boring)

The 2018 Grammys struggled being back at Madison Square Garden after 15 years away, and the entire broadcast was so off that the person who got the most screentime other than host James Corden was Sting, “who kept turning up over and over again, any time the show needed to stuff the ‘this is getting a little too dangerous’ genie back into the bottle,” according to Vox’s Caroline Framke and Todd VanDerWerff (https://www.vox.com/culture/2018/1/29/16943952/2018-grammys-recap-awards-winners-losers-boring). They add: “In particular, the show’s choice to essentially silo all political messaging into one 20-minute section in the middle of the production felt like a network note, as if CBS itself had descended to say, ‘Let’s not scare off Trump voters with a bunch of business about immigration and men’s sexual misconduct.’ Indeed, the awkward, whiplash-inducing transitions from relatively safe material to riskier material felt very CBS — since the network is, after all, America’s most staid broadcaster.”

The Grammys fell 24% from last year. The drop could be due to the Grammys airing two weeks early, in January, for the first time since 2014 due to the Winter Olympics. ALSO: Animal charities criticize James Corden for “giving” away puppies during the ceremony. (https://uk.news.yahoo.com/grammys-host-james-corden-criticised-giving-puppies-award-143400783.html)

The Grammys are alienating an entire generation of talent with their conservatism (https://www.nytimes.com/2018/01/29/arts/music/grammy-awards-hip-hop-jay-z-cardi-b-lorde.html)
“The music industry is undergoing changes unlike any others in its history, and the Grammys, as an awards platform and also a telecast, have failed to keep up — it’s an unimaginative, risk-averse awards show masquerading as an unimaginative, risk-averse concert,” says NY Times music critic Jon Caramanica. He adds that you wouldn’t know of all the “vital shifts” to the pop charts last year, especially by hip-hop artists, by watching the Grammy ceremony. “None of these songs were featured, and none of these artists, apart from Cardi B, were granted a performance slot,” he says. “There are many root causes of this lack of representation: unsubtle racism and reverse ageism; a fundamental misreading of hip-hop’s power, reducing it to an accent piece when truly it is the main course; and presumably a fear that Grammy viewers would be more comfortable seeing Bono and Sting multiple times than any rapper apart from Kendrick Lamar, who delivered an imaginative and deeply invested show-opening performance.”

About "That's What I Like"... yeah, I don't really like that song very much, ironically. "That's What I Like" gets played too much on my local radio station, and I have gotten so bored with it, I find myself wanting it to avoid it at all costs.

Plus, I wonder if anyone in this forum actually likes Bruno Mars or any of his songs.
