Whoo-Hoo!!

Amy Winehouse Rules! The British Invasion continues, here in 2008 – with a beehive hairdo!!

(Wow. That’s a new record, even for me – exclamation marks on EVERY sentence up there…)

Anyhoo – the point I was trying to make is that while we may have been rooting for fellow Canuck Feist, that album of Winehouse’s was one of our favourites from last year. Sure, there were other good ones as well, but we wore those MP3 tracks out, over the past 12 months.

And, there’s something wickedly enjoyable about watching a performance by an artist briefly released from rehab, just long enough to sing about it. Plus, who didn’t feel just a bit more warmth in their hearts, as she thanked her incarcerated husband? Magical, just magical…

Hey, does everyone know that I’m talking about the 50th Annual Grammy Awards broadcast last night?

One of the better ones, in our books. Great performances, and a wide variety of musical styles, rather than concentrating on the crap they usually dedicate 4 hours to. I still find however that some of the awards presented are a bit unnecessary, compared to many of the others that are ignored, and simply scrolled across the screen as “presented earlier this evening”. But, that is just our humble opinion. There are probably viewers that tune in specifically for “Best Stereo Recording Of A Beat-Box Beat, Looping Over Scratchin’ Records And Muffled Microphone Noises That Barely Resemble Vocal Tracks”…

Amy, you go girl! Back to rehab maybe, but with FIVE Grammies to help brighten up the décor…

Chow for now!!
