I had the tv on mute during the whole show, just waiting for Adele to sing.
She sang flawlessly as usual, and I switched channels.

Honey, I've seen Andrew Dice Clay in person* and Gaga was no Andrew Dice Clay. She definitely needs to keep her day -- and night -- job. Acting is not in her future.

I missed the whole thing (power outage due to Irene) but I think its odd to have an awards show based on music videos which they don't even play anymore. In fact, NO ONE shows music videos anymore so why give awards for them? If anything YouTube show be giving them out since that is where we can still see them.

That's what I want out of a musician .... to mask doing too many flips with some snazzy dance steps ......... yeah, this is pretty much why Chris Brown and 90% of the music that is out there right now flat sucks eggs .... not to mention ol' chris brown also gets to wear the hat of woman beater and overall d'nozzle as a person, so............

Actually, MTV still plays videos. You have to have an expanded digital package through your television provider to see them, though. It's not on their "main" channel. The only reason I know all this stuff is because I still have one kid at home. I haven't listened to current music for about five years, at least, but it has become noticeably better this year. Thank goodness.

I agree. I am 26 and i hate the garbage that is the music of today. I like the old stuff with some current artists: (radiohead, u2, coldplay, sade, beck, etc) I don't really enjoy hip hop, rap, or commercial pop music.
