I actually enjoyed the Grammy's very much. There were a couple of really inspiring moments during the show which almost drove me to tears:

I didn't realize how wonderful a singer Christine Agulera (sp) really is. Just wonderful!

I though Prince's opening number was down right groovin'.

Martina McBride, whom the wife and I saw in concert when she was an unknown, just blew us away.

The tribute to Luther Vandross almost drove me to tears, the piano playing by Richard Marx was very moving.

I was almost dancing on the couch when George Clinton and the Parliment of Funk teamed up with Earh, Wind, Fire, and a host of thousands doing funk.

I was almost moved to tears when George Harrison's wife and Yoko Ono accepted the Presidents awards and the ending to Warren Zevon.

Most Overrated: Alicia Keys, Justin Timberlake.

Most Underappreciated: Jazz, Michael McDonald, Eagles

Most Appreciated: The fact that there was much more music and less awards and useless announcer babble!!!

Just my humble take.
