Congrats to Arcade Fire, but what is up with them winning best album? A bit of a shocker, sounds like they were shocked to. They are very, very good, but since when was that important at the Grammys? Well deserved win, but big surprise.

Not knocking the others either, I think Eminem is very good at what he does. Not my cup of tea exactly, but I still like his stuff, and Lady Gaga and Katy Perry are decent pop singers. Don't get the Lady Gaga stripper image thing, also don't get why Katy Perry gets knocked for her looks (ok, not a knockout, but still looks pretty good to me), but as "pop" music both are good too. No comment on Lady Antebellum though. If you can't say something nice...

So does this mean the radios on the English speaking world will play less of auto-tuned guy chanting the same word on and on and on and it goes on and on and on?
