Exactly what I’ve been thinking since I missed the whole thing! I’m having a hard time looking for it. Does anybody know where’s a good source to watch it whole?

If I recall correctly, the last such splash was Herbie Hancock’s well-deserved album of the year award a few years back for his covers of Joni Mitchell material

But my, oh my, her Wikipedia and Twitter are both getting TRASHED by those Bieber fanatics. The things those tweens know and say is baffling…

Anyways, congrats to Lady A for representing “Country” (I use that term loosely; note the quotations) last night! I’m very happy for them, and I am stoked for Miranda! First Grammy performance, first Grammy! :)

“Finally, how does Esperanza feel about trumping Bieber for Best New Artist? “When this is all over, we’re all colleagues again, just like we were before,” she says. “He sold more records than me. We’re doing our thing in our respective fields. He’s unquestionably a talented man. What can I say? I didn’t beat him. I’m taking that thing home. He has great hair, and I have great hair.””

Or something?). I’m not a believer in indie-is-better or anything; it’s just nice to see Grammy voters (a plurality of them, anyway) not just checking the box with the easiest name recognition (which…I mean, “Hey Soul Sister” (Live!) got a Grammy, too).

She’s been nominated multiple times on her own, and never won.
