I didn't even attempt the Grammy's--haven't for years. I love music, but I'm hopelessly outdated. If it's been released in the last ten years and I didn't hear it by accident from something my daughter's listening to, I don't have a clue.masked_momnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1078324787471983933.post-26929649337767559212012-02-15T11:12:49.941-05:002012-02-15T11:12:49.941-05:00The Civil Wars ????

My Prayer Sister, Cindy works for Joy Willam's father at the Christian camp Mount Hermon here in the Santa Cruz Mountains.You lasted longer than me watching this spectacle. I made it to the first award to Adele. I didn't know who she was either. I saw an interview with her with Anderson Cooper and really liked her. I would buy her CD (no ipod here). You're right, we are old and the Beach Boys are older! I wish I hadn't given my BFF (at the time) sister my collection of Beach Boy albums. At least I'd be able to understand the words.<br />We changed channels and watched Downtown Abbey.

I will have to check out the Holocene video.<br />Thanks also for letting me know about Deadmau5. That's so interesting. It is definitely that G-Gap going on here.LyndaGracenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1078324787471983933.post-82660860763397360592012-02-13T10:31:53.909-05:002012-02-13T10:31:53.909-05:00I didn't even bother to watch the Grammys...to...I didn't even bother to watch the Grammys...to be honest, I can't remember the last time I did in the first place. Most of the people I've maybe heard of but know nothing about (like Adele)...or have never heard of (like Bon Iver - who are, apparently, from my neck of the woods...). <br /><br />I know a lot of people were really mad because they did this HUGE tribute to Whitney Houston and almost forgot about Etta James...and how Chris Brown won some award even though he beat the crap out of his ex (Rhianna)...and how Rhianna was acting weird and...<br /><br />I didn't really care.

I really love the song Holocene from his new album ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TWcyIpul8OE). As for the mouse ears, the electronic artist Deadmau5 performs in mouse head and if you go see him live they hand out those mouse ears and people show up in mouse costumes. :)Erin Bowienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1078324787471983933.post-70150863743733961562012-02-13T08:13:49.148-05:002012-02-13T08:13:49.148-05:00Very cool post, Lynda.

My kids do make cd's for me sometimes, alerting me to music that they think I might like. I always appreciate that but I just don't listen to that much contemporary music. Bruno Mars? Really? I never heard of him.....and so many more.sebtown294noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1078324787471983933.post-58347869615122418952012-02-13T05:54:46.110-05:002012-02-13T05:54:46.110-05:00I urge you to listen to Civil Wars and see if you ...I urge you to listen to Civil Wars and see if you don't become enthralled. My daughter had their you tube channel on one day last summer and I listened for about an hour and became hooked. haunting melodies, lyrics you can understand and relate to. <br />As for Adele, I have become addicted to her voice, her down to earth personality and her rapid rise to fame. Give her a listen or tune into her channel on Pandora.<br />Thanks for the rundown. Your synopsis helps me to realize I missed nothing. I didn't watch because some of the more weird acts put me in a bad mood.Erin Mcdonaldnoreply@blogger.com
