Originally Posted By Inspector 57 I'm pretty certain that was Chris Brown. On one hand, it was cool that the whole dance / cover the mike tribute was uncredited and un-hypyed. On the other...

Originally Posted By Sara Tonin I'm right there with you on that, Inspector. And I've avoided rap for awhile...but what I've heard tonight makes me think I should check some of these new guys out.
Originally Posted By Lisann22 Wow - very powerful performance. My mom loves Ludicris. LOL! I love that song. James Blunt - just add him the hobbits category along with Green Day. Aye yi yi! I just don't get this type of singing.
Originally Posted By Sara Tonin And James Blunt...what's up with that whiny crybaby voice...I wonder whether that voice will make him just a one hit wonder....
Originally Posted By Sara Tonin No...more like yodeling than whiny...I can't make up my mind...but the hobbit things fits
Originally Posted By Lisann22 I'm glad they picked Ludicris and THAT song. Not all rap is gang banging and swearing. There's a lot of creativity out there. Ok, off soapbox.
Originally Posted By Sara Tonin I'm so tired of hearing about Justin Timberfake...and that whole doing his own camera work earlier was just weird.
Originally Posted By Lisann22 He's been overblown this year but I like him. I think he's a real talent like Christina. Just a bit to much of him lately. Sad to say, but there gonna sell the white boy.
