Fighting Irrelevance, Grammys Desperately Trying To Be Heard

But the big news wasn t revealed at the special.
Announced via press release were all 110 categories, and sport dress the big name was Lil Wayne with a staggering eight nominations. Coldplay grabbed seven, Jay-Z, Ne-Yo and Kanye West each earned six, and Alison Krauss, John Mayer, Robert Plant, Radiohead and Jazmine Sullivan received five each.
The night s live performances were uneven - like the Grammys. Some great, some average, some just plain bad, 90's fancy dress but all struggling for relevance when America has awards-show fatigue and last year s Grammys, lounge dress with just 17.2 million viewers, was one of the least-watched in the award s history.
The show opened on cheeky note with Mariah Carey in a Santa-red mini dress singing Christmas (Baby Please Come Home). But things quickly plummeted. Super bore Celine Dion covered Janis Ian s downer At 17,the tolerable Foo Fighters almost rocked out to Your So Vain.
Smartly, the Grammys booked Christina Aguilera to sing Gershwin s I Loves You Porgy. In 2007, a raunchy Aguilera stole the Grammys with a jaw-dropping take on It s A Man s Man s Man s World ; last night, a classy Aguilera repeated the feat with a jazz classic.
The special s big problem was that it couldn t stop reminding us we were watching an hour-long commercial. When you have to beg for attention so shamelesslymaybe it s time to pack it in.
