        <title>grammys</title>
        <description> I generally ignore the Grammys as an event that takes place in a completely different dimension than the one I inhabit, but I&amp;#039;m genuinely curious about how nominations are made, etc. I just don&amp;#039;t see how Green Day can still be winning awards for an album that came out in mid-2004. And what is the difference between song of the year, performance of the year, single of the year, yadda yadda yadda infinitum?

Even if I cared about the Grammy&amp;#039;s, I just don&amp;#039;t see how anyone could make heads or tails out of them, because everything seems so arbitrary - there are too many categories that make little or no sense and the timeline for nominations for a particular year seems to be pretty malleable. I just don&amp;#039;t understand them at all.</description>

            <description><![CDATA[ What did this year&#039;s grammy&#039;s mean to me?<br />
<br />
No corporate puss can shut that glorious big fat Bono mouth.<br />
<br />
And I don&#039;t suppose he aims to be shuttin it off any time soon by his own accord neither.<br />
<br />
Why the fuck should he?<br />
<br />
Oh..., Ok, he flaps them gums for fans, aye? Is zat right?<br />
<br />
Sheeee-ut, that fucker could silent fart and conjure up a stench-i-fied grace that would send that Coldplay feller lookin fer bottled air.  Sad the old timer had to bury (and nearly all the rest) of the young pups.<br />
<br />
All that said McCartney is GOD and should tour with Elvis Costello.<br />
<br />
Price____?]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[ It&#039;s available on the &quot;Eight Miles High/Makes No Sense at All&quot; 4 track single CD-EP, which I believe is still in print (4th cut is a live &quot;Masochism World&quot; if I remember correctly).<br />

            <description><![CDATA[ U2 walked away with five Grammys. That makes 20 for them. Again, they won for <i>the same album</i> they won for last year. If you look at past wins, you&#039;ll <a href="http://www.slate.com/id/2135666/?nav=tap3"  rel="nofollow">see it makes no sense</a>.<br />
&quot;If you think this is going to go to our head, it&#039;s too late,&quot; Bono (2006 Grammys).<br />
<br />
Who else won?<br />
Marlo Thomas.<br />
Yup.<br />
When I say Marlo Thomas, what do you picture?<br />
<br />

            <description><![CDATA[ or how the fucks at sony took the sly stone tribute album realeased on starbucks label last year, put 2 new songs on it, re-launch it yesterday, and have everybody on the cd (including the producers Randy Jackson, Niles Rodgers, and Steve Jordan) play at his grammy tribute last night., not to mention haulin&#039; his wasted carcass out for 30 seconds just to make it legit.<br />

            <description><![CDATA[ I agree with your views. It&#039;s all very corporate to me - MTV in suits and gowns.<br />
<br />
It&#039;s nice to know U2 beat out Mariah though, for whatever theire worth nowadays.<br />
