What a joke. I've heard that chick live. She's fucking awful. Kanye gave her that award. They may as well let him hand her the award on stage.

On a related note, @ the guy seemingly copping a feel.

I'm glad Darius Rucker won New Artist though. Despite the fact he may hate the nickname, I'm happy to see Hootie back being really successful again.

If that guy wasn't copping a feel, I think her tits would have popped out.

Oh, so I wasn't the only one who noticed that then.

Who did you think deserved to win?

Well, you have to admit, that Kanye thing was pretty entertaining.

Carrie Underwood, and she wasn't nominated. Out of the ones nominated, Paisley or Urban should have won. Urban puts on a helluva show, but Paisley's been around long enough to deserve the award. Swift is this year's it girl, and next year no one will give a shit about her.

But seriously, she is fucking awful laugh. She was booed when she played at the Walmart shareholders meeting last year. Then Carrie and Urban were applauded and encored.

Well, one good thing came out of it: Kanye went far away and shut the fuck up, for a little while at least.

Isn't she one of those "American False God" winners?

Who? Taylor Swift? No.

Carrie Underwood? Yes.

Taylor's just some girl that rose to fame during the Miley Cyrus era. But she was catapulted by the Kanye West situation at the MTV Video Awards a few months ago.

I find that hard to believe. Beyonce has had quite a bit of success, as has Carrie Underwood. Not to mention J Lo was still pretty huge at the beginning of this decade.

Don't get me wrong. She seems like a really sweet girl. And she isn't a bad actress either. She was in an episode of CSI that she did well on.

But her voice is fabricated in the studio. Live, she sounds like shit.

That's what you have now a days. More and more people who can't sing, look what people consider "great" and are told they can sing by studios.

Auto-tune is one of the leading factors for the fall of music these days. That, and the quality of music has been sharply declining.

Go from the 60's to today and take a look at the top 10-15 singers/groups from each period.

Account for the fact that the new generation of dolts who buy this shit is larger than the previous ones ... it's possible, and as I always say, popular doesn't mean better.

My friend who works at the arena here said the same thing. She only got it because they felt bad for her and the tweens love her. She isn't a country singer.

Both Country and Rock are no longer representing their actual genres. More so, Pop has invaded both and it's more Pop Rock and Pop Country.

Sorry ... but knowing you're a kid makes that rather humorous. So ... what rock and country have you listened to?
