Ok, I hope this all comes out right....I've been glancing thru some posts 
over the past couple of days and there's been some talk about Alicia Keys 
receiving 5 awards at the Grammys, it seems to be ruffling some feathers. 
Personally I think the Grammys along with all other award shows are BS, yep 
I said it.... BS! I have the Alicia Keys CD and love it, not as much as Joni 
but I think she has talent and stands out from most other carbon copied MTV 
midriff girlies.....anyway, I just think that music is way too subjective to 
be judged in this manner, call me a cynic but 99,9% of the heavy hitter 
awards : Best Album, Best new Artist etc.....  all have videos on MTV, they 
are products of marketing research. To me Joni is a once in a lifetime 
miracle of creative genius and what makes her extra wonderful is that the 
tiger can't tame her. In 1969 was the award about how much $$$ you could 
make the producers??? That's what the Grammys seem like to me these days. I 
mean come on any award show that Pamala Anderson is presenting at I can't 
take too seriously :) Oh and Bob Dylan most certainly freaked me out a bit, 
he looked as though he should've been drinking a mint julep and saying 
something like "I do declare".
Joni rocks, we all know it, no matter how many damn little gold record 
players she wins :))
Hope everyone is doing well!
