American Music Awards

A complete let down! I sat down to watch the awards show and for a minute I thought I had it on the wrong channel. The performances on last night's show were more suited to a Sci Fi movie. The performers let me down and let me down hard. Expecting to see the emotions and nuances expressed by the performances, I saw a light show that replaced talent and a whole lot of militant dancing revealing the aggressive nature of the art of music has become.

It was not an entertaining show, but a bad display of the degradation and vulgarity of mankind. I didn't appreciate it and yes, I could have stopped watching. I was hoping that eventually I was see musical talent displayed. After all it was a music awards show. A night of disappointment, the finale revealed why Adam did not win the American Idol. He is a superb performer and his true colors came through last night.

Performers remember, you can make trillions of dollars at what you do, but will you be remembered? I failed to see a Bach, Beethoven, Mozart, nor did I see a Cash, McIntyre, Elvis, Lynn, Jones, Martin, Sinatra, not even anything close to a Michael Jackson. There was no Beatles, Supremes, Commodores, Imperials. Yes, I could go on and on, but for now I don't see a performer that will withstand the sands of time to be remembered as a great artist.

Maybe next year!

Happy Reading!
