    I don’t watch or care much about the Grammys but Olivia/Guts should have won something.

    I've given her plenty of shots, it never sticks.

    Lana is great and maybe not for everyone!

    most of the hyped up artists on the Grammys are boring as hell. that goes for Travis Scott, who is the essence of mediocre but over-edited to seem like he's got talent. that goes for Lana and Billie Eilish, who both put me to sleep. that goes for Taylor, who is the most plain-jane you could ever think up. they over-featured the most boring SZA song on her worst album. the best new artists are TikTok-chasers, not actual hardworking, talented artists. pop music is more boring now in the 2020's than any other decade. none of these artists actually take risks--and their audiences would never want them to either--and the Grammy's celebrate the mediocrity. they won't even televise the genre award categories with actually good nominees. Jay Z was spot on with his speech. obviously loved the Joni Mitchell and Tracy Chapman performances. sometimes they get it right, but it's usually when they're paying respects to older artists.

    Taylor has a safe sound, but insanely catchy.

    I don't like when artists spend their time on stage talking about another artist or how that other artist should have won. It feels very much like "rubbing it in their face" a la Adele or Taylor yesterday with Lana, especially since Lana clearly did not want to go up on stage.

    I felt so bad for Lana, it was so awkward watching Taylor drag her up on stage. I don’t understand why she brought her up there.

    She had a feature on the album, plus I guess she didn't want to leave her alone at the table since she and Jack both went up on stage.

    I don't think it's wrong to shout out other artists during your speech who you think deserve recognition. As for bringing her on stage, I'm sure it was a little awkward, but Taylor clearly did it with good intentions.

    Tubthumping is insanely catchy. I want that to be Song of the Year every year.

    lana is a lot of things and one of them is not being my particular favorite thing to listen to but to deny the artistry/arc the last decade is showing your ass online for free

    Yeah, Lana is not for me. But she definitely has some great songs and clearly is hitting with like-minded folks.
