| Love this guy |
Ok, so I don't normally do this type of thing. I consider myself more of a music lover than a music critic. I tuned into the Grammy's last night for the first time in many years. I had decided to watch them for the sole purpose of seeing my hero, Bob Dylan perform. I saw him live in concert a couple of years ago (which by the way I had assumed would be one of the most important moments of my life), and was so let down and unsatisfied that I had been holding a bit of a grudge. When I heard he was going to be at the Grammy's I knew that I had to watch, because the love that I have for this man is an unconditional kind. I have alot to say about last night - and not many people I know are as intense or opinionated about music as I am, so I wanted to share my thoughts with you guys :) I'm only going to talk about the performances I had particularly strong opinions about - and as for rest of the performances I either liked them or didn't care at all.

Strippers. Now that I have your attention.. Strippers are dirty -yes, but there is something about them that clearly appeals to people. A beautiful (sometimes) person wearing next to nothing, gyrating and sliding their body all over the stage. You have to give them credit though - it's not as easy as it looks. It takes alot of confidence, coordination and skill to twist your body around that pole and dance naked in front of a crowd of strangers. I think most people have a stripper fantasy. I also think most people have probably performed a strip tease. "Already Over Me" by the Rolling Stones is a perfect strip tease song. The low purr of the guitar and super chill beat evokes images of night, smoky rooms and sex.
