Guest Texas Small Arms 09 Report post Posted January 8, 2003 I know some of you are completely smitten over Avril, but after seeing and hearing her announce this years Grammy nominees all I can say is Jesus Christ this girl needs to get a clue. I assume she is way to young to know who David Bowie is let alone say his name right. And in inverviews all she can say is "like" about 100 times over. She seems as deep as a 3 foot pool. Sorry guys I had to say it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Kotzenjunge Report post Posted January 8, 2003 And she got all those Pop nominations that should have been you-know-who's. Song of the Year my ass. Go anywhere outside of this narrow-minded country and you'll hear "Can't Get You Out Of My Head" be called Song of the Year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest spiny norman Report post Posted January 8, 2003 Wasn't Can't Get You Out Of My Head 2001? But yeah, I hate Avril. Why do The Grammies give the awards to really undeserving individuals half the time, and then suddenly give it someone who does deeserve it the next? If Avril wins Best Newcomer it will be a joke. They should give it to someone who will be around for a while. I think I'll root for Norah Jones to get that one. But they never get it right for Best Newcomer, Madonna couldn't get it in 1983 and look who's the female pop singer 90% of the artists have tried to emulate.

Guest Kotzenjunge Report post Posted January 8, 2003 Wasn't Can't Get You Out Of My Head 2001? Not here in America. Here it was released in January, and the album was released on February 26th.

Guest treble charged Report post Posted January 8, 2003 The town Avril's from has some cheap gas. I like that. Girl's retarded, though. I mean, Christ, you call yourself 'hardcore' and 'rock', but don't know who to pronounce David fucking Bowie's name. Sad. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I mean, Christ, you call yourself 'hardcore' and 'rock', but don't know who to pronounce David fucking Bowie's name. Sad. I'll bet that she knows who Terri Clark, Michelle Wright, Blue Rodeo and Stompin' Tom Connors are though. Actually, she'd BETTER know who Stompin' Tom is...

Guest NoCalMike Report post Posted January 9, 2003 The Grammys have seemed to confuse themselves as a popularity contest which is usually reserved for the MTV awards show and the Billboard record sales awards show. Bottomline, if the Grammys actually had "experts" in the fields of each genre, there is no way almost ANY of those nominees would exist. The Metal category is quite simply a JOKE, like it is every year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest CoreyLazarus416 Report post Posted January 9, 2003 The very fact that Nine Inch Nails, Tool, and JETHRO TULL have all been nominated (and won) the metal award in the past is enough to prove that the Grammy people have no fucking clue what metal is. NO...FUCKING...CLUE... Fuck Avril. Mwahaha... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Sandman9000 Report post Posted January 9, 2003 Sad thing is, she wore a old shirt that had the name of the college I go to about it. So, everyone got all excited about it, and the people down the hall have already made plans to throw me out of my room and into the basement so that Avril can have my room, since she wore a shirt from my college, she is obviously coming here. Actually, I think the people down the hall just want me to leave. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest subliminal_animal Report post Posted January 9, 2003 "Bo-ee" isn't how you pronounce it? That's the one I've always heard. If Avril wins Best Newcomer it will be a joke. Grammys are a joke. They're nowhere near the Oscars and the Emmys. But they never get it right for Best Newcomer, Madonna couldn't get it in 1983 and look who's the female pop singer 90% of the artists have tried to emulate. Who'd she lose to?

Guest Sandman9000 Report post Posted January 9, 2003 When people were all exicted about Avril and assuming that she was coming to my school, I told them that if I saw her, I'd kick her teeth down her fucking throat. So, I can help kill her. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest nl5xsk1 Report post Posted January 9, 2003 Avril is kind of a guilty pleasure for me ... I don't overly respect her skills or anything, and do not think that she's punk at all, but she's not as horrendous as so many people on this board claim. But then again, I've seen every episode of every TV show the Olsen Twins have done so maybe my opinion is a bit jaded ... and no, I'm NOT a pedophile.

Guest subliminal_animal Report post Posted January 10, 2003 I think "So Little Time" is okay. Better than "Two of a Kind," which wasn't horrible either. I meant 'bow' as in 'take a bow'. I do so all the time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
