Who is voting for the Grammys?

Back in the day, my friend Brenna’s dad voted on the Grammys. All I remember about him being musically involved was the complete wall of CD’s he had in the house. No joke, floor to ceiling over the entire wall.

Tonight while watching the Grammys I was aghast at the number of awards given to Amy Winehouse. I don’t understand it. The first time I ever saw her was when I was perusing Youtube.com and found out Charlotte Church had her own TV show in England. I thought that was funny so I started watching the musical performances. Charlotte sings with her guests at the end of every show. I unknowingly clicked on one featuring Amy Winehouse. Her voice was atrocious. Later this year she became overwhelmingly popular and I couldn’t get away from her “Rehab” song.

Who are you, Grammy voters? I think you need a reality check in Great Music vs. Popularity Amongst Fourteen-Year-Old Girls.
