I think there was something more tacky and in your face than this year's Vanilla Ice and Madonna officiating like a wax figure Sun Myung Moon over dozens of marriages.  Maybe at the 2017 Grammies they can do all of the divorces.

But....am I the only one who thinks Daft Punk

AND "Random Access Memories"

AND "Get Lucky" are just really, really overrated bordering on shit?

I mean, I was bored with "Get Lucky" the first time I heard.  How many times do they sing that hook?  20?  30?  Too much?

It's a hip dance track with a pedegree (Look!  Nile Rodgers!  He was in Chic and produced Madonna!) for people who have no idea how to shake their ass.  It's like a Cocaine Socialism EDM.

It's no "Hey Ya" or "Crazy".  It's not even "Sex and Candy."

As for the album, I can't give an opinion  because I keep falling asleep in the middle of it.

And take off those stupid fucking helmets.  What are you?  Kiss?  If I wanted to listen to a pretentious French duo that rarely puts out records, I'd put on the "Virgin Suicides" soundtrack.

Everone hates on Robin Thicke, but "Blurred Lines" was a MUCH better track.  People actually hooked up and got laid to that one (whether they liked it or not.)

Also, I was hoping that there would be a massive hair dye accident and we wouldn't have to put up with any more of this Beatlemania nonsense.  For most of you, how does it feel that you worship the same stupid shit that your parents did?  Y'all want to blow John Lennon.  I think he should be shot.

The only bright point is there never will be a Beatles 60th Anniversary.  They'll be dead by then.   Then this classic rock hegemony will be dead forever.

Those phrases would certainly describe my parents, and they certainly have a shit about how I felt.

There are ways to get those people to see your point of view and come around to your side of things, but Queen Latifah officiating a mass Hollywood wedding and Madonna preaching aint it, imho.

This is why the conservatives hate us liberals. And I can't say that I blame them.


Macklemore & Lewis' "Same Love," a song written in support of same-sex marriage, was performed on a set resembling a church. Macklemore's rap was followed by a mass wedding featuring 33 couples taking the stage of Los Angeles' Staples Center.
Queen Latifah officiated, and Madonna served as maid of honor, following Latifah's exhortions with "Open Your Heart." The crowd roared its approval as the couples made their way back up the aisle.

So fuck 'em.

yeah, since when did jesus-loving, gun-toting conservatives ever give a shit about how you felt JF?  fuck 'em.

Damn it, I guess I shouldn't have brought up Daft Punk?

What are the odds of Islamic terrorists hitting this thing hard?

that's bullshit. you can't tell anyone anything in this world, no matter how you come across or how well-versed or educated you are.

I agree with Rhett that if one is an Evangelical of the persuasion that gay marriage is wrong, a Macklemore song + wedding spectacular is probably only going to entrench their worldview, not make them reconsider it.

That said, I'm not really sure that was the intended point of that whole thing.

[atomic]

I didn't watch it, but reading about it makes it reek of (douchebag) Hollywood liberals rubbing their issue into the face of conservative middle America moreso than a sincere wedding ceremony.

I'm in favor of gay marriage but against awfully/tackily produced/contrived weddings (gay or straight).

I don't your comments at all.  Why do you hate gay marriage?

Why do you care how someone else gets married.  Who are you to say it is tacky? 

Yeah, I am sure people get married all the time to piss-off conservative america instead of loving the person they are with and wanting to spend a life-time together.

You seem to want everyone to share your opinion on things.  First the outrage that someone wrote a book about women being submissive and now this marriage celebration thing.  Neither of these things affects you.  Why do you care?

I think Ellen Degeneres having an everyday talk show does more for the cause than the Grammy spectacle.

How does the Degeneres lady having a talk show have anything to do with someone chosing to get married?  Is she marrying people on her show?

yeah, this is pretty much spot on...

[James Ford]

Just saying that she's someone middle America sees every day and probably can relate to. Middle America in turn find out that Ellen is a married lesbian, and "Hey, she's a normal chick who just happens to be gay and wants to be married, I can relate to that."

Queen Latifah officiating a big televised Hollywood produced ceremony with Madonna telling them that they need to "Open Your Heart"....they're probably not going to relate to that.

You think perhaps people just want to have a big Hollywood produced extravaganza for their wedding because it makes them happy and they aren't doing things to cause other people to be annoyed?  I know that might be beyond you.  You are putting your opinions on others as always.   I don't see how Ellen fits into all this.  I find her boring and not funny.   Her wife is funny though.  Maybe she should be the one with the show.

Do gay peoples personalities have to match your own before you find them acceptable?  Why does middle america need to relate to this anyway.  When I planned my wedding I wasn't thinking "Will conservatives approve of my wedding?"
