Concur. On all counts.
Moving on to the VMAs, I thought Chris Rock saved the day. Concur with str8 on the direction/sound problems/video problems. The reason Kelly Osbourne had to beg for an ovation for Duran Duran is that the video package about how the band was revolutionary etc.
The kisses were medium spicy. Was I the only one who thought that Britney and Christina were going to kiss at some point in the performance? The performance reinforced what we already know:
(1) Madonna can't sing.
(2) Madonna has great stylists.
(3) Britney can't sing either.
(4) Britney needs a better stylist.
(5) Christina can sing.
(6) Christina needs a stylist who has never been convicted of pandering.
I do like the idea of Madonna having to consumate the ceremony with Brit and Xtina on pay-per-view.
"Hurt" by Johnny Cash won best cinematographer for Mark Romanek (who directed
One Hour Photo). It was the best video of the year. I saw it a couple of times while channel surfing and was struck by how powerful it was. It reminds many of the emotional punch that "Jeremy" had, but I think it recalls Radiohead's "Just."
I really like Missy, but she should not have won best video. Best use of a prepubescent white girl in a dance video? Sure. Best backwards singing in a video? Yup.
Best? Un unh.
It's sad, because there are videos that rise to the level of art.
