Great winners: Harder Better, Sex on Fire, and Electric Feel. Also, good performance from Taylor Swift. Glad I only checked the final winners and watched her on Youtube, as the majority of the show seems meh.
Suck winners: All 3 of Lil Wayne's Grammys.

Well ok , there is an explanation why nobody knows the man. It's because they are oldies, the album sold very well, their fanbase is people older than 40.

Exactly, The album might be good but isn't for us. It's an album that can be only nominated in this show, not on mtv for example. I think is fair.

Took the words right out of my mouth. This definately was the worst in history. I never expected the grammy's to suck this bad, I expect this more from the VMA's, but not the grammy's.

I was surprised by the AOTY too  . I won't judge these guys without listening to their album though... maybe it's a ground breaking awe-inspiring life changing album of some sort.
