who else believes jermaine & Latoya ana others maybe are asking the grammy producers to be let on stage with the kids so they could provide 'emotional support' ? I hope Katherine ONLY stand there beside them , because these FOUR people were indeed the most precious individuals in MJ's life .

Re: Grammy Earth Song Tribute (all discussion here)

Ok, so today it's time for the Earth Song tribute at the Grammy's :)


Oh and one thing. There's probably going to be a lot of users and visitors on MJJC again when the Grammy's are on and especially during the tribute show and I know everyone wants to post their opinion and views on that very moment when everything is happening, but to avoid the server and forum crashing again please do not refresh the thread like in every 2 secs. Thank you! :flowers:

Re: Grammy Earth Song Tribute (all discussion here)

Well after seeing the rehearsal for it I have to say I think they did a GREAT job. I love how they kept Michaels voice through most of it and the others sang just parts of it. I think they all sounded great and they sounded great all together!

Re: Grammy Earth Song Tribute (all discussion here)

So the Grammy's will start at 8pm PST, right?

That would be 6am my time and for the UK'ers it's 4am.

That's 1AM GMT and 3AM Finland time ;)

I don't get it :huh: The Grammy's are being held in Los Angeles and according to this world clock LA is 10 hours behind my time. Oh wait, now I think I get it... 8pm ET is like the time in New York and that's 7 hours behind my time and that would make the Grammy's start at 3am my time.

Confusing, huh? :D
 
Re: Grammy Earth Song Tribute (all discussion here)

Why would the advertise the New York starting time, instead of the LA one? :mello:

My heart skipped a beat when I first looked this picture. :cry:
I didn't watch the rehearsal video but I can already tell that this will be a great but very emotional and heart wrenching tribute. I'm getting my box of tissues ready.

Re: Michael Jackson's Kids May Appear at Grammys - Update pg 13 (All discussion here)

Man, all I can say is, IF Prince recites a speech at the Grammy telecast, I feel sorry for ALL the artist in the building tonight. LOL!

It won't matter who won what or how many, tonight's Grammy's will be "The Prince Michael Jackson Show." Sorry GaGa! Sorry Beyonce! Sorry Taylor Swift! This night may very well end up belonging to Mr. Prince Jackson.

I agree. If Prince were to recite a speech, it will probably be the only memorable thing about the show and the only thing the media will talk about for next couple weeks. ha, just like they did with Paris' speech. That is, if Kayne West doesn't interrupt or anything...
I don't know what to believe right now though. Maybe the kids will be there for tribute, but right now I have my doubts about any of them speaking.

For me, tonight's Grammy award show will be all about Michael no matter what. I'll probably end up turning it off after the tribute. I don't need to see a repeat of the VMA's or AMA's.
 
Re: Grammy Earth Song Tribute (all discussion here)

Grammys start at 5PM PDT or 8PM EDT
 
Re: Michael Jackson's Kids May Appear at Grammys - Update pg 13 (All discussion here)

Is the tribute opening the show?
 
Re: Michael Jackson's Kids May Appear at Grammys - Update pg 13 (All discussion here)

If they are smart enough they will

Every year I find it's waste of time waiting for the highlights of the Grammys

Sometimes they even don't have great shows which were supposed to.

I'm gonna watch it on YouTube

Can't believe Joe straight out lied about Prince and Paris practicing their speeches! :lol: Its not just a little white lie too but its pretty big lol
Click to expand...

I know.. lol, this is why I'm confused. I can't see Joe lying about that, doesn't he have sense to know that when they don't actually turn up he is going to look like a lying fool?! Anyway, he doesn't even live with them so how does he know they have been practicing speeches - did someone tell him?

I thought they wouldn't be there when the two backstage people didn't mention them outside.

Well... lets see if they will be there tonight.

Distinguished Company

January 31, 2010 - 2:13am
By Bruce Britt
Leave it to Leonard Cohen, perhaps contemporary music's greatest living musical poet, to sum up the spirit of the Special Merit Awards Ceremony during his Lifetime Achievement Award acceptance speech Saturday at the Wilshire Ebell Theatre in Los Angeles. Dressed in a black suit and speaking in his trademark vampire baritone, the stubbly singer/songwriter thanked The Recording Academy for allowing him to be a part of "this distinguished company…as we make our way to the finish line that some of us have already crossed."

Sobering words. If we are to take away anything from Michael Jackson's senseless, unexpected death last year at age 50, it's that we must appreciate our heroes and loved ones before, and after, they cross over into the unknowable beyond. Appreciation is exactly what the annual Special Merit Awards are all about, and The Academy honored 12 legendary artists, innovators, companies, and behind-the-scenes technicians whose timeless works have helped improve the quality of lives worldwide.

Though Cohen's poetic, fateful words resounded throughout the event, other recipients delivered insightful stories and jokes that appealed more to the funny bone. A frail Clark Terry had to be helped to the stage, but not even illness could dampen the trumpeter's indomitable comic spirit. Hobbling down the stage in his wheelchair, the iconic jazz trumpeter joked that he was going to "keep doing it" until he got it right. Summing up his career, Delta blues singer/guitarist David "Honeyboy" Edwards stated that he "played a lot of blues out there…and I’m still 'knocking 'em dead." The son of late Scepter Records founder Florence Greenberg, who was there to accept a Trustees Award on her behalf, reminisced that "if you called her 'mother' at the office, our pay got docked."

Accepting the Lifetime Achievement Award for the late Bobby Darin, Dodd Darin struggled to compose himself as he remembered his dad. Flanked by his two school-aged daughters, Dodd shared how his multi-talented father was outraged that blacks were not allowed to perform at New York's legendary Copacabana, and recounted how he insisted black comic George Kirby open his show at the nightspot. The club's owner balked at the request, but Darin stood his ground and prevailed.

When the ancestors of phonograph inventor Thomas Alva Edison and country singer Loretta Lynn took the stage to accept awards for their famous elders, you couldn't help but think of their distinguished heredity. A Technical GRAMMY Award was given to pro audio company AKG Acoustics, the award-winning subsidiary of Harman International. Classical conductor/pianist André Previn (accepting his award via video presentation), country producer/guitarist Harold Bradley, and longtime GRAMMY telecast producer Walter C. Miller jammed the hilarity meter with their wry speeches.

Finally, former Michael Jackson manager Frank DiLeo took the stage to accept the Lifetime Achievement Award for his late client. Accepting the award for Jackson's three children, DiLeo told the hushed crowd the King of Pop had a tremendous sense of humor, which the singer would reveal when he watched the GRAMMYs. As DiLeo recalled, Jackson would phone him after a particularly weird acceptance speech and say, "Do you believe what that guy just said?" 


"Then he would laugh and hang up," DiLeo said.



While Jackson has crossed Cohen's proverbial finish line, his work — along with that of the rest of this year's Special Merit Awards class — will be appreciated and celebrated for many years to come.
