Did Anyone Watch The American Music Awards?

[DM72]

It's official, todays artist are not very good. Most of them actually lipsynced through their performances. What I'm seeing now is a bunch of overhyped wannabees. Gene Simmons was right, this was nothing more than a glorified karaoke show. I remember back in the days, rather you liked the artist or didn't, all the artist actually sung. And what is so appealing about Justin Bieber? That kid is a horrible singer. Heck, even Taylor Swift lipsynced. And as for Chris Brown? He can try, but he will NEVER be Michael Jackson.

All in all, the show was Horrible.

The show may have been horrible, but let me assure you - back in the day everyone lipsynced too. Including Michael Jackson.

Well, yeah, Bieber sucks.

You are talking about the AMA awards and post a video of the grammy awards ?

I get your point but that is lipsynched too. They have live mics but most of it is indeed fake.

I can post a AMA performance if you like and I don't think that was lipsynced. Heck, his mic even went out.

They have parts that they can improv on. Again, most of it is a recording.

Well, there's your problem, friend.

MJ has lipsynced in the past, like all dance acts do, but he did do more actual singing than most. Almost all the acts the other night were lipsyncing. I was actually more suprised that even Taylor Swift lipsynced considering she's not a dance act.

When he actually sang live it was better than his album versions IMO.. His shows were so full of energy that some of it had to be lipsynced. He was the best entertainer I've ever seen and blows anyone today out of the water.

I listen to the radio a lot more since I started driving to work, and I've realized over the last few weeks that new music is just not even interesting anymore. Most songs sound like the artists are just flat out bored, and they are just repeating the same beats and lyrics over and over again. I don't remember music being this boring (even if you thought it was bad) 3-4 years ago.

And I hate watching award show performances these days because they are much more about the spectacle - lights, pyro, acrobatics, dancing, etc - than the song.

(2012 AMA's)

Does any of these people have any class these days? Bieber wins the first award of the night and the first thing that comes out of his mouth is, "I'd like to address the haters?"

You got 60 minutes on and Sunday Night Football. There is no award show going on today.

You mean Walking Dead.

No Revenge this week because of the garbage ass AMAS.

Since I don't listen to a lot of the ultra popular stuff these days, I normally don't watch any of the awards shows, except for the Grammy's. I probably haven't seen a VMA show since '03, and I can't even remember the last time I saw an AMA. I try not to torture myself as much as possible.
