Mind you, some of the audience were boringly stoney-faced, how can anyone possibly resist a show like that though? That was during "Evil woman", as would have been with any other ELO song... except for which one? Yeah, you guessed... Mr. Blue Sky! As soon as Jeff started to play that one everyone got up on their feet and started to dance. Fuck, I hate that. Jeff Lynne is a fucking genius, people, Mr. Blue Sky is nothing... you don't realize! Ok, who is that and why are you creeping me out? I agree with you on Mr Blue Sky. Took me awhile to even want to like it. If that makes sense?

That is a meme! Don't you know memes? That one in particular expresses exasperation towards a situation that one (supposedly) understands or realizes about while the others don't.
Yeah, I think that makes sense... so you now want to like it, but don't like it yet... is it like that?

It's kinda sort of like that, but a like in a different way than normal like. Something like that.
It has grown on me this past year. But, I don't crave hearing it. He screwed himself on this, I think. I do like the video for it!
Meme?

Jeff looked more comfortable up there than I had expected him to. It was fun seeing Taylor Swift and the girls from Haim grooving to Mr. Blue Sky. Just proves that not every person under 40 has bad taste in music lol. Someone can correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't that Jeff's first appearance at the Grammys since 1990, when he was nominated for the Wilbury and Tom Petty albums? Taylor and Haim were also seen dancing in a long shot of the crowd, during Evil Woman. I'm not at all surprised Haim are ELO fans. Their music has that great 70's pop sound all over it.

I just saw a great article about ELO playing the grammys. Interesting comments there, mostly supporting Jeff and not too keen on the rest of the show... Yahoo

YahooAnd when Katy Perry's hair colour takes the main stage to the "Music" we have problems. ....who here gives a flying f*** about "outfits" "hairdos" or "Dance routines"?!!!!. This is about the Grammys! They have turned a celebration of all that is audible into a visual circus containing untalented, self important, slaves and Idiots. They didn't know what to do with Prince, Jeff and the likes because. .......THEY ARE THE TALENT!

More like......"Accountants day off" Bahahaha! Great he doesn't do or have to do the "rock star" thing! Jeff looks the same as he did in '79....the difference between Rich in '79....well there's no comparison. Richard is great!

if they were thrown for a loop by Katie Perry's hair change, imagine if Jeff had performed w/o his shades! *heads-go-kaplooey*

I sat through the so-called highlights programme on Channel 4, it showed Sam Smith collecting every single one of his awards. But didn't show Jeff's performance, WTF?!!!!!
