Bruno Mars' performance was awesome. He used a little bit of "Who's Loving You" by Jackson 5 <object width="480" height="270"><param name="movie" value="http://www.dailymotion.com/swf/video/xh0tft"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always"></param><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" src="http://www.dailymotion.com/swf/video/xh0tft" width="480" height="270" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always"></embed></object><br /><b><a href="http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xh0tft_2112132494_webcam" target="_blank">2112132494</a></b><br /><i>Uploaded by <a href="http://www.dailymotion.com/yardie4lifever2" target="_blank">yardie4lifever2</a>. - <a target="_blank" href="http://www.dailymotion.com/us/channel/webcam">More video blogs and vloggers.</a></i>

Best performance of the night by far, everyone went crazy, lyrics were sick, chorus was amazing, and Eminem's emotions really blew up in this too.
Hmm. Reminds me of this. <iframe title="YouTube video player" width="480" height="390" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/gQPN3UKQM-U" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
Never heard an Arcade Fire song until tonight. I don't like them at all. Maybe I'm just not hip enough.

Wow. I would pretend I had never ever heard of this horrific band. That wasn't even music. It was an abomination. It also ends the age old question: What does this music need? Dirt bikes!
I find no pleasure in listening to Arcade Fire, or indie music in general. It seems lately, that everything that indie stands for, too, is being taken away from it by the media. Maybe I have the "indie scene" all wrong, though. On the other hand, Mumford and Sons owns you all. I see them developing a Dave Matthews'-like following very, very soon.
I thought the Iron Maiden or Rush documentaries should have won in the Long Form Music Video category. Of course, it goes to the Doors video. I hated that documentary. I had to turn it off when I was watching it because I thought it fell flat and was totally boring. Why can't we get a doc winner for a band who isn't way past their expiration date?
Really glad to see Arcade Fire win album of the year. For anyone that has actually listened to it, it's hard to argue against it. Although this officially marks the beginning of every Affliction wearing bro claiming they are huge AF fans, I'll just have to live with it. They deserve the success.
