Now to find three heroes and heroines, or role models and why. Somehow I don't think teacher will accept 3 Musketeers. Bother

MTV Europe - European Music Awards

In which there is nary a European band, group or person in sight. Which sucks.

Pink was wow while performing.
Ditto Eminem.

BTW, can you seriously like Ja Rule and be allowed to be scathing about Nelly and Eminem. Silly cousin likes Ja Rule but can't stand the other two.

Moby was sweet. Sorry, he's small furry animal cute.

Shakira glows. I mean it, she radiates glow.

Meanwhile, on the guy spotting front, is it a bad sign when the sum total of good looking guys is the Red Hot Chili Peppers (who came up with the wierdest acceptance speech ever), Jon Bon Jovi, the tall one out of Dolce and Gabbana and Enrique Inglesias's guitarist.

The female front didn't fare much better, although Anastacia, Mel C and Pink in one shot is going to require some getting over.

Dear Enrique, I love you and all, but any future remixing of any of your songs with 'White Wedding' will result in me committing GBH on the TV. Don't do it.

Most of the awards I disagreed with (no shock there), but it worries me that the 3 awards that I had the most difficulty in choosing who I wanted to win were the Rock one, Hard Rock one, and the Hip Hop one. Two of those I can understand, but the love of hip hop, it's beyond me.

How the heck did Linkin Park beat Puddle of Mudd, Korn and System of a Down?

Marylin Manson appears for a couple of minutes and drags the whole thing down into the gutter in one line. Any wonder that I think he's great.

Missed the last hour, I'll catch it on the endless re-runs.

RHCP - EMA related note

Anyway, like I said they won, and made with the crazy acceptance speech. Anthony Kelidis (never can spell that man's name) had stuck the award down his trousers, the drummer was drumming and the other two were doing handstands in the background.

Of course you're all sane, my darlings.

Not

So anyway since they can't be there in person and it was for best live band so they showed them playing 'By The Way' somewhere. Not that I'm certain that it was 'By The Way', because my mind had gone to different places.

Thingymagigy the guitarist (don't ask me to spell his name) was playing in the middle of the stage and Flea gets down on his knees (quite how you do that without choking yourself on your bass strap is beyond me). And kisses Frusciante's hand. Not a rather over the top simulation of oral sex, not even an under the top simulation of oral sex, just a peck on the hand.

And I thought how sweet it was. Utterly and completely sweet.

Trying to reconcil my normally cynical self with the person who ended so astounded by aformentioned sweetness that she nearly hugged everyone in sight.
