2009 Grammy Nominations

Congratulations Beatles!

 

I am so proud of our boys for their Grammy nomination for Record of the Year for "Now and Then."  It is extremely exciting that 60 years after their first Grammy nomination, they are once again in the running for an award!   

They have some really difficult competition, and the Grammy Awards have never really been kind to the Beatles.  They typically have not won a whole lot.   But -- while many of the artists that are nominated in the same category as the Beatles are good -- are they good enough to have another Grammy nomination in 60 years?  I believe only the Beatles are THAT good. 

A lifetime of achievement

Grammy Night

 

Remembering Olivia Newton John

 

I am sure everyone joins me in the sadness of hearing that the talented and beautiful Olivia Newton-John.   I really admire the courage and outspokenness she had in regards to having cancer three times.   She really will remain a role model for everyone who is going through a terminal illness.  It is so sad that she is no longer here, but her movies and music will not be forgotten. 

I couldn't help but think of the 1975 Grammy Awards when she won Record of the Year for the song "Honestly I love you."   John Lennon and Paul Simon were the presenters for this award and hilariously the award was accepted by none other than Art Garfunkel because Olivia was not there in person.    It is a shame that she was not there, as I am sure that John Lennon would have liked to have met her.   Apparently, John was a fan and especially enjoyed her song, "Magic"(although that song wasn't released until 1980).

She covered a few Beatles songs and even some George Harrison songs over the years, but I could not find any photographs of her with one of the Beatles (although I would have thought she met Paul at one point in her life).
