I never fell into the whole Alicia Keys thing, but after last nights Grammy's performance I am a believer.
The remix she did with her hit (and massively overplayed) song "No One" was brilliant. Maybe it was the Gospel background, the Timbaland like backbeat, the bevvy of classical violins, or just the familiarity of a chord from U2's "With or Without You," but I was ready to scream "Sing it, Sister!" at the top of my lungs.
Then John Mayer stepped into the picture.
WHY...............WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY John Mayer. Why ruin something that was so damn near perfect with his down syndrome ass.
I actually don't really hate his music ("Your Body is a Wonderland" is too damn cute not to love), but John Mayer himself (or his public persona) totally grosses me out. Plus, he didn't even come out and really sing, he just played a guitar riff. ANYONE can play a guitar riff. Anyone but John Mayer.
Nevertheless, her performance is still pretty amazing (minus the fake piano playing in the middle of the song).
