And the winner is.....

Though Sly Stone's sparkling appearance (and surprising disappearance) might have been the most remarkable performance of the Grammys, it was U2 who stole the show. The veteran Irish rockers took home five awards, including an upset nod for Album of the Year with How to Dismantle an Atomic Bomb. (from Amazon)


Rock and Roll Hall of Fame members U2 captured the Grammy Award for album of the year for the disc ''How to Dismantle an Atomic Bomb.'' It was the band's second major award of the night, having won song of the year for ''Sometimes You Can't Make It on Your Own,'' one of the album's songs. (From AP new in Sifi, India)


Lead singer Bono explained earlier that the atomic bomb in the album's title referred to his father, whose death inspired many of its lyrics. ''This is really a big, big night for our band,'' Bono said.

U2 beat out Mariah Carey's best-selling ''The Emancipation of Mimi,'' shutting out the songbird from any of the major Grammy Awards in her comeback year. (from WIS SC)

Enough said.........

(go Bono go Bono go Bono - it's your birthday it's your birthday.... oh yea...)

EDIT: Okay - I was just reminded (by Burberrygirl) how HOT this guy still is!!!
Still a runner up to Bono and U2 - he is also the BOMB as my 8 yo would say!!!




And these guy - LOVE them... not too shabby.....

I like U2, but the only reason I watch the show is to see Paul McCartney! Oh man. I love him. Even though he doesn't sounds as good as before. I love his new song too.
