The Suburbs was the album of the year (by many metrics) and the entire album is solid. That said the two songs they played at the Grammys were puzzling. I would also give them the worst performance(s) of the night. The album of the year isn't about performance and acting though so nice to see them win over the pretenders. Why are people getting so worked up about this? It is just the Grammys and the Brit Awards are tonight and nobody will remember anything about them in 2 months from now....I am just now starting to get sick of The Suburbs. It will always be summer 2010 to me though. Not an album that you toss aside after a month or two....Arcade Fire likely didn't want the Grammy to the same degree as many feel that they didn't deserve it....The Suburbs wasn't made for the Grammys and much of the lyrics spell that out quite clearly. Likely want to give the thing away to Bieber if they could
who you had to feel bad for as that is his thing.
