I'm a music fiend, and the Grammy Awards are my favorite of the year. I don't really care about the actual awards, but I love watching the performances. This year there were a couple that really blew me away.

The last minute tribute to Whitney Houston done by Jennifer Hudson was stunning. I'm not quite sure how she held it together to sing, because I was tearing up just watching it, but it was an absolutely beautiful rendition of "I Will Always Love You" and I think J-Hud has one of the best voices in the world.

Another one of my favorite voices belongs to Adele. A beautiful comeback just a few months after vocal chord surgery, and Adele proved to the world why she won six awards last night. We've all heard "Rolling In The Deep" more times than we can count, and yet it's still so captivating when she performs it.

I also am a huge fan of Bruno Mars, and I loved his performance of "Runaway Baby", which has long been my favorite song from his album Doo-Wops and Hooligans. Bruno has a great energy, and let's be honest, he's adorable.

I also really enjoyed Chris Brown's performance, but I'm not quite sure why he had a microphone on, because he obviously wasn't singing. He's a great dancer though.

Add in performances by the Foo Fighters, Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band, and Paul McCartney, and a reunion of The Beach Boys, and it was a pretty good night for performances.

As for Taylor Swift, Kelly Clarkson/Jason Aldean, and Nicki Minaj? Sorry, I just wasn't impressed.
