[QUOTE]Originally posted by Jay: [QB] Ah, yes. But Mr. Milly and Mr. Vanilly, their choreographer, their studio band, the guys who actually sang the songs, the fellows who made the music "drummier," (I loved that phrase [IMG]http://flare.solareclipse.net/smile.gif[/IMG]) and their personal trainers, as a collective won a Grammy. Milly Vanilly, like the BSB now, were produced out of whole cloth. They were a fabrication. An invention of producers who picked a look and fit the faces to what they wanted to that look. They then had someone else write songs that would appeal to a segment of the population and then had someone else play the actual music. All of which I think fans the flames of the gf's general "the BSB were up for a Grammy" argument. Which in and of itself leads to another agrument. The Grammys the last few years have been about record sales and not about music. Which is why the BSB were even up for one in the first place. The Grammys have given in to the evil that is Soundscan. A place where an album's sales somehow equates to inherent excellence. While the two are not exclusive, it is certainly a incorrect to say that simple sales equate to greatness. [/QB][/QUOTE]
