  4. Real speech was censored and has been removed from Youtube a many times.
    Thankyou soo much everyone for making this song explode because this world
    is mental. (Laughter). Planet Earth is run by psychopaths that hide behind
    slick marketing, ‘freedom’ propaganda and ‘economic growth’ rhetoric,[1]
    while they construct a global system of corporatized totalitarianism.
    As American journalist Chris Hedges has identified, a corporate
    totalitarian core thrives inside a fictitious democratic shell.[2] This
    core yields an ‘inverted’ totalitarian state that few recognize because it
    does not look like the Orwellian world of Nineteen Eighty-four.[3]
    This corporate totalitarian core is spreading outward from America. Planet
    Earth is being rapidly militarized by the world’s major and significant
    states, including their police forces.[4] Meanwhile, state surveillance is
    becoming universal[5] and torture is outsourced to gulags.[6]
    Can we not imagine that in past times, simple folk found it hard to work
    out exactly how they were being manipulated by the Royal monarchies, and
    the Papal monarchy, who claimed a ‘divine right to rule’? Ordinary people
    from classical times through to the demise of Ancien Regime could not see
    how the rivalrous network of elites and oligarchs were linked, not least
    because the illiterate masses were indoctrinated to believe in their humble
    lot, to obey divinely-endorsed authority and to live in fear of damnation.
    So, in today’s mental world, it should become clearer now that Planet Earth
    is ruled by super-wealthy people, who use their outrageous fortunes to
    steer the trajectories of whole societies for their own material and
    political gain.[7] These oligarchs are, in fact, colluding for economic
    gain and conspiring to augment more political power.[8] Armies of
    professional, political, religious and military elites serve them.[9
    Together, they comprise a highly-networked transnational capitalist class
    that has been traced in studies by: Peter Phillips and Brady Osborne;[10]
    William K. Carroll;[11] David Rothkopf;[12] Daniel Estulin;[13] and
    Laurence H. Shoup and William Minter.[14]
    As Canadian journalist Naomi Klein has argued in her book, The Shock
    Doctrine: The Rise of Disaster Capitalism, ‘free markets’ were slickly
    marketed in the 1980s and 1990s with the idea that they would deliver
    individual freedom and prosperity for all.[15] Klein also wrote that the
    use of military violence to facilitate the spread of ‘free markets’ in the
    field-testing stage from the mid-1960s to the mid-1970s has continued into
    the 2000s. Her view is supported in Eugene Jarecki’s documentary Why We
    Fight (2006), which compellingly showed that America fights wars to make
    the world secure for its corporations.[16] So, get reading and viewing!
    (Lorde giggles and half the audience rises to their feet applauding. The
    other half remain fixed in their chairs. Some reluctantly clap).

    Thankyou soo much everyone for giving a shit about our song, ‘Royals’. May
    you all find the balls to help construct a world based on resilient
    community, bona-fide freedom, and peace. To do that, we will need to
    redeploy the psychopaths that currently run the world to the planet’s
    prisons.[17] Peace cannot happen with reconciliation. That was Nelson
    Mandela’s mistake.[18] The first step to peace is justice firmly served.?

  5. I’m extremely happy that Lode won. I wouldn’t have minded if Macklemore won
    either, because these two songs are the best lyrically. They bot convey a
    much better message than the other songs in its category.?

  11. Lorde isn’t going to be around for long. Remeber Gotye? He’s just somebody
    we use to know. Don’t believe me and everyone may bitch me out and dislike
    this comment, but just wait for it.?

  16. I knew Regina wasn’t gonna win but jus so happy to see my fave musician get
    nominated…even though I didn’t much like the song which was nominated, I
    mean Devil Come To Bethlehem, A Cooler Version Of Myself, AB, The Virgin
    Queen, Loveology and all the amazing song Regina never properly recorded in
    the studio all deserve some kinds of awards ?

  18. Katy Perry said in like five different interviews that she wishes pop
    starlets would
    “put it away” and stop showing so much skin…then she’s on GQ with ALL of
    her bits out and pole dancing and the grammys? Not hypocritical at all!?

  20. I would like to point out that Wayne Shorter got an award for the Best
    Improvised Solo, and Snarky Puppy with Lalah Hathaway got the award for the
    Best R&B Performance. But who cares, because the Grammys are about glitz
    and glamour and not TRUE MUSICIANSHIP.?

  21. Lorde is the best. So happy to see her win 2 Grammy’s, she deserves it. Her
    album is one of the few I can actually connect to (Cause I’m a 17 year old
    twit who doesn’t know shit about life outside of the suburbs!). Daft Punk
    is also great, amazing album. Imagine Dragons also amazing, I listened to
    their album before it got big and was wondering when they would get
    recognized, well here they are. Definitely sick of Radioactive though lol.?

  25. Nobody talked about Katy Perry’s performance. I’m not surprised though.
    Even though the song is good it was kind of a forgettable performance. ?

  29. The Grammys just aren’t even entertaining to watch for me..People were not
    classy and seemed too drunk. also I’m not a big fan of the music today, but
    some songs that were up for awards are pretty catchy, But that’s it. Not
    award worthy. I agree with what Brett said. It seems like music is made to
    entertain with flashy lights nowadays, not the feelings the artist wants to
    put out.?

  31. Highlights: Kendrick Lamar/Imagine Dragons, Daft Punk, Pink’s acrobatics,
    Goth chicks (Lorde, Katy Perry- though her song selection was pretty bad),
    Pharrell’s Smokey the Bear hat, Taylor Swift white girl dancing, Yoko Ono
    reaction shots,

    Lows: Beyonce/Jay-Z,
    Macklemore/Ryan Lewis (Too corny: Macklemore’s rapping sounded like a
    preacher at a Tyler Perry movie, what was Madonna doing there, and the
    marriages at the end felt far too manipulative- I laughed quite a bit
    during the performance….great message but a terrible performance),
    Ringo Star/Paul McCartney,
    cutting off Nine Inch Nails/Queens of the Stone Age/Dave Grohl
    collaboration for a commercial.?
