#MusicMonday: The Oscars Musical Moments.

In case you happened to be living under a rock last night, everyone and their mom was tuned into the 86th Annual Academy Awards show, better known as The Oscars.

While there were a number of memorable moments last night, including some from the ever so funny host Ellen DeGeneres, the performances are what I’m here to discuss! Can you believe that in the 4 hour long show, there were only 6 performances?!? I know it’s not The Grammy’s but my goodness.

Check out my top three favs below:

So I couldn’t decide between these 2 performances so they’re tied at 3

3. Bette Midler- Wind Beneath My Wings

Let’s just not even talk about how this song is amazing, and extremely emotional, but the fact they got the legendary Bette Midler to perform it just makes it even more amazing! Go ahead and grab a tissue then click play. (Starts at 3:50)



3. Idina Menzel- Let It Go

Now I’m not sure if this made the list because I felt bad at how John Travolta butchered her name in her introduction or if it’s because I love this song more than I’m wiling to admit. Either way, after her announcement of divorcing Taye Diggs last year, Menzel definitely has a hit on her hands. I can’t even remember what life was like before I heard this song— it’s EVERYWHERE! Catch Menzel’s performance below and let me know what you think!

#MusicMonday- The Grammy's

Last night, the who's who of music gathered together to celebrate the epicness that was 2013! All with hopes of taking home one of those gold sippy cups grand awards.
This post could go in a number of different directions, from the fashions of last night to the fact that it was an extremely long show; but for now, I'll just write about the performances.
There were a ton of performances at The Grammy's and a few that weren't so memorable, but we won't get in to that.
Catch a few of my favs below:

• Kendrick Lamar and Imagine Dragons- I'd say this performance is easily one of the best from last night. It's also a modern day Linkin Park/Jay-Z collab from a decade ago (my goodness I'm old).

• The Carter's- Pretty sure everyone was looking forward to this performance, but if you weren't then you obviously don't love yourself. Jay and Bey opened the awards show letting America know they're a little drunk in love. (SN: I really do love how in love they are. I think last night was the most PDA I've seen from them at an awards show.)

• Katy Perry and Juicy J- Although some people think Katy's set was something out of a middle school play production, I thought all the props went with the theme of her song "Dark Horse". And it looks like she's been hanging out with Rih too long. Did ya'll peep her dropping and shaking it on the witch's broom pole in the background? Hmm hmm I see you, Katy.
