If you’ve been reading my blogs for a while now you’ll have learnt that I can’t go more than three weeks without making a Simpsons reference, so here it is.

Of course, it is Grammys season, with the music industry’s night of nights set for 8pm Monday 15th of February. Unless you’ve got Foxtel I don’t think you’ll be able to watch it in Australia, but let’s be honest who wants to watch the whole thing through when you can read up on the highlights the next day? (I’m just waiting for the Buzzfeed article “194 thoughts we had while watching the Grammys”.)

Of course, as usual there’s an award for outstanding music video, and I was surprised that of the five nominees I’d only seen one. I’m pleased with this, because it means that the awards aren’t just pandering to the most popular artists but are actually looking for videos with artistic merit.

The only video of the five I recognised was Taylor Swift’s Bad Blood, which anyone who knows me will tell you I have serious issues with (Yay! Women fulfilling traditional action hero roles . . . in skimpy clothes, high heels and full make-up . . .). So I’m hoping it won’t win, but the other four all look really interesting and deserving of their nominations, so I think it’ll be a tight contest. Check out the nominees here.

I’ll be interested to see the result – and what Kanye West has to say about it.
