Manhattan, can you explain why you keep pasting in Ferrante's posts repeated, and sometimes even whole threads?

Jay-Z, McCartney, Linkin Park Team Up

When Jay-Z walked onto the stage wearing a John Lennon T-shirt underneath his gleaming white suit, it was a hint of the Grammy Awards' oddest mashup of the night.

The rap superstar performed a duet of "Numb/Encore" with Linkin Park. Earlier, when it won a Grammy for best rap-song collaboration, Linkin Park singer Mike Shinoda (sic- should be Chester Bennington) thanked "everyone in our management and legal teams that made this record possible, because it was a nightmare."

It certainly looked like a business transaction, because Jay-Z and Linkin Park had zero chemistry, barely acknowledging each other onstage.

Toward the end, Shinoda (sic- Chester) oddly sang a verse of the Beatles' "Yesterday," and that was the second hint. Soon after, Paul McCartney himself walked out to finish the song.

There they stood - the rock legend, hard rockers from a few generations after and a rap mogul. McCartney and Shinoda (sic-Chester) sang together, with Jay-Z adding "that's right" a few times afterward.

They ended the song arm-in-arm, standing under a portrait of the late Coretta Scott King.

it was so horrible to watch if you liked it you're dumber than you seem.

Has anyone else noticed the photos of Keith and Mick in the background during the Jay-Z-Macca performance, or was it just my imagination

Hey shearer, you're a little bit crazy. How old are you?
Beatles are good, rolling stones are good and there are plenty of really good bands.
If the beatles doesn't exist, this is not our fault, not the fault of the stones too but the Beatles fault.
What is your probleme. You can't see the beatles. OK us too,and we can't see jimi hendrix too and a lot of others great guys.
Perhaps "you're just a jealous guy"

He's never had sex. I should know, I'm a doctor.

Helter is a stupid simple son. It just plain sucks. I put it on AMerican Idol when he did that.

Helter Skelter...what a boring piece of noise. Give me Rip This Joint!
