December 3, 2009 at 10:15AM EST Reply to CommentHUGE congrats to Lady Gaga, the top artist of the year by a long shot, having put out some of the best singles but undoubtedly, the best album...even if it did come out in 2008...;) This woman is not only a brilliant performer, but an amazing songwriter and producer...and that voice!
Finally, the Grammy's get something right.
