With how busy today was, I almost forgot all about this special holiday. I hope all of you are or have been spending time with your loved ones today and showing your appreciation for them. Tonight, I will be in the presence of some very lovely people and I wouldn’t have it any other way! What are all of you doing? I wanna know!
If you haven’t been on Google yet today, they’ve also got an extremely cute doodle. You can watch it below!
And as a treat to all of you…
here are ten of my favorite love songs for your listening pleasure. AWWWW!! You guys are the best! Have a great holiday!
Did anyone see Bruno Mars’ silly tantrum backstage after Adele won for best pop vocalist?
Chris Brown. Quit your lip synching or gtfo the stage.
I don’t think I could ever get sick of The Foo Fighters.
I actually enjoyed Dave Grohl’s speech and appreciate him for voicing his opinion, but it’s a shame they cut him off…
I could’ve sworn I saw a twinkle in Mark Foster’s eye when he was singing The Beach Boys’ “Wouldn’t It Be Nice.” My heart melted because it felt like he was just singing straight to me.
John Legend grooving to The Beach Boys was also quite adorable.
The Beach Boys are looking and sounding pretty great for their age! It feels like just yesterday I was watching them on that one episode of Full House.
Nope Chris Brown, we don’t have to forgive you. The Grammy’s can put you in our faces all they want, but I’m not budging.
Even though it wasn’t well received, I loved Taylor Swift’s dress during her performance of “Mean.” Now if I could only find out who the designer was…
Neil Patrick Harris is a babe.
I am still amazed by Katy Perry every time I hear anything about her and her music. Does anyone remember the poor review I gave her nearly two years ago? She’s grown as an artist definitely, but I’m not taking back anything I said. Her new song has potential for being the new girl anthem of 2012 though.
Adele SLAYED w/ her performance!
Bon Iver for Best New Artist – YAY! Great speech.
Jennifer Hudson’s tribute to Whitney Houston: Flawless
Nicki Minaj’s performance is not as family-friendly as I thought it would be. It was downright terrifying.
Adele is also the loveliest human being ever. What a doll! She totally deserved all of her awards tonight.
On an important related note, this HelloGiggles post about why people shouldn’t be okay with Chris Brown performing at the Grammy’s is quite insightful. I’ve had a similar opinion for awhile, but usually when I talk about that I make jabs at his performance and the more obvious scandal. This writer, however, has got some pretty solid facts and it is worth reading. And not to start something controversial, but the reason why that HelloGiggles post is mentioned on Yow Yow is so we can avoid things like this. It’s important for all of us to remember that there’s a border between a play on words or a play off pop culture, but this is not one of those times. It’s not cute anymore especially when it involves Chris Brown. Typing things like this out as a tweet is not the same as feeling the same way or wanting to be in that situation. Not being able to tell the difference between these things frightens me and makes me fear for the safety of other young women that have this notion in their head that it is okay to say these things.
I’m all giddy about weddings now! I cannot tear myself away from this website. John Legend is the artist of the day because his songs embody romance. I’ve always said that any gesture that involved John Legend was a winner in my book and I first said that while I was in high school and still believe it today.
Sorry that this video is just a bunch of random pictures. These videos always make me laugh. I wanted to find a live version or something other than this, but it’s all they had!

I’m writing my philosophy essay on love right now. Just to get myself in the mood I refined my iTunes library to only songs with “love” in the title. :) Best hardest paper I’ve ever written?
Funny story. This has actually been a really ROUGH day. Not only do I need to step up my academic game but also my life game as well.
I think I first heard of Josiah two years ago and I’ve been a fan ever since. He reminds me a lot of John Legend and David Ryan Harris so you should check him out at his Myspace.
