Justin and Kylie was cool.
I also like the Spice Girls one.

I could name better performances from artists I like more, but I love these ''WTF?!'' moments in any award show.

(Although there's nothing like the VMAs!)

I really can't remember many, I guess Ginger nearly revealing her tits and Jarvis Cocker mooning during Whacko's performance is about all I can...

I actually have to say Cheryl Cole's FFTL performance last year, really took me by surprise.

Oh yeah! I forgot about that performance!
Pre-recorded or not, it was a great performance.

How could I forget about that one! It was pretty awesome yeah, woulda liked to hear the proper songs though. Nonetheless, nice tribute to McQueen.

How did they even manage to get onto the Brits with... that?! Maybe it's me, wasn't born at this point. Part of me thanks my parents for that.

They were the biggest band in the UK at the time and so were pretty much guaranteed an appearance at the awards if they wanted it. At the time they had become disillusioned with making music and had pretty much decided to call it a day so they used the opportunity to basically stick two fingers up at the music industry by opening their big self-congratulatory shindig with a performance that could only be described as utter s**te.

I miss the KLF.

The ones I remember the most and are my faves are The Spice Girls-1997 and Take That and The Beatles Medley, where it starts off in black and white. I was a huge fan of both at the time.

This. It was amazing. I can't imagine what the original performance would have been.

Brilliance?

It was pure pretentious shite.
I know the message behind it was good, she did lose a friend, (and one of the most innovative designers in the world) but she really looked like she was trying to be something way more than she is.

I'll admit the 'dancing' was awful, but it wasn't shite.

What dancing?

The acoustic Telephone was bad, but then she looked like an utter fool with her keytar, the ultimate hipster toy so they can pretend they're all rockstars. Plus, her costume looked like Britney threw her frappucino over her.

The strange twisting and turning stuff she was doing.

I'm fairly sure she wet herself after realising she looked like a total eejit.

This

Bananarama performing Love in the first degree was interesting...it may have influenced Take That's royal variety performance of The Flood

Although it wasn't the most original performance, I liked VMAs 2009. A lot.

This performance really disappointed me.

The VMA's performance is definately the one to beat.

Totally.

She wasn't the first to do an orchestral remix of a song, or even the first to bleed to death on stage, but it was a great performance, and a great vocal performance. I hope she does something as good as that again.
