I stopped watching the VMAs the year that "Panic at the disco" won the video of the year award. I was sick and boycotted the channel. To this day I don't watch MTV.

Lorde wins Best Rock Video with Royals, what a joke. Granted the other nominees are crap but Royals certainly isn't rock. Apparently, Billboard describes anything alternative as rock, and "Royals" was very popular on the alternative charts and alternative radio.

Its not a bad song (I prefer Bruce Springsteen's version though) but rock it is not.

Okay, to clarify: almost every goddamn artist lip-synched, and even those that didn't were singing with accompanying piped-in vocal tracks. Still awful.

Its not a bad song (I prefer Bruce Springsteen's version though) but rock it is not. I can't begin to describe how much it bothered me a couple of months ago for the Billboard Music Awards. To me, it's basically a sophisticated pop song. Besides, "Team" is also very poppy. I'm going to have to hear Springsteen's version.
