We'll also count down our 10 favorite movie soundtracks, and, as always, give you a five-song playlist to renew your passion for music.

Well, we tried. Kind of. Since we loved last year’s show so much, we thought we’d try to watch the 2026 edition of The Grammys and react live. Due to technical difficulties (and for our own mental health) we only made through the first 45 minutes. Find out if we’re finally, actually, too old for this stuff.What did you think of the 2026 Grammys?

Then it’s time for us to count down our ten favorite vocalists and, as always, leave you with a five-song playlist to renew your passion for music.

Plus, we count down our favorite music moments from 2025, leaving you with at least THREE playlists to renew your passion for music.
