ECHO Awards 2009

Tonight we watched the Echo Awards, which is basically the German version of the Grammy Awards, but with no commercials and more/better live performances.  Even though I didn't understand it all, it was quite entertaining and I was able to see one of my favorite bands perform.  To see their performance, click here.  I also thought Katy Perry did a great job as well with her acoustic version of Thinking of You.  To see her performance, click here.  The show ended with a Lifetime Achievement award and performance by The Scorpions, though not my kind of music in general, they sounded fantastic.  My new favorite band didn't win anything, but you can watch their videos by clicking here and here.  And although this song, Scheiß Liebe, was not nominated, I really like this band, LaFee, and their sound.  To see the video, click here.  By the way, the song title in English is Sh*t Love for those of you wondering.
