I've seen a video of him accepting it a long time ago. I think it was Elton John that presented him the Grammy. I could be wrong though!!

There was some controversy over the award, because all the artists that were nominated were male, and the females weren't happy so they objected.

Maybe my memory is deceiving me but wasn't that a Brit Award?

That was the Brit award in 1994 he got for best selling single (AFL in 1993).

He got it straight after this performance (not on the video unfortunately)
YouTube Video


Acceptance speech is here.

No offence to anyone but I personally think 1994 was probably a little too early for the USA to cope with having two gay men present such a prestigieus event anyway but I could be wrong.

It were the 36th Grammy Awards, as far as I remember. I have footage of Meat at the Grammys somewhere, I think it was the press conference after the show.

Wario 19 Sep 2010 04:24

still sad he never got to do AFL at the grammies.

as for the brit awards exception speech ive seen it. sadly thats incomplete. It cuts off. He mentions Jim too at the end.

But, WarieL, what does that have to do with presenting a Grammy ? ... :? ...

AndrewG 19 Sep 2010 15:18

It's not so much the government, more what's acceptable to be shown on the networks. I'm not saying this is the case now. CBS and Fox don't exactly have a great pro gay track record as far as I'm aware. 1994 was quite a while back in that sense. This is my opinion, if you disagree with it, fine.

Why does tink keep calling WarioLoaf WarieL? It sounds like a laundry detergent. Lol.

That's one of my favourite Meat clips ever, it was the first footage I recorded when i was 8...used to kill me every time he walked down those steps! :lol:

AndrewG 19 Sep 2010 15:30

There was a huge sense of coolness surrounding him I thought! :-)

LucyK! 19 Sep 2010 15:34

Yeah it really was effortless :up:

Couldn't agree more. I recorded this on VHS too when I was about 13 and I'd watch it over and over. That cool but determined look on his face as he walked down those stairs and then gave that point to the crowd. All against the awesome sound of that AFL intro - used to give me goosebumps watching it.
