Administrator Toups Posted December 3, 2009 Administrator Share Posted December 3, 2009 http://www.grammy.com/grammy_awards/52nd_show/list.aspx I'm a big Taylor Swift fan so hooray!!! Hope she takes hope Album of the Year and Best Country Album - those are the ones I want out of all her nominations. Happy for Beyonce, Lady Gaga and Kings of Leon too. I think "Use Somebody" will take Record of the Year and "Single Ladies" for Song of The Year. I hope Keri Hilson wins Best New Artist - too bad Lady Gaga was ineligible cause I think she would've won this if she was. I would've liked it better if LG's "Paparazzi" was nominated instead of "Poker Face". I didn't like BEP getting a nod for Album of the Year - I thought they only had 4 good songs to listen to, the rest was pretty bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Shawn Posted December 3, 2009 Members Share Posted December 3, 2009 I hope Kelly wins for Best Pop Album. It'd be MUCH deserved. However, I think "My Life Would Suck Without You" should have gotten a Best Pop Song nod. Congrats to Britney for her nomination. I really want to know why the voters have such a hard on for Beyonce. She's so incredibly overrated IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Toups Posted February 1, 2010 Author Administrator Share Posted February 1, 2010 WOOOOHOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm just so happy right now. I don't think I've ever been happy for a music artist winning a music award - maybe because I never really cared before. I just wanted her to win Best Album so badly because it's one of my fav albums of all time. This is just the beginning of a long great career. So happy for my Taylor Swift...my T-Swizzle. Got these right too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted February 1, 2010 Members Share Posted February 1, 2010 I'm happy for Swift too, out of all those nominated for Album of The Year, her album had both the most commercial and critical success in 2009. I can't say I'm a HUGE FAN, but considering the competition, she had the best shot of winning. Swift is now the youngest person to ever win Album of the Year. Though really, the Grammy's have lost a lot of their credibility in recent years, but they still carry some prestige. Here's a list of all the winners in every category: http://www.nytimes.com/2010/02/01/arts/music/01grammylist.html?pagewanted=all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Sylph Posted February 1, 2010 Members Share Posted February 1, 2010 I can't believe Beyoncé swept the show with 6 awards. I would only give her the award for Vocal Performance. Then again, she didn't have much of a competition, did she? She's gonna win next year too, probably. Single Ladies song of the year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members EricMontreal22 Posted February 1, 2010 Members Share Posted February 1, 2010 Hasn't Single Ladies existed for far over a year? Or is that just the overexposure that has me thinking that. Taylor Swift is lovely, and is a talented songwriter, but MAN she needs to really step it up and work on her live vocals. I can't imagine sitting through a whole concert of her singing flat.

Members lovely_m Posted February 1, 2010 Members Share Posted February 1, 2010 How was Lady GaGa ineligible to win Best New Artist? I recall one year Shelby Lynn won the award and she had 6 or 10 albums out by that time. So now Beyonce has more Grammys in one showing for female performer than Alicia Keys, Lauren Hill and Norah Jones. I wish they would put Beyonce only in the pop category or the R&B category and not both. Can someone please tell me what hell is the difference between Song of the Year and Record of the Year?

Members bellcurve Posted February 1, 2010 Members Share Posted February 1, 2010 I don't know, but I wish she'd return with something, anything. I loved her Unplugged Album. It was like listening to a nervous breakdown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Sylph Posted February 1, 2010 Members Share Posted February 1, 2010 I can't believe 12 passed since Miseducation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members bellcurve Posted February 1, 2010 Members Share Posted February 1, 2010 Miseducation was R&B Perfection. A perfect blend of inspiration, fun dance songs, love songs and still holds up well even today. But then again, R&B hasn't changed that much since the 90's. But I respect Lauryn for pulling out when she did. Her next studio creation, under the conditions she was put under would have been awful. You can't make a wannabe acoustic artist become a studio creation. Not to say that "Unplugged" was brilliant or even better than Miseducation. But I have mad respect for her leaving the money and fame behind to keep what she views as her self-respect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted February 1, 2010 Members Share Posted February 1, 2010 I believe Song of the Year is meant for the songwriters, and Record of The Year is meant for the artists who performed the song. Though, they often overlap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
