Record of the Year = Vinyl (as in singles)
Album of the Year = CD (as in full albums)

List is full of fail, and what's with stuff from years ago being up for nomination?


The nomination period started in October of 08 I believe.

Jeff Beck's performance was cool, DMB wasn't bad either. They can't even get the mainstream stuff right anymore, jesus. I Got A Feeling is the most annoying song I've ever heard. let's just have the same synth beat over and over and yell random shit over top. GOOD IDEA

zac brown band actually sounded pretty cool when they played. they weren't amazing, but they have way more talent than any of these other bands.

i'm glad colbert won, even though i would have preferred patton oswalt. they could have easily messed up the comedy albums too with george lopez, kathy griffin, and weird al being the nominees.

oh yeah, fuck ac/dc for winning shit with black ice. that pisses me off the most.

I'm sorry but this is just god damn awful; I mean 21st century breakdown best rock album? I can name at least 20 rock albums that are miles better than that atrocity. And 'Use Somebody' as well as 'Run This Town' are not even that good. The comments they made about Green Day were god damn hilarious.

GaGa was on top this whole year and a lot more impressive than anything Beyonce is doing, and Swift only won because of the Kanye incident IMO

they're a country band who released a song called 'chicken fried' which was played at EVERY single party my senior year of high school. it got old quick. guy's got an awsome beard though.

I missed the Grammys so this is the first i've heard on the winners. Pretty much knew Swift would come away with Album of the Year.

It pains me, I pretty much disagree with this entire list. Gaga should have beaten Beyonce for certain and dont get me started on 21st Century Breakdown or Black Ice...

all i have to say is BEP's beat out Depeche Mode for Best Short Form Music Video?! are you f-ing kidding me???? they are talentless and yet everyone continues to kiss their tone-deaf, horrible asses. they dont deserve to win sh!t.

and whatever little respect i had left for greenday was immediately lost when i heard theyre doing a musical for american idiot. f-ing terrible...

Taylor Swift can not sing, it shows live. Poor Stevie, she looked really uncomfortable beside that twat.
Tarantino's intro was incredible. His insincerity and sarcasm were hilarious.
Jeff Beck did great, as did the Zac Brown Band and Dave Matthews... who should've won Album of the Year.

Pretty much sums it up. Lol at Judas Priest winning for metal performance. Or even being nominated for that matter. I thought for sure Crack the Skye would get a nom, but the academy is too dumb to even do that.

What confuses me is how Lady Gaga can't win best new artist, but the Silversun Pickups can (who have been around for wayyy longer then Gaga). I hear the logic is that she already won a Grammy last year for a song but still, is it best new "grammy noticed" artist then? I think that's kinda lame.

well i actually just youtubed their name now and i vaguely remember hearing the song use somebody. it's kinda bland though-the staff review seems to suggest its better otherwise. and i suppose having a younger sister who would blast top 40 (taylor, beyonce, black eye peas etc.) so it all kinda was forced in like that -.- but yea no recollection of kol from it.


and the fact that phoenix won something makes me a happy camper, though seriously-after getting over how inaccurate the grammys are. the whole thing just seems so strange

I want Kathy Griffin to win--hopefully she'd bash the celebs...

But in all fairness who would you have voted for? The Fame is not, as her fans claim, 'ground breaking'. Sasha Fierce has a few good tunes. The E.N.D...this is what they came up with as filler? WTF! DMB...maybe but nothing is as shamelessly dear and honest as Taylor Swift's Fearless even though she did mess up her stupid stevie nicks duet.

Oh well. It's the Grammys, not the Nobel Peace Prize...wait...(thinking of Obama's win, Al Gore's win over Irena Sendler)...it's an award...

At least we all have control over our own iPods...
