Quote: Best Pop Duo/Group Performance Coldplay - Paradise “Body And Soul” — Tony Bennett & Amy Winehouse “Dearest” — The Black Keys “Pumped Up Kicks” — Foster The People “Moves Like Jagger” — Maroon 5 & Christina Aguilera Best Rock Performance “Every Teardrop Is A Waterfall” — Coldplay “Down By The Water” — The Decemberists “Walk” — Foo Fighters “The Cave” — Mumford & Sons “Lotus Flower” — Radiohead Best Rock Song The Cave - Mumford & Sons Down By The Water - The Decemberists Every Teardrop Is A Waterfall - Coldplay Lotus Flower - Radiohead Walk - Foo Fighters tough competition on both with Maroon 5 's super hit and also Fosters great song.. and radiohead in rock with Mumford and sons |
very tough, but I thin they'll take at least one :)
Best rock performance! :) |
hopefully! next year they should get more more noms!
|
They definitely got three total, right?
|
Yup, it's three. Best Rock Song for ETIAW.
|
I bet it will win one for ETIAW. Critics seemed to like it.
Paradise won't win because it's up against an Amy Winehouse/Tony Bennett duet, and postmortem Grammys are really common. |
Tough tough tough.
|
I guarantee you "Pumped Up Kicks" will win. It's so hipster nowadays.
|
Pumped Up Kicks is horrible.
People only like it because it glorifies school violence in a fun, catchy kind of way. You know, the way school shootings are meant to liven things up. |
It's a shame they released MX so late, come 2013 it'll be largely forgotten.
|
Quote: Yeah, it will definitely be snubbed. Like Kanye was. I think the Academy is trying to bring in more viewers so they let people like Taylor Swift WIN album of the year, and nominate Rihanna for it over Radiohead and Kanye West. Needless to say, since they're clearly full of shit, I won't be watching. SPOILER ALERT:
Spoiler
There. Now you don't have to watch! :nice: |
Actually, with their HUGE MX tour, they clearly won't be forgotten. With all the songs they'll release plus radio play and the concerts, MX will not be forgotten.
|
Great news, they deserve it! Shame MX is ineligible though!
|
Quote:nom nom nom? |
Quote: How in the world is Foster the People hipster? |
Quote: |
Do you think Coldplay will perform at the Grammys this year?
|
oooh maybe another appearance? and radiohead as well. wow so many great bands nominated this year, it will be an exciting show
|
So MX was released too late to be nominated this year?
I like Adele but if she wins Album, Record and Song of the year she will be the epitome of overrated. :rolleyes: Also, I can't believe that Kanye's Fanatasy wasn't nominated for Album of the year, I'd go with that for 2010. 2011 is all about MX. Maybe it's gonna be nominated next year. Which is even better since Adele will be out of the picture. :awesome: |
Every Teardrop Is A Waterfall, rock?! Don't get me wrong, I love the song, but's it's very pop for me.
|
Quote: The Grammys have lost all legitimacy. Rihanna for album of the year? Again?! She's a singles "artist", she doesn't have any #1 albums. "Aritist" cause she doesn't write her own songs. |
Nomination of the 54th Grammy Awards

Quote: Well there are awards for writers and performers, I don't mind about that. About the album I couldn't agree more, Loud is more like a greatest hits collection than an album. For me the only record she released I consider as an propper album is Rated R. And one thing I don't like about the Grammys are all those country categories, I HATE country songs. But I still think it's music's Oscars so.... |
Quote: I consider them the music's Oscars too, but they are really starting to become ratings whores. For example, The Black Eyed Peas and David Guetta should have never ever won any Grammy awards. Well, the Peas used to be OK, but now they have become obnoxious, as well as mr Faguetta. :lol: As for the country albums, Taylor Swift winning album of the year was also a major minus for their credibility. :D I feel there shouldn't be as many rap categories. There are some idiots out there that shouldn't have the pleasure of even being nominated (Flo Rida). :dash: U2 is the band with the most Grammy awards (22), including 2 albums and 2 records of the year. Overrated much? |
Bleugh, ETIAW doesn't deserve winning those awards. Paradise one I could be ok with.
|
Quote: You beat me to it, Ian!:lol: I like most of the nominees in these categories, so won't be unhappy no matter who wins...with one exception,lol. But as for the Grammys losing credibility? This is the same academy that created a 'Best Metal' category the year Metallica's Black album came out, then gave the award to JETHRO TULL! That ship sailed a long time ago. (Don't get me wrong, I love Tull, but they're about as Heavy Metal as ETIAW is Rock. :P) |
Quote: PSH. Coldplay doesn't deserve to win in any of these categories. Too bad the Grammy's don't really care about such things. Quote: LOLWUT. Quote: It's by far Foster the People's worst song. :nod: The rest of their album is pretty soling, though. Quote: I'm glad someone else feels that way. |
If Every Teardrop wins Best Rock Song(writer award), will Peter Allen and Adriane be credited as winners too?
|
Glad to see them nominated for something. Here's my theory: The Grammys love women artists, they'll give every Grammy they have to Adele. Just like for Amy Winehouse, Lauryn Hill, Norah Jones, Taylor Swift, etc. I'm glad MX will not be going against Adele's album. It would have lost.
Next year, when MX is eligible, I fancy they'll give Album of the Year to Coldplay, since they lost (tragically, I think) in 2009 to Robert Plant and Alison Krauss of all people (part oldy but goody and part female artist, Grammy loves both of those). It will be like when U2 won for some crappy, unmemorable album when it lost the album prior to that, which is should have won for. I can make a flow chart if anyone needs one! |
I'm not remotely surprised that the Plant/Kraus album one, and for once I thought the right album won. Of course, I'd always prefer to see Coldplay win, but that wqas a well-crafted and well-produced album.
Much more worthy than Rihanna or Taylor Swift!:p |
I hope ETIAW wins both of it's awards, amazing song :)
|
What do you think about Teardrop - Lotus head to head?
Which one will win/which one do you want to win? |
Quote: To be honest, ETIAW will probably win. Critics love it, and Radiohead are always snubbed. But LF should win. |
Every Teardrop should win on both awards and Paradise could, I think Moves Like Jagger will take Duo/Group Pop
|
Quote: Not if there is a God or any kind justice under the sky. :awesome: Maybe Amy and Tony... I think Paradise should win in its category, Teardrop should win best "rock" song, and Lotus should have been nominated for best alternative song, and win. |
^Unfortunately Gramys aren't usually fair....:(
|
Quote: Oh God that song is the worst. I remember when Maroon 5 used to be GOOD! ca. 2003 :sad: |
^I just think they'll win, I don't want to... Theire third album sucks
|
Quote: Their only good album was the first. The second was meh. And the third one is REALLY bad. Like, Nickelback bad. The first one totally deserved the Grammys it got though. Awesome, awesome pop record. |
