The nominations are currently being announced the Record of the Year and the Pop Vocal categories are kinda making me want to cry just a little bit.

...yowch.

EDIT: Just checked, Record of The Year is awarded on the singer's performance. Still doesn't explain half the list.

Honestly, I'm not that big a fan of pop music, but there's seriously only one song on that list that doesn't make me say "Oh god I hate this song" every time I hear it.

Stay With Me is decent, and Take Me To Church is good. The rest are still shit.

Grammy people, you do realise that at the very least "Happy" was an option? If not... many other songs that deserve stuff like "Record Of The Year" and "Song Of The Year" more than Fancy and Shake It Off?

I'm not sure if it says more about Grammy priorities or myself when I say that that the """Alternative""" Music category actually looks pretty respectable compared to the rest.

Both the Song and Record categories are reminding me of the complaints about long-term memory issues people usually lob at the Oscars, isn't most of this stuff still in the top charts?

Well, I haven't heard Fancy in a while. That's about it.

Soundtrack Nominations are in. Aside from the two obvious ones, Wolf Of Wall Street, Get On Up and American Hustle get nods.

If you should happen to spot a mushroom-cloud on the horizon within the next hour then Album of the Year just got announced with no noms for Beyoncé.

Hah, don't underestimate they Bey-hive, they'd form their own military nation given the means.

The Best Music Video category is actually quite alright too, I'd be rather pleased with a Woodkid upset but all the contenders are quite solid (Turn Down for What, woot).

edit: Igloo Iggs nominated for Best Rap Album, dear god, imagine if she wins.

I really like Take Me To The Church, so I hope that wins. The rest in that catagory though, blegh.

Either Beck or Beyoncé, please, most likely it'll be the latter but we'll see, I guess.

...Please let Kendrick win Best Rap Song. If not him than Kanye. Please? They're the only good songs in the category.

Iggy will win everything. Maybe I could see Kendrick winning best song just because they took pity on him for last year when Macklemore won.

My only hope is that Aphex wins best electronic album, if only so that he'll have to show up on stage his usual unshaved, disheveled self and being completely unfazed by everything going on around him.

Assuming he'd even show up, he strikes me as the type to pull a The Knife and send people in monkey suits in his stead or something like that.

That would be more something that Boards of Canada would do, imo. Richard strikes me more as the kind of guy who would show up wearing jogging pants and a huge beard or pulling a troll move by sending Mike Paradinas and telling him to pretend to act like he's RDJ himself.

Turn Down For What is nominated for Best Music Video.

It's one of the worst videos I've ever seen.

Norah Jones, Arcade Fire, Bon Iver and Esperanda Spalding won Grammys in the past few years. I honestly think the Grammys can be unpredictable at times.

I'm honestly disappointed that Let It Go wasn't nominated for Record Of The Year or Song Of The Year. Or that the soundtrack wasn't nominated for Album of the Year.

I can't think of a single soundtrack that was ever nominated for album of the year.

Wait, Jennifer Hudson had a single this/last year?

Wait, Rap God is nominated for Best Rap Performance? I didn't see it in the OP link; Bound 2 was in its place.

"Stay With Me" is a song of the year nomination?

Oh my God... it is without a doubt the laziest, most impassionate song I've ever heard; why do people like that song?
