Grammy predictions(I'm not gonna write to long before I get mad)
By turboman 5 Comments
Let's do this:
first of all, I'm not even going to bother with the Genre awards, any idiot should know that the winner of their genre is the one nominated for album of the year(Radiohead will win alternative, Lil Wayne will win Rap, etc.)
Best New Act:
I'm not too terribly familiar with all of these artist on here, and I'm just gonna throw away the two I don't know at all, Lady Antebellum and Jazmine Sulliven. No disrespect, but both of them suck only on the simple logic that no one has heard of them, not even me. That leaves us with Duffy, Adele, and Jonas Brothers..... ughhh..... I think I just threw up. Anyways, I'm gonna throw away the two more annoying ones and go with the obvious pick.

Who Should Win - Adele
"Chasing Pavements" is a pretty nice song and a terrific music video.... plus she's the only one with actual talent on the list.
Who Will Win - The Jonas Brothers
I hope Nick Jonas loses his foot to diabetes and causes the band to disband by next year personally. But they will win, if not, CBS will be boycotted by teenage girls.
Song of the Year:
What is the difference between song of the year and record of the year? I don't know, nor do I care. I'm tossing away Jason Mraz and that chick that made "Love Song". Adele is a contender, but I doubt she'll get it. Coldplay might also get it because everyone's been sucking on their balls the whole year.
Who Should Win - "American Boy" by Estelle(feat Kanye West)
I'm sure Estelle will never be heard from again, but she definantly benifited from singing the hook to this song to a very tight pop beat(I think it was produced by will.I.am) and having Kanye West on it.
Who Will Win - Coldplay
Coldplay will win... moving on.
Record of the Year:
seriously, WTF is the difference in these two awards? I'm throwing away all the song of the year nominee's cause that doesn't make since for them to be nominated twice. The leaves "Bleeding Love", "Please Read the Letter", and "Paper Planes"..... wait.... "Paper Planes"!?!?! That song totally came out a year and a half ago, how far back does the nominations allow for the songs. I know that Paper Planes didn't become popular to the lowest common denominator of music listeners untill Pineapple Express came out, but seriously, that's stupid.
Who Should Win - "Paper Planes" by MIA
Who Will Win - "Paper Planes" by MIA
The song is easily one of the best songs that has came out in the past two years, it kinda hits you in all directions and you take away a lot just by listening to it.
Album of the Year:
Ok, here it is. Throw away Ne-Yo because there's no shot in hell that jackass is winning. I'm keeping old Robert Plant and Alyson Kraus on there for the "Grammy's wants to surprise everyone and give the highest award to the old people to say 'Fuck You'" possibilities. I'm going to put Lil' Wayne aside, on the basic reasoning that if Grammy's aren't going to give Kanye the best award for either College Dropout, or Graduation, then they shouldn't give it to Lil Wayne for his rap albums either. That leaves Radiohead's "In Rainbows" and Coldplay's "Piece of Shit Album".......crap....
Who Should Win - "In Rainbows" by Radiohead
When I go back to listen to any CD from 2007, theres always one at the top of my list, and it turns out to be "In Rainbows". I might not like a couple of things about it, like theres one too many back-to-back slower paced songs, but damn, just about everything else about the album is amazing. From the release strategy, to the way Radiohead has handled promoting it, that band is just smart. "Videotape" could be one of the greatest, most sincere songs of our time. I have grown to love this CD.
Who Will Win - "Viva La Vida" by Coldplay
Fuck You.
I hope I'm wrong though
