filiprasmusson Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 very tough, but I thin they'll take at least one :) Best rock performance! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brent Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 They definitely got three total, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shred Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 Yup, it's three. Best Rock Song for ETIAW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brent Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

getithom Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 I guarantee you "Pumped Up Kicks" will win. It's so hipster nowadays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brent Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mimixxx Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 It's a shame they released MX so late, come 2013 it'll be largely forgotten. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brent Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 It's a shame they released MX so late, come 2013 it'll be largely forgotten. 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: ADELE WILL WIN There. Now you don't have to watch! :nice: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColdplayFanatic16 Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christa42 Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 oooh maybe another appearance? and radiohead as well. wow so many great bands nominated this year, it will be an exciting show Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nikola Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 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: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prospector Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 Every Teardrop Is A Waterfall, rock?! Don't get me wrong, I love the song, but's it's very pop for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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.

"Aritist" cause she doesn't write her own songs. 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....

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? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cobalt Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 Bleugh, ETIAW doesn't deserve winning those awards. Paradise one I could be ok with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
