Ok ill start.........

Album of the Year
I reckon its between

Dixie Chicks
Bob Dylan
Mary J Blige
Christina?

Record of the Year

Mary J Blige - Be without you.
James Blunt - You're Beautiful
Nelly Furtado - Promiscious Girl
Shakira - Hips Don't Lie

Song of the Year

Mary J Blige - Be without you.
U2& Mary J. -One
Nelly Furtado - Promiscious Girl
Shakira Hips Don't Lie


I predict a lot of nominations for mary j blige. all the RnB categories and the Big general awards.

James Blunt or Rihanna for best newcomer

i know what you mean. but to be considered "new" means the first time to be recognised by the grammys. ie first time to be nominated.

That list makes me want to kill myself.

Although, worryingly, I think it might be quite accurate.

Not that I care because the Grammys are really, really, really bad but does anyone know what the difference is between Record Of The Year and Song Of The Year?.....seems like the same thing to me.

Had the same thoughts when I saw that. But this IS the U.S. we are talking about, so who knows?

Well according to the official website.....

The Record Of Year category honors the artist and the producer(s), recording engineer(s) and/or mixer(s) if other than the artist. This category is for a commercially released single, or track from a current year's album.

The Song Of The Year category recognizes a songwriter for a single or track that was first released or if it first achieved prominence during the eligibility year.

It is the same thing packaged twice so the celebs can take home more stuff.

Some of who are eligible for Best New Artist : Natasha Bedingfield, Pussycat Dolls, Rihanna and Carrie Underwood.

Snow Patrol and Gnarls Barkley though are not up for consideration/ineligible.

I'm hoping for some noms for Ne-Yo and Justin Timberlake, Christina Aguilera should get a few too.

James Blunt is bound to win one or two :yawn: and Lupe fiasco should get something in the hip hop categories
