Radiohead’s In Rainbows has been nominated for “Album of the Year” in the year’s Grammy Awards.
Here’s who they are up against:
Coldplay - Viva La Vida Or Death And All His Friends
Lil Wayne - Tha Carter III
Ne-Yo - Year Of The Gentleman
Robert Plant & Alison Krauss - Raising Sand
Radiohead - In Rainbows
In addition to “Album of the Year”, they were also nominated in the following categories:
Best Rock Performance By A Duo Or Group With Vocals (House of Cards)
Best Rock Song (House of Cards)
Best Alternative Music Album (In Rainbows)
Best Boxed Or Special Limited Edition Package (In Rainbows)
Producer Of The Year, Non-Classical (Nigel Godrich)
Best Short Form Music Video (House of Cards)”
7 NOMINATIONS. Radiohead is so different from everyone else on that list, they actually create ART. Their music is art. They are so original and blorg if coldplay,neyo,or little wayne win I will laugh! It won’t bother me because I am not a fan of award shows/media/tv/popular opinion so for that matter I don’t really want them to win; but if the others do prevail I will just have to laugh because then we have a fact: that everything on television is a joke. I know that I sound obsessive and biased, but I listen to other music all of the time I swear :) But I just have to throw it out there that against Radiohead, nothing mainstream could ever be even considered art or music at least to my ears. INDUSTRY BUSINESS INDUSTRY BUSINESS INDUSTRY
(Actually, I am quite surprised that Radiohead was even considered and if they even show up: I hope they misbehave)
