There are still a few selections I don't totaly agree with, but the artists that are in the running for awards this year has caught my eye. Radiohead,MMJ,Kings of Leon, TMV, Daft Punk, Hot Chip, Brazilian Girls, Beck...not a bad list if I say so.

The biggest surprise on that list to me is a nod to DragonForce in best metal performance.

Agreed, but Peaches En Regalia by ZPZ.

I don't even know how you can nominate that, but I hope it wins.

Ugh, the dance album nominations suck. Seriously? Robyn and Cyndi Lauper? There were WAY better albums to come out in 2008 besides that crap.

Also, when did having your own Disney channel show mean a grammy nomination?

The cool nominees won't be awarded on TV...bleh.

I quit caring about who was nominated or won a long time ago. I watch the show though, because there is usually some pretty good performances. Hopefully this year they will have Radiohead as well as Plant and Krauss.

Amazing live TV moment.
