James Blunt "You're Beautiful"
Gnarls Barkley is "Crazy"
Justin Timberlake "Bringing Sexy Back" with Future Sex/Love Sounds
Leading the way with 8 Grammy nods is Mary J Blige. While The Dixie Chicks are taking nods in the top 3 categories. Blige, 35, has been on a role all year. First she scored big with her knockout album "The Breakthrough" and then she just hit the jackpot in Vegas, Monday night taking home an arm load of Billboard Music Awards. While Blige was getting her breakthrough on, The Dixie Chicks weren't "Making Nice" with their hit album "Taking the Long Way." The Chicks have constantly been recognized for their innovative and funky country sound as well for their outspoken lead singer, Natalie Maines who eventually made nice with other huge country artist Toby Keith. After she made some disparaging comments about G Dub aka President of the United States.
Both Blige & The Chicks have been nominated for album of the year.
Also picking up nods, are James Blunt (You're Beautiful), John Mayer (The Continuum), Prince, my boy, who's "Bringin Sexy Back" Justin Timberlake (FutureSex/Love Sounds), & the Red Hot Chili Peppers. Blunt's "You're Beautiful" is nominated for song of the year & he's also nom'd for male Pop vocal of the year.
Feeling left out in the cold is epic artist Bob Dylan, (Modern Times) who wasn't nominated for jack. That's pretty tough to swallow when he had his first #1 album in 30 years. All the music he's done, you'd think they could have coughed up a nomination in the song writing category alone. But what can we expect when they nominate Gnarls Barkley (Crazy) who had a crazy hit (not my favorite) song this year. Sucker was dang annoying! It drove me crazy.
Y'all can catch the Grammy's {I would say all the way Live but y'all ain't got nobody to thank for that except Ms. Nasty herself, Janet Jackson} with a 3-5 second delay semi Live on February 11, 2007, broadcast from The Staples Center on CBS.
