Grammy Nominations

This years Grammy nominations are for less crappy then they have been in the past few years. Although, one nomination for Justin Timberlake is one too many, he did somehow manage to get 4 nominations.

The most nominations went to Mary J Blidge, with eight nominations in total. Second highest number of nominations (six) went to... The Red Hot Chili Peppers, TrahyPantz's favorite band (would I ever steer you wrong?) for their double disc album Stadium Arcadium. John Mayer received 5 nominations for his newset and most blues influenced album, Continuum. James Blunt got 5 nominations for his way overplayed song You're Beautiful and the album it came off of. How many people did his girlfriend, Petra Nemcova, have to sleep with to get him these undeserving nominations??

Unfortunately, the Black Eyed Peas got one nomination because someone thought My Humps wasn't the worst song in the world. This person should be hung by thier toes and made to listen to Fergalicious over and over and over again.

On the flipside of that, much more deserving artists, with real talent, received nods, like... Tom Petty, The Arctic Monkeys, Death Cab For Cutie, John Legend, Keane, Coldplay, David Gilmour, Gnarls Barkley and The Yeah Yeah Yeahs, just to name a few. (By the way, these artists have all been featured on the sidebar at one time or another over the past year!)

The 49th Grammy Awards will air live on CBS from the Staples Center in Los Angeles on Feb. 11.
