    Hope he wins it. Interesting to see Vedder and Cornell go head to head. Maybe we'll get a semi-Temple of the Dog reunion if they both perform at the Grammys.

    Awesome, though it sucks that Falling Slowly happens to be nominated at the same time because that's also a great song.

    haha!
    If he did win I wonder what he will say.
    I am sure it will be different then the last time he accepted an award.
    But ya never know with him. LOL

  • OH NO! Eddie is up against Chris Cornell for the song he did for James Bond. I love James Bond and Chris Cornell. On the other hand, I love Eddie and Into the Wild. Hmm, oh yeah I just remembered, I have absolutely no say in who wins anyway. YAY! Bliss.
  • Awesome! He must win!
    Oh, Cornell's song is also nominated in this category...
    Guaranteed is a better song than You Know My Name.
    "I surfaced and all of my being was enlightened"
  • Cornell's song does NOT belong there. It's not good. In fact, Carry On as a whole is a pretty bad album. (I'm a Cornell fan, but I have to be brutally honest...)

    Anyhow, Guaranteed is a fucking fantastic song. I'm glad that it was chosen among all the other possible ITW tracks. I think it has a chance, although Falling Slowly is probably the favorite.

    They didn't put a studio album out this year.

    That was released in 2006 so I don't think it was eligible for this year (didn't get any nominations last year either, IIRC).

    I think the song from "Once" will probably win but still, a lot of good artists are represented this year. Vedder, Cornell, Springsteen, Foo Fighters. Although I can't beleieve they got an "Album of the Year" nomination.

    Shouldn't but too much stock into these awards but it's fun to discuss I guess.

    Oh shit that's right! Man time flies!!

    So how come then a song from Happy Feet fits in here?
    That movie was out in November 2006.

    I believe it is a 9/30 cut off. So the period covered by this years awards is 10/1/06 - 9/30/07.

  • While I am happy to see EV get the much deserved recognition...I just don't take much stock into alla those little statue shows...it really doesn't matter much to me, in the grand scope of things.

    Just like the RnR HoF...who's to say that just because you aren't IN that you don't matter?

    Besides,there is never a 1st place prize in art.
  • All I know is that James Bond song is kinda weak...

    Um it kinda matters cause if he wins there is more of a chance he will play some solo dates...

    It would be nice if the record company made that part of the deal. :) I wouldn't mind it!!

    Ummmm Really?

    I don't think his winning necessarily means there will or won't be EV solo tour dates.

    If I never see EV solo, but still have PJ around as a band, then consider me happy. EV is good right where he is...and that's why it's taken this long to even get something from him, without his band by his side.

    The whole is greater than the sum of it's parts.

    i want ed to win, but i think that lyrically You Know My Name is the best Bond song theres ever been. the lyrics are brilliant i think..
