My Grammy Prediction

  • Once again...if this is true it sucks real bad!

    I would have liked to have seen what he would say on the stand.


    I would too, but the Grammys have gradually shifted into a performance-fest and cut back drastically on what awards they give out on the air.

    The most recent year I could find the numbers on was 2005, where 95 out of 107 awards were given out before the show and they had 18 on-air performances.

    So that's 12 awards and 18 performances during the show.

    And the "Best Original Song from a Motion Picture" or whatever it's called has been cut for a few years now.

    You'll have to excuse me.. The extent of my grammy knowledge comes from that Simpsons episode where Homer forms a barber shop quartet.

    The fact that you know so much about the grammys just proves what a sellout you are.

    Personally, I don't know what the grammys mean. I don't think they mean anything. That's just how I feel. My dad would like them.
    Oh, I don't watch the grammys nor do I understand how they pick the winners, but there's one thing I do know, and thats how to read. :p

    But the song was not written for Into the Wild.. the category is best song WRITTEN FOR a motion picture. :p
    actually it was.
    It's even on the Oscar shortlist for ITW (they have the same criteria) .

    so you're wrong :p

    don't care, I'm not a big fan of that song (it's ok but most of the lyrics are pretty nonsensical/look-how-clever-I-try-to-be)

    If Ed accepts the invitation and shows up for the awards ceremony, he wins. If he declines the invitation, they'll give it to somebody else.


    Chris Cornell is also nominated (For the James Bond song) in the same category as Ed. I think he will win.

    If Ed wins, he'll sport a chub onstage whilst talking about his own manlove for Sean Penn.

    I kinda don't wanna see that.
    classic

    He won't win; they'll give it to that stupid movie song from Dreamgirls

    Fuck the Grammys!! They are lame. Now an Oscar would be exciting! I think everyone who gets nominated performs their song live. So ya....fuck the Grammys.

    Is there any chance of a song from Into the Wild winning an Oscar?
    That would be cool.

    They're not "supposed" to know of the winners until opening the envelope.

    I think he goes and gives a half apologetic half defiant speech.

    Unfortunately, Ed won't win. The award will go to "Once"

    I love you, Brandon...I tried to say this, but someone said it´s important, because blá, blá, blá....I dont think so..Ed worked in the soundtrack, made a good job, traveled with Sean Penn for up and down, and you can find a lot of interviews about the movie -- everybody knows, he hates interview -- and the movie and cd are sucess. Is it not enough? grammy? it´s no serious..
