    Really? Have you heard the lyrics to Guaranteed? I just had to go have a listen since everyone is talking about it and once again they make me melt :D

    Editing to say the song is actually giving me chills listening to it right now. But it is only 32 degrees outside so maybe that is why :P

    yeah i have, and thats what i said, i want ed to win. just when people were saying Cornells songs was shit i wanted to show some love is all. But i think Guaranteeds a much better song, and so is Falling Slowly

    But as a BOND SONG, You know my name is darker and better than other Bond songs...i meant in the context of why it was written

    i hope ed wins it and doesn't show up. recall that jethro tull won for best heavy metal record. for the love of all things holy--this grammy committee is barely breathing and has an occasional moment of clarity--like this year with the Into The Wild nomination. PJ creeps just below the five horizons--the big well-known secret--the last band that matters. they slammed into the limelight and then chose a way out. don't fire up that lamp again.

    Brilliant album...Grammy's don't mean shit...I mean really, they constantly nominate the same album for multiple years. It's all about the highest commerical potential. Ed is not a commodity. In that light, Dreamgirls has a higher potential to win, or even Bond. I don't even know what is on that Dreamgirls soundtrack. I did see the Bond flick and the soundtrack was forgetable.

    See if he shows up at the ceremony. Considering how he has been "media-friendly" lately, he just might!

    Maybe if Sean asked him to go...

    i don't think he'll win considering who he's up against...not that the other songs are better, but they're just better options for the grammys.

    if he does win, i'd like to see him be gracious...maybe even apologize for being a dong on '96.
    sorry...just how i feel.

    http://www.grammy.com/GRAMMY_Awards/Voting/

    The process begins with members and record companies submitting entries, which are then screened for eligibility and category placement. The Academy's voting members, all involved in the creative and technical processes of recording, then participate in (1) the nominating process that determines the five finalists in each category; and (2) the final voting process which determines the GRAMMY winners.

    Submission
    Recording Academy members and record companies enter recordings and music videos released during the eligibility year which they consider worthy of recognition in the GRAMMY Awards process.

    Screening
    Reviewing sessions by more than 150 experts in various fields are held to ensure that entered recordings meet specific qualifications and have been placed in appropriate fields such as Rock, R&B, Jazz, Country, Gospel, New Age, Rap, Classical and Latin, among others. The purpose of screenings is not to make artistic or technical judgments about the recordings, but rather to make sure that each entry is eligible and placed in its proper category.

    Nominating
    First-round ballots with lists of eligible recordings in all fields, except those voted on by special nominating committees, are sent to voting members who return their ballots to the independent accounting firm of Deloitte for tabulation. To help ensure the quality of the voting, members are directed to vote only in their fields of expertise; they may nominate in the four general categories (Record Of The Year, Album Of The Year, Song Of The Year and Best New Artist) and in no more than nine out of 31 fields on their ballots.

    Special Nominating
    Committees In craft and other specialized categories, final nominations are determined by national nomination review committees comprised of voting members from all of The Academy's Chapter cities.

    Final Voting
    Lists of the finalists are sent to voting members with their second round ballots. The finalists determined by the special nominating committees are also included on these lists. In this final round, Recording Academy members may vote in the four general categories and in no more than eight of the 31 fields. Ballots again are tabulated in secrecy by the independent accounting firm, Deloitte.

    Results
    Results of members' voting are not known until the GRAMMY Awards presentation ceremony when names of the winners are delivered by Deloitte in sealed envelopes. GRAMMY Award winners are revealed during the GRAMMY Awards telecast.

    never knew about all of this. seems kinda cool to be nominated after such a process.
    anyway...

    This is the first I've heard (or read) of that.

    If this is true it sucks real bad!
