amy_runs Posted August 29, 2009 Posted August 29, 2009 They won't win. Not that I don't want them to, but they won't. It's going to be effing Taylor is not so Swift
rage-love-life Posted August 29, 2009 Posted August 29, 2009 They won't win. Not that I don't want them to, but they won't. It's going to be effing Taylor is not so SwiftI don't think so. Knowing the Grammy people it probably will be like U2 or something.
Anko Posted August 29, 2009 Posted August 29, 2009 THEY WILL WIN!!!!!!!Come on if their fans doubt that they'll win then they won't.Keep your spitits high cuz it's their year! WHO'S WITH ME!
Jesus*Of*Suburbia Posted August 29, 2009 Posted August 29, 2009 Not surprising. They deserve the win.
HoneyDo666 Posted August 29, 2009 Posted August 29, 2009 ^I'm with you!The Black Eyed Peas are fun, but won't win Album of the Year, they weren't nominated for their last album and this one's more of the same.U2 have won twice, its time for a change, but they're Grammy favorites.Taylor Swift is a mediocre songwriter and a terrible singer.Green Day have another amazing album and I think it's their year, but they do have strong competition from U2 and Kings of Leon.The critics hated Kanye's album and he can't sing. He should stick to rapping.Not surprising. They deserve the win.I concur
dolce Posted August 29, 2009 Posted August 29, 2009 Taylor Swift won't win album of the year. Maybe like "Best New Artist" or something like that, but her album is most definitely not album of the year by Grammy standards (or anyone else's - at least I hope not!). I mean, she's okay, but she certainly wouldn't win over the likes of Green Day, U2, and Kanye. Kanye West won't win either, I don't think. His album, from what I've read, was not well received by critics, which I think plays a pretty significant role in who wins (for better or worse). How did U2's cd do? I didn't think that really did so hot either, but I could be wrong. In my eyes, Green Day is by far the best of the group (and just the best, period). They deserve it so much. I know awards aren't important, but the way Billie's face lit up when they've won in the past is priceless. I'd love to see that look on his face again.
MusicGrl1986 Posted August 29, 2009 Posted August 29, 2009 Wow! I think it'd be awesome if they got nominated for a 2010 Grammy and it'd be even more amazing if they won a 2010 Grammy!
Boston Posted August 29, 2009 Posted August 29, 2009 I don't think it will be nominated. American Idiot was enormous, selling 10 million albums in an age when albums are no longer purchased. It revitalized Green Day's career and rock in general. 21CB hasn't garnered that much attention.
Spark of Insanity Posted August 29, 2009 Posted August 29, 2009 ^I agree. Its all about marketing and impact. Compared to 'American Idiot' its less. Still a great album. But from their perspective that is how they will see it. It hasn't sold as much.No chance in hell they're gonna win album of the year. Not with Taylor fucking Swift or Ufucking2, of Kanyego West. Here's the thing, being Grammy-friendly is the same as being Radio Friendly and sadly and bunch of tar-heads in the Grammy Academy still think they are the band that sings about masturbation.Exactly.My bet is Taylor Swift. You see she is everywhere, on every radio station, every TV station. She is HUGE now and she will win. Same with Kanye; he is everywhere and has been promoting for a very long time on his new record with a lot of singles. Sure bet its one of them. Now I don't think U2 will get it because I cannot recall their latest single, or have heard of it I guess. And if I haven't heard it that means there are some other's whom haven't either because its not played a lot. I love Green Day and hope they win but there is a slight chance with them as competition.But I will try to stay optimistic and say they have a chance and I hope that they get it.
Laura! Posted August 29, 2009 Posted August 29, 2009 I seriously hope they get nominated and win! They really deserve it! I know it'll be tough. But you never know.EDIT: 500 posts!!
Rebel07 Posted August 29, 2009 Posted August 29, 2009 Don't the grammy's come on in like february?I really hope this all goes well. but if not oh well, maybe we'll get lucky enough to see them perform
Spark of Insanity Posted August 29, 2009 Posted August 29, 2009 Don't the grammy's come on in like february?Yerp. I do think so.
HoneyDo666 Posted August 29, 2009 Posted August 29, 2009 Robert Plant and Alison Krauss swept last year and I had never heard of their album!Green Day have an excellent shot! The Grammy's want good ratings, Green Day can pull in all their fans from across the globe.I think the VMAs will make them the "hot" band again. Then, the good buzz will get them some more wonderful awards!I too love it when their faces light up! And I want Billie to win "Song of the Year" for his gorgeous songwriting! Let's go 21 Guns!
Tiffx Posted August 29, 2009 Posted August 29, 2009 Robert Plant and Alison Krauss swept last year and I had never heard of their album!Exactly. When they won album of the year I was like, wtf?
GarinRichards Posted August 29, 2009 Posted August 29, 2009 Wow! I think it'd be awesome if they got nominated for a 2010 Grammy and it'd be even more amazing if they won a 2010 Grammy!ditto.
Mrs.Kerplunk Posted August 29, 2009 Posted August 29, 2009 awesome hope they win. im soo pissed when taylor fuckin swift get it
parinaz Posted August 29, 2009 Posted August 29, 2009 remember last year when they were presenting the album of the year grammy, Billie said see you next year!
GTI Posted August 29, 2009 Posted August 29, 2009 Exactly. When they won album of the year I was like, wtf?I had never heard of them before in my life. And the song they played was... dreadful.
HoneyDo666 Posted August 29, 2009 Posted August 29, 2009 It's only been 3 months and the album is almost platinum!Give it some time! The sold-out European tour will help in Europe, and they'll probably do some press in September to promote the musical and they're performing at the VMAs!There will be plenty of Green Day coming soon! Super pumped!
Rezurgam Posted August 29, 2009 Posted August 29, 2009 I don't think the VMAs will help the band much, because they won't win many, if any, awards in it. They do have a pretty big chance at winning Best Rock Album and quite possibly Album of the Year at the Grammy's. If Kanye wins Album of the Year, I am going to be so pissed. 808s and Heartbreak was probably the shittiest thing he's ever done. Going to say that Lady Gaga might actually have a chance and Whitney Houston too but that's Whitney.
punkrockerlori Posted August 29, 2009 Posted August 29, 2009 Guys if they lose to fucking Taylor Swift that'll be the day that music offically dies!
