Grammy Nominations

Posted by Country Girl on December 3rd, 2008

OMG! OMG!

Rascal Flatts got a Grammy Nomination!!!!!!! They are nominated with:
Brooks & Dunn, Lady Antebellum (who is also nominated for Best New Artist), The Steel Drivers & Sugarland for Best Country Performance by Duo or Group.

Way to go! MY FAVORITE TWO GROUPS GETTING PROPS FROM THE GRAMMYS. It’s a good night!

Side note:  yes, another one.  John Mayer is hot with short hair.

Full run down of country Grammy nominations:

Lady Antebellum is nominated with Adele, Duffy, Jonas Brothers and Jazmine Sullivan. Way to represent country music!

NOTE:  The Grammy’s think that the Eagles are pop (not country).  They are nominated for best pop performance by duo or group and a number of other POP awards.

Best Female Country Performance:
Martina McBride
LeAnn Rimes
Carrie Underwood
Lee Ann Womack
Trisha Yearwood

Best Male Country Performance:
Trace Adkins
Jamey Johnson
James Otto
Brad Paisley
George Strait

Best Country Collaboration With Vocals:
Shiftwork – Kenny Chesney & George Strait
Killing The Blues – Robert Plant & Alison Krauss
House Of Cash – George Strait & Patty Loveless
Life In A Northern Town – Sugarland, Jake Owen & Little Big Town
Let The Wind Chase You – Trisha Yearwood & Keith Urban

Best Country Song
Dig Two Graves
I Saw God Today
In Color
Stay
Your Gonna Miss This

Best Country Album
That Lonesome Song – Jamey Johnson
Sleepless Nights – Patty Loveless
Troubadour – George Strait
Around The Bend – Randy Travis
Heaven, Heartache And The Power Of Love – Trisha Yearwood

Can I just say…It kills me that the CMA’s can give Kenny Chesney Entertainer of the Year award for 100 years in a row BUT the Grammy’s don’t even think he is worth a Best Male Performance nomination.  Just makes you wonder how much politics are involved in the music industry.   That just doesn’t match up.

Congratulations to ALL Of the 42nd Annual CMA Award Winners.

Here is my quick rundown if you don’t have time to read the entire life post….

The Eagles didn’t have any business performing, Lady Antebellum won the most deserving award last night, James Otto messed up the beginning of his song but he sounded great, Jason Aldean kicks ass on stage, Darius Rucker has found a place in country music, George Strait is boring to watch but loves to take home awards, Miranda Lambert showed her soft side and we love it, Shania Twain still looks amazing but should have done more last night, yes, we know.  Carrie Underwood can sing, Kenny Chesney is still Entertainer of the Year but we DO NOT agree with this decision and finally – we saved the best for last – Rascal Flatts are still and will always be the Greatest Vocal Group of the Year!

Steph in the City has some great pictures from the CMA After parties.
