Grammy Predictions...

by Mistress Carrie , posted Feb 3 2009 7:41PM

C'mon... I had to do it. The Grammy's are this Sunday night. (8pm on CBS) And every year, I laugh at the 'Jethro Tull' Metal Grammy moment! So, I thought I would 'test' myself and make some picks! Here's who I'd like to see win, and who I think WILL win! Well, you'll be happy to know that 'Tull' isn't nominated this year, BUT...they are:

Category 16

Best Rock Performance By A Duo Or Group With Vocals (For duo, group or collaborative performances, with vocals. Singles or Tracks only.)

Rock N Roll Train AC/DC [Columbia]

Violet Hill Coldplay Track from: Viva La Vida Or Death And All His Friends [Capitol Records]

Long Road Out Of Eden Eagles Track from: Long Road Out Of Eden [Eagles Recording Company II]

Sex On Fire Kings Of Leon [RCA Records]

House Of Cards Radiohead Track from: In Rainbows [TBD Records]

My Pick: I gotta go with AC/Dc on this one! After 8 years without a studio album, they come back with the best selling Rock album of the year 'Black Ice'... They gotta win! I hope Angus moons the crowd! Nuthin' like old, hairy, man ass on TV! Who WILL WIN? My guess is Kings of Leon...

Category 17

Best Hard Rock Performance (For solo, duo, group or collaborative performances, with vocals. Singles or Tracks only.)

Inside The Fire Disturbed Track from: Indestructible [Reprise]

Visions Judas Priest Track from: Nostradamus [Epic]

Wax Simulacra The Mars Volta [Universal Motown]

Saints Of Los Angeles Mötley Crüe Track from: Saints Of Los Angeles [Motley Records/Eleven Seven Music]

Lords Of Salem Rob Zombie Track from: Zombie Live [Geffen/UMe]

My Pick? I'd like to see Disturbed win. They really showed what they are made of this year! They had a 3rd #1 debut album! 2 #1 hit singles... and a huge tour on the way! Disturbed is here to stay! Who will win? The Mars Volta... The critics love 'em!

Category 18

Best Metal Performance (For solo, duo, group or collaborative performances, with vocals. Singles or Tracks only.)

Heroes Of Our Time DragonForce [Roadrunner Records]

Nostradamus Judas Priest Track from: Nostradamus [Epic]

My Apocalypse Metallica Track from: Death Magnetic [Warner Bros.]

Under My Thumb Ministry Track from: Cover Up [Megaforce Records]

Psychosocial Slipknot [Roadrunner Records]

My pick?

Here's the only time that I may get my way!

As much as I love Slipknot... I'd like to see Metallica take home the Grammy! After bouncing back from St. Anger and the Rock N' Roll Hall of Fame induction on the horizon, I thingk they WILL win too!

Category 21

Best Rock Album (Vocal or Instrumental. Includes Hard Rock and Metal.)

Viva La Vida Or Death And All His Friends Coldplay [Capitol Records]

Rock N Roll Jesus Kid Rock [Atlantic]

Only By The Night Kings Of Leon [RCA Records]

Death Magnetic Metallica [Warner Bros.]

Consolers Of The Lonely The Raconteurs [Third Man/Warner Bros.]

This category is very eclectic, a bit of everything...

My pick? Well, I'd like to see Metallica take this one too! It's a hell of a field, but I really don't think they'll get 2 Grammy's, so...

Who WILL win?

I think Kid Rock will take it. All Summer Long was a HUGE hit, and his album sold a sh*tload of copies...

and finally, my favorite category!

Field 17 — Polka

Category 76

Best Polka Album (Vocal or Instrumental.)

El Maestro Del Acordeón Y Sus Polkas Paulino Bernal [Urbana Records]

Speechless LynnMarie & Charlie Kelley As The Boxhounds [Squeeze Records]

Back To Back Hall Of Fame Polkas Walter Ostanek & His Band, Jerry Darlak & The Touch And Bob Kravos & His Band [Sunshine Diversified Ent.]

Hungry For More Polka Family Band [Polka Family Music]

Let The Whole World Sing Jimmy Sturr And His Orchestra [Rounder]

Who doesn't love a good Polka?

My pick?

You don't f*ck with Jimmy Sturr, remember that!

Who will win...

I told you... You don't F*CK with Jimmy Sturr!

I think that to receive the personal loans from creditors you must present a firm motivation. However, one time I've received a sba loan, because I wanted to buy a building.
