yeah i think she will sing STRONGER also. but since she got a POP ALBUM nom ination, i think she could justify singing anything from the album. PLU i dont think would be appropriate.... dont grammys normally make or prefer the artist sing their nominated song/record or a song from their nominated album? i think we will get a stripped down acustic Stronger or a rock out Stronger with a special guest of somekind. not sure who. or a random stronger album cut (but probably not since she wouldnt want to confuse people into thinking she has a new single out, when PLU will probably already be released by then)

Performers often perform what they are nominated for, but not always. Lady Gaga performed "Born This Way" the year The Fame Monster was up for Album and "Bad Romance" won Pop Female.
The year Beyonce was up for "Halo" and "Single Ladies," she performed "If I Were A Boy."

Kelly Clarkson said that she doesn't want to do Stronger because everyone's heard her do it a million times. She's very interested in doing a special duet with someone. I don't remember where I saw this interview, but it was somewhere!

^ Thanks for posting! Nice to see fun. as the favorite in five of their six categories... What happened to Gotye running away with ROTY?

2 major things happened - Gotye didn't get a Best New Artist nomination and fun. did get an Album of the Year nomination. All of a sudden, fun. is a major Grammy player and Gotye may walk away empty handed (though there is still a possibility of him going 3/3 - fun. & Fiona Apple are his biggest competition...maybe M83 too).

Eh, I can't exactly go with the thought of Frank Ocean being snubbed of a win in the general field. I think he'll take either BNA or Album. Hell, he may take both...

^ Gay or not, his album had enough positive buzz, to earn his Best New Artist. His coming out was a pretty important moment for the community, but that was several months ago, and I really don't see the committee voting based on that.

I was able to download it. Cracking up at Nonesuch's congratulatory ad to its artists with a big picture of an Oscar in the middle of it. ("Wrong statue, but you get the idea.")

Maybe this just says how much of a compilation geek I am, but I can't wait to find out what tracks are gonna be on the 2013 Grammy Nominees album.
The General Field isn't exactly the most mainstream, so does anybody have any thoughts as to what categories will be featured this year?

The General Field isn't exactly the most mainstream, so does anybody have any thoughts as to what categories will be featured this year? Well I'm thinking that the following are all for-sure bets on making the cut: -"Stronger", Kelly Clarkson -"We Are Young", fun./Janelle Monae -"Somebody That I Used To Know", Gotye/Kimbra -"Call Me Maybe", Carly Rae Jepsen -"We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together", Taylor Swift -"The A Team", Ed Sheeran -"Thinkin Bout You", Frank Ocean After those, I'd predict outside chances of "Wide Awake", Katy Perry; "Payphone", Maroon 5; "Wanted", Hunter Hayes; "Where Have You Been", Rihanna; "Lonely Boy", The Black Keys; and "Blown Away", Carrie Underwood.

The albums lately have been around 20 tracks, so I'm going with that number... Record of the Year: 1. The Black Keys - Lonely Boy 2. Kelly Clarkson - Stronger 3. fun. - We Are Young 4. Gotye - Somebody That I Used To Know 5. Frank Ocean - Thinkin Bout You 6. Taylor Swift - We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together Album of the Year: 7. Mumford & Sons - I Will Wait 8.

Is it the full version of Pyramids? 22 tracks is a lot for one CD, especially when one is that long.

I expect Kelly, Frank, Hunter, Gotye, Miguel, Jack Black, Bruce Springsteen, Carly Rae & some form of G.O.O.D. Music to join that list.

Sadly, that is how most people know who he is. "The gay rapper" If someone is still calling Frank a "rapper" there is a good chance that person never actually got around to listening to his music. Coming out isn't going to make a large amount of people cream over a mediocre or crappy album...I won't deny that it brought him a lot of attention that he didn't have before but beyond that it was up to him to live up to the hype. Which is a given with any artist, really. You can do whatever you like to put your name out there but once you get people to check you out, the music itself is what will prove (or disprove) its worthiness.
