starvenger 0 Report post Posted December 4, 2003 Record of the Year - Surprisingly, a pretty solid crop of songs. Even Beyonce's song is decent fluff. However, anyone thinking of voting for that song should see subjected to Warren Sapp's "tribute" to Beyonce's booty shaking. Album of the Year - I have none of these albums, hence I have no comment Song Of The Year - Linda Perry from 4 Non-Blondes wrote "Beautiful?". I haven't heard the Luther or Warren Zevon songs. Of the other three I thought that Eminem's was the best in terms of lyrics. Best New Artist - Um, who's Heather Headley? Sean Paul probably won't win here, but he'll probably win the Shaggy Memorial Juno for "American artist who performs at the Canadian Grammys". Best Female Pop Vocal Performance - I'd give this to Sarah McLachlan based on her overall work, but with her new album I was on track 7 before I realized that it was a different song. So out of the other 4 I'd like to see Dido win it. Kelly Clarkson winning it would be pretty funny though, as it would give American Idol some serious legitimacy and likely piss off a lot of people. Best Male Pop Vocal Performance - Ye Gods, 3 industry vets, a guy dead for over 2 years and JT. I gotta admit, I like McDonald's song, but that's because it's ALWAYS ON IN MCI COMMERCIALS. Hopefully they put Justin over and end up pissing off Britney. Best Pop Performance By A Duo Or Group With Vocal - I want Fountains of Wayne to win, simply because their song is about a MILF. Best Pop Collaboration With Vocals - YOUR frightening thought of the day: La Vie En Rose is a lingerie store in Canada. Now imagine Tony Bennett and kd lang in lingerie. Best Pop Instrumental Performance - The Nutcracker Suite by a swing band? I gotta hear that... Best Pop Instrumental Album - Why won't Kenny G go away? Best Pop Vocal Album - I guess I'd vote for the dead Beatle... Best Dance Recording - Hey, as long as it's not that gawdawful Madonna song... Best Traditional Pop Vocal Album - I think that this is not my type of category Best Female Rock Vocal Performance - "Rock" is being very loosely interpreted, isn't it? I think Michelle Branch would win here, but I must admit that I'm partial to Avril's "Losing Grip". In fact, it's probably my favourite song out of all her singles. Best Male Rock Vocal Performance - No comment, as I've only heard Gravedigger... Best Rock Performance By A Duo Or Group With Vocal - Seven Nation Army has that great hook, doesn't it? Best Hard Rock Performance - This looks like a category designed for Evanescence to win, thanks to their crossover appeal. Best Metal Performance Best Rock Instrumental Performance Best Alternative Music Album - I'll let the experts debate these ones. Best Rock Song Best Rock Album - I guess these ones would all depend on what the voters ate before they voted. Being that I'm Canadian I guess I'd like to see Nickelback win...

Guest Ronixis Report post Posted December 4, 2003 Finally! The list is solid. The music gods must have been smiling somewhat today. But Avril sadly cant carry a note- and her counter part Ashanti cant blow. Winners: Major Awards: Outkast (Record of the Year and Album) Vandross (Song of the Year) Evanescence (Best New Artist) Sarah McLachlan or Dido (Pop Performance-Female) George Harrison (Pop Performance-Male) Fountains Of Wayne (Best Pop Performance By A Duo Or Group With Vocal) (They just owned that video like Vetran hosses) David Bowie (Best Male Rock Vocal Performance) Michelle Branch (Best Female Rock Vocal Performance) Foo Fighters (Best Rock Performance By A Duo Or Group With Vocal) (They want to get away from politicly charged music at this point) Evanescence Featuring Paul McCoy (Best Hard Rock Performance) Jack White, songwriter (The White Stripes) (Best Rock Song) I will not to the Metal, because I am not really an expert in that field of music Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The show is just a gimmick to sell albums for new singers that need a little "push". The truth of the matter is that I really don't care that much about American Idol as a show, but I do enjoy seeing if this affects the dynamic between radio and television, y'know? Remember, Kelly Clarkson was "discovered" on TV, not radio, which traditionally "discovers" new artists. So if Clarkson wins, does this weaken radio's influence to "create" new stars? Would this cause companies like Clear Channel to, oh I don't know, EXPAND their fricking playlist beyond what they want us to hear? So anyways, that's my take on it.
