Shawna Posted December 12, 2006 Report Share Posted December 12, 2006 Not seeing Kanye West on the nominations anywhere... what do you suppose we can expect from this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Levis Posted December 12, 2006 Report Share Posted December 12, 2006 There are some good nominations in there... in fact the good ones might actually outnumber the bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shawna Posted December 12, 2006 Report Share Posted December 12, 2006 I haven't heard nor know of a single song listed there ... If you were from Texas and knew the Dixie Chicks, you'd know their songs for sure. I really like them, and I say, "Take that, W." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c_s_1987 Posted December 12, 2006 Report Share Posted December 12, 2006 I was disappointed to hear the public's reaction to what the Dixie Chicks said about George Dubya, especially since I come from a country where not saying disrespectful things about the Prime Minister is considered unpatriotic.

Jenny Posted December 12, 2006 Report Share Posted December 12, 2006 I am the only person in the world who likes "My Humps", but that is not Grammy material, nor is ANYTHING by the Pussycat Dolls. Do not tell me they couldn't find any other decent pop songs to stick in there. And come on, Janet Jackson, Lionel Richie?? Are the '80's back and no one told me? OK, to be fair, I've only heard one of Lionel's new songs and it didn't impress me. I haven't heard any of Janet's new stuff, but after "Rhythm Nation", she's been disappointing.

TheLizard Posted December 12, 2006 Report Share Posted December 12, 2006 If you were from Texas and knew the Dixie Chicks, you'd know their songs for sure. I really like them, and I say, "Take that, W." Personally, that's my problem with the nomination. It's a political statement by the academy. Their new song is not good enough to be in the best record category, and as they've publicly disowned themselves from the genre of country music, it shouldn't be nominated for best country album. I like the Dixie Chicks, but the Grammys should be about music, not politics. Then again, anything is better than the crapfest that is "You're Beautiful". I'm trying to take the Grammys seriously, and there are some very good songs and albums nominated, especially in the rock categories, but when it comes down to it, it's just the record companies trying to get their money earners more publicity.
