be reminded. the "Vocal" in the Grammy sense is not who has the highest range and hits the best notes its just to differentiate instrumental albums from records where there is a voice on it.
Most of the time it is, look at all the past winners.... say what you will but the VOCAL DELIVERY does have a lot to do with the voters choosing the winner. Thats not the only thing but I bet is 2/4 of it.
Beyonce couldn't win Best Female R&B Vocal Performance with "Me, Myself & I" (Live), so people actually think she has a chance with winning with a live version of a song she just won with in January? I think Beyonce is pure filler here.
A lot has changed since then. She also never had a pop nomination AT ALL and lok how many she since 2008.

True. But those are the days when the Arethas, the Whitneys and Chaka Khans were going head to head with each other. These days ... not so much
I wont be surprised that they gave Bey the win as a slap in the face to say... we need raw vocals on recording not this dance mess that you "musicians" be putting out.
Man, Coming Around Again, Heaven is a Place on Earth, Luka, I Wanna Dance with Somebody and a Streisand album? That category was GOOD - unlike this shambles, with only two vocal performances (Bey's and Gaga's) of note.

Sis, if Norah couldn't even get nominated for her warmest, richest, most soulful vocal to date (Thinking About You), I doubt she could win here. She's only present because of a almost unprecedented weak ass category.
i say all this without hearing Chasing Pirates.
Who knows - maybe some voters will be confused and think they're voting for a cover of Chasing Pavements.

Im having a ****ing blast watching these videos.... Female R&B Vocal just had Anita (winner) vs Aretha vs Chaka vs Patti. AMAZING
What's wrong with GaGa's vocal delivery on "Bad Romance?" Sometimes you have to look at the context of the song. "Bad Romance" is an up tempo dance track, so who expects the song to have a bunch of high notes? Besides, "I don't wanna be friends" part is far more superior than anything on "Teenage Dream."
Also, if "All I Wanna Do" won a Grammy over sap such as "Hero" and "The Power of Love," then it's not totally impossible for "Bad Romance" to win over some of these nominated tracks. Vocal delivery is not only high notes and sappy ballads. You guys will never learn.

No one said GaGa never had a chance of course shes the favorite to win this.

Read. Someone mentioned something about vocal delivery and that's what I'm talking about in my post. I really don't care if anyone think she has a chance or not.
You know I love Whitney and I thought she was deserving of her win, but "Luka" would have been a great winner, too. I don't use the other nominees like that.

Heaven is a Place on Earth says no.
BUT LET's MOVE THIS TO THE OVERALL GRAMMY DISCUSSION THREAD. Sats, Cap and Deemy - I expect to find you there; I already have two tantalizing categories for us to talk about.
I think Beyonce is pure filler here.
of course shes the favorite to win this.
