HP better win soundtrack

Fixed.

I did it.

Thank You

I would be very surprised that 21 wasn't on your list of AOTY.

Agreed Completely. HP is an amazing soundtrack.

YouTube whenever you're ready.

Really? I mean, he doesn't like Adele's album, and he really wants GaGa to win something.

Anyway, I will post some of my predictions later this week. I don't know what to expect in some categories.

OK, just make sure it's before Sunday.

Record of the Year
"Rolling in the Deep" – Adele

Album of the Year
Born This Way – Lady Gaga

Song of the Year
"Rolling in the Deep"

Best Pop Solo Performance
"Someone Like You" – Adele

Best Pop Duo/Group Performance
"Paradise" – Coldplay

I think the Grammys love her.

I think Gaga will win Best Pop Album.

Considering who's attending and performing, Adele is gonna win big (5), Gaga (1 or 2), Rihanna (2), and Katy 1.

The only thing i want from this years show is the pre-gala where someone MUST give Beyoncé the Grammy she deserves for I Am World Tour DVD.

Get that Grammy Sasha!
