We shouldn't only be putting Loud to blame, the only album that deserved it more than Speak Now is 21.

I'm happy for Rihanna and I love Loud, but we should just celebrate her three noms.

I'm cool now. Thank God I didn't put my hope too high. She can snatch that AOTY nod with the 4th album (if it's better than Fearless & Speak Now) in the future. All good. 3 nods, not too shabby.

And congrats on Rihanna's AOTY nod! (judging from your username)

I don't only blame Loud... It's just the weakest link

You should have seen me tweeting Gaga once they announced AOTY and Taylor wasn't there but Rihanna, Bruno and Gaga all were

I don't think Taylor will perform her lead single at some random concert. It's just my opinion.

[Achilles.]

My top 3 "predictions" for the country categories:

Country Song (awarded to songwriter)
Mean- nominated for SOTY at CMAs, written by the artist
Threaten Me With Heaven, written by the artists; Alison + Vince are Grammy legends
You & Tequila- nominated for SOTY at CMAs

Country Solo
Honey Bee- nominated for Single of the Year at CMAs
Dirt Road Anthem- biggest country single of the year
Mean- Taylor is a bit of a Grammy darling, and it was one of the biggest country singles of the year

Country Album
My Kinda Party- CMA album winner, big singles
Speak Now- we're all well aware of why this deserves country AOTY
Own The Night- the Grammys have shown Lady A lots of love in the past


I think Taylor will take Country Song, Blake will take Country Solo, Aldean & Clarkson will get Country Duo, and Taylor and Aldean battle it out for album. I also think Band Perry has good odds in BNA, as it's the only country nom outside of the country field.

Also, whatever country artists are announced as performers should be expected to win... They won't waste the 1-2 country performances on losers; it'd be too cruel.

I'm not so excited anymore about the GRAMMYs. Especially in country genre. Maybe they'll just continue the CMAs-GRAMMYs tradition.

Taylor is shoe-in for Country Solo Performance. Just a Kiss completely snubbed at Grammy so i don't think Own the Night has a chance. Taylor still has a chance for Country album & song imo.

After the CMA's, I think they'll go with My Kinda Party for Country Album. But who knows with the grammy's this year.

I'm still pessimistic about the Country Album. There's a tradition that the album that won the CMAs' AOTY, will win at the GRAMMYs too. Still don't have the feeling too for the Solo Performance & Song.

Taylor just tweeted a pic of her new haircut...


It's always straight in December...

It reminds me of some other country artist who I cannot name...

No. Last year, Revolution won CMA Album of the Year over Need You Now but Need You Now won Country Album of the Year at this year's Grammys.

[muddysquirrel]

Can we really talk about Taylor as Grammy darling anymore? Snubbed pretty bad 2 years in a row...Gaga is their darling.

There's hope then, but I won't expect much, still. The AOTY snub still makes me pissed every time I think about it.

I just cannot @Adele being counted on DVD chart with the CD/DVD combo when Taylor (and her 1-st place) was ignored. WTF?

The good news is that Taylor is probably gonna outsell Adele....her (Adele) prediction for this week is 55-70k.

It's such BS... Taylor's tour DVD outsold Gaga, Beyonce and Britney COMBINED.

And where exactly are counted "Speak Now Live CD" numbers then? Just a separate album scanning a little over 100k?

They should have gone Adele route just for the bragging rights.
