Grammy Nominees

Here are the nominated songs of the year, several which have been featured before on the blog. Of course you know that I love Kelly Clarkson’s Stronger. And Carly Rae Jepsen’s Call Me is a definite ear worm but then again so is the anthem, We Are Young by Fun. Which is your favorite?

My favorite right now is the Irish group The Script, and they weren’t nominated for anything. I don’t often find groups where the lyrics are so smart AND the music is so good, but they manage to accomplish both in most of their songs. Plus I think they capture certain emotions so perfectly — as in their song “Nothing”, which is about trying to convince a former lover to take you back (which never works), or “Break Even”, which is about how when a coule breaks up it’s usually much harder on one of them than on the other (“I got time but she got freedom”). Oh well, maybe next year.

Leigh:
I just don’t get all the love for Taylor Swift – she is a very pretty girl/women but her songs don’t really do anything for me.I don’t dislike them, but I don’t really like them either.

Yikes – woman, instead of women.

maggie b.: I like everything but the R&B song by Miguel. My favorite is still Stronger by Kelly Clarkson.

I didn’t like the R & B song either. It didn’t seem original at all -more like a water-downed version of the classics.
