Below are some of my predictions for the Grammys, which will be handed out on Sunday. If there's any justice (often there's not with the Grammys), Lil' Wayne, Ne-Yo and Estelle will win in the R&B/rap genres, not the general/pop categories.
RECORD OF THE YEAR
should win: Coldplay/Viva la Vida
will win: Plant & Krauss/Please Read the Letter
ALBUM OF THE YEAR
should win: Radiohead/In Rainbows
will win: Plant & Krauss/Raising Sand
>I'd also be happy with a Coldplay win
SONG OF THE YEAR
should win: Coldplay/Viva la Vida
will win: Adele/Chasing Pavements
BEST NEW ARTIST
should win: Duffy
will win: Adele
>Jonas Bros. have released other albums prior to the eligibility period and shouldn't even be included here. Of course that hasn't stopped previous winners (Shelby Lynne)
ROCK SONG
should win: Girls in Their Summer Clothes/Bruce Springsteen
will win: Girls in Their Summer Clothes/Bruce Springsteen
>Since The Boss was inexplicably shut out of Album of the Year for "Magic," I think the Academy will throw him a bone here; it's a tough category with Radiohead, Death Cab for Cutie, Kings of Leon, Coldplay all deserving noms
ROCK ALBUM
should win: Kings of Leon
will win: Coldplay
ALTERNATIVE ALBUM
should win: My Morning Jacket
will win: Radiohead
