Nope - not me. I'm even more upset. How could one album have TWO Record of the Year awards (perhaps the most prestigious award), see EVERY single released from it win a Grammy, see a Song of the Year, Rock Album of the Year, Rock Song of the Year (twice) and Pop Song of the Year award and still NOT win Album of the Year??? This just makes me all the more upset.
At least - at least - U2 won another very prestigious award tonight. This gives me hope for a sales boost thanks to the Grammy wins. And 4 awards out of 7 categories - it may not be a sweep, but it is impressive.

The curse of Bono's hug- last year, he was hugging Macy Gray last year when he beat her. This year, he was hugging India and beat her too!

Sorry Bubba, but I don't like how you are doing this. By your "calculations" even if U2 won in every single category, they would have 7 wins and 1 loss - which is ridiculous because they would have swept.
They were up for 7 awards. That is the most they could win - period. They won 4 of them. So they won in 4, lost in 3.

Their last 2 album of the years were complete shit IMO that most people didnt care for all that much.
Originally posted by Achtung Bubba:
Truly, they could win no more than seven, but they were nominated eight times, and my list reflected that. I honestly don't see what you're complaining about.

OK, I agree with you on the Steely Dan record, but not O Brother Where Art Thou...I mean, that record introduced bluegrass to a whole new generation. It kicked off a whole bluegrass craze.

I guess they'll just have to release an album late this summer before the cut-off date and win it all next year.
