This Friday's Opposites? Your Grammy nominees for 2008 Album of the Year. I guess the Academy is chalking this year up as a loss. My money is on Plant and Krauss with Birdman, Jr. as the wildcard. You have to believe that if the rich, white teenage daughters of the music industry executives can convince their fathers to buy them G-wagons, they can get them to vote for their favorite Hot Boy. Coldplay's album failed to deliver more than iTunes commerical glory, and Radiohead gave their album away for free. That can't sit well with the powers that be.
And the nominees are:
Lil' Wayne - Tha Carter III
Coldplay - Viva La Vida
Radiohead - In Rainbows
Robert Plant (how far you've fallen) and Alison Krauss - Raising Sand
Ne-Yo - Year of the Gentleman
Vote early...and often!
