Grammy Nominations for Best Score Soundtrack For Visual Media

For those of you who follow the Grammy's, below is a list of this year's nominees from the only category worth caring about.  I still don't get their qualification calendar, mixing releases from two different calendar years.  In fact, it irritates me so much that the Grammy's have become irrelevant to me....but that's me.

Of course, in that reality which exists outside of my own, a Grammy nom is nothing to scoff at, so with some sort of quantum-parallel-sincerity, I give BIG UPS to this years...last years...whatever years nominees!

Good luck to you all when the award show is held.  Is it this year?  Next?  Whenever.  Good Luck.

53rd Annual Grammy Nominees for Best Score

Well award season is descending upon us again and the Grammy's are first out of the gate with their list of nominees.  I first have to say that I still find their calendar for eligibility odd and perplexing.  Why mix efforts from two different calendar years?  In any event, they do just that and  that makes their grouping of nominees unique and interesting (I guess).

So without further delay, I give you last years...no this years...no next years...I give you the Grammy nominees for Best Original Score:


Alice In Wonderland - Danny Elfman, composer
[Walt Disney Records]

Avatar - James Horner, composer
[Fox Music/Atlantic Records]

Inception - Hans Zimmer, composer
[Reprise/WaterTower Music]

Sherlock Holmes - Hans Zimmer, composer
[WaterTower Music]

Toy Story 3 - Randy Newman, composer
[Walt Disney Records]


Interesting list. Eh?  So who do you think WILL win and who do you think SHOULD win?
