Like i do before a lot of award shows, i'm gonna list who i think should win in select categories. Cuz really, i could care less about most of the categories out there! I'm not a big fan of the Grammy's ever since Amy Winehouse beat out Taylor Swift for Best New Artist, which was a total joke! These voters aren't really country music people so their picks aren't always very accurate. Winners are in red if it wasn't who i wanted. I'm sooo happy that Carrie and Brad won!! 3 Years in a row for Carrie and she'll be making it 4 years next year

Best New Artist

  • Adele- Who???
  • Duffy
  • Jonas Brothers
  • Lady Antebellum- They have quickly become my favorite country band and are proud holders of my #1 song of 2008. Too bad the stupid Jonas Brothers will win
  • Jazmine Sullivan
Best Female Country Vocal Performance
  • "For These Times" - Martina McBride
  • "What I Cannot Change" - LeAnn Rimes
  • "Last Name" - Carrie Underwood- Carrie has won this the last 2 years and this will make it 3 straight! I've heard of the Trisha song, but none of the others, this should be a lock!I LOVE her
  • "Last Call" - Lee Ann Womack
  • "This Is Me You're Talking To" - Trisha Yearwood
Best Male Country Vocal Performance
  • "You're Gonna Miss This" - Trace Adkins
  • "In Color" - Jamey Johnson
  • "Just Got Started Lovin' You" - James Otto
  • "Letter To Me" - Brad Paisley- Ever since Garth Brooks retired, Brad Paisley has been my favorite male country singer. His songs combine amazing lyrics whether they're humorous or heartfelt and his guitar playing is unmatched in country music!
  • "Troubadour" - George Strait
Best Country Performance By A Duo Or Group With Vocals
  • "God Must Be Busy" - Brooks & Dunn
  • "Love Don't Live Here" - Lady Antebellum- I've already talked about how awesome Lady Antebellum is and this was my #1 song of 2008. Rascal Flatts will probably win because they claim to be country, but are actually pop. So they have a bigger fanbase even though they suck!
  • "Every Day" - Rascal Flatts
  • "Blue Side Of The Mountain" - The SteelDrivers
  • "Stay" - Sugarland- ugh.....
Best Country Collaboration With Vocals
  • "Shiftwork" - Kenny Chesney & George Strait- I'm not a big fan of any of these songs. I love Little Big Town, but i hate that song with a passion! This song got annoying, but it's the best of the worst here
  • "Killing The Blues" - Robert Plant & Alison Krauss- never heard of it....
  • "House Of Cash" - George Strait & Patty Loveless
  • "Life In A Northern Town" - Sugarland, Jake Owen & Little Big Town
  • "Let The Wind Chase You" - Trisha Yearwood & Keith Urban
Best Country Song
  • "Dig Two Graves" - Randy Travis
  • "I Saw God Today" - George Strait- This was also in my top songs of 2008. Not a huge fan of George Strait, but this song is great! Any Christian would love this song!
  • "In Color" - Jamey Johnson
  • "Stay" - Sugarland- I hate this song with a passion and am finally glad that i don't have to see it on any more award shows
  • "You're Gonna Miss This" - Trace Adkins
Best Country Album
  • "That Lonesome Song" - Jamey Johnson
  • "Sleepless Nights" - Patty Loveless
  • "Troubadour" - George Strait- This is another one of those "best of the worst" ones. I like the one song, so that puts it ahead of these other ones by default
  • "Around The Bend" - Randy Travis
  • "Heaven, Heartache And The Power Of Love" - Trisha Yearwood
Best Song Written For Motion Picture, Television Or Other Visual Media

  • "Down to Earth"- Peter Gabriel (WALL-E)
  • "Ever Ever After" - Carrie Underwood (Enchanted)- I threw this one in just for fun. Carrie doesn't even get credit for this one because it's for the writers. But she should because her vocals make this one shine
  • "Say" - John Mayer (The Bucket List)
  • "That's How You Know" - Amy Adams (Enchanted)
  • "Walk Hard" - John C. Reilly (Walk Hard — The Dewey Cox Story)

I am talking to my friend Dani, the ultimate Jonas fan, right now.

We both are kinda mad at you for calling our boys stupid. They are good role models (and don't even start about the whole Joe-breaking-up-with-Taylor-on-the-phone thing. Joe was in EUROPE at the time. And if I heard correctly, Taylor hung up the phone and Joe was trying to call her back. So, lay off) and have great songs.

Well, the award has been presented!

Neither of our artists won. But that's okay. The JoBros are up for Favorite Music Group at the Kids Choice Awards. They'll win that!

i'll give them credit for being Christian, but that's about it. You won't find many guys that like them, period! And yeah, the Grammy people don't know anything about country music. We'll have to wait til April for some REAL country awards!

I think the Grammy's were pretty fair..... what'd you think of Taylor's performance with Miley?
Posted Feb 9, 2009 7:52 am PT
Oh except the Best New Artist award.... I don't like the Jonas Brothers but I hadn't heard of Adele until lastnight.

Kids Choice Awards are in March (I think). Jonas Brothers are up for favorite music group.

I'll post my votes another day.

Like i said before, i didn't watch them at all, so i had to YouTube everything. Most importantly, Carrie was amazing as expected! That Taylor/Miley duet was interesting because neither of them have very good vocals. Miley tries too hard and ends up sounding bad, just RELAX! Taylor started out country, then turned pop and Miley's always been pop. But pop music artists die out quick, so i believe they'll both be in country music eventually. And when i said a REAL awards show, i'm talking the CMT Awards. The KCA's are kinda a joke lol

I keep meaning to mention this to you Spartan:
My friend Steven called Taylor a silly blonde once. (But I believe he really loves Taylor).
Posted Feb 14, 2009 6:44 pm PT
well, she IS pretty funny, so if that's what he meant by it...he's right on!
Posted Feb 14, 2009 8:21 pm PT
He was calling her a silly blonde, because his name is Steven, and there's a song by her called "Hey Stephen" and he thought she was silly for spelling his name wrong.
Posted Feb 15, 2009 1:26 pm PT
well that's not exactly "silly"!
Posted Feb 16, 2009 5:53 pm PT
Oh, I forgot to mention:

Julianne IS going to be on DWTS this season, partnered with her boyfriend Chuck Wicks. So maybe you'll have to watch!
Posted Feb 18, 2009 6:40 pm PT
Yeah, I've been hearing that for a while. Never watched DWTS before, so i'm not gonna start now!

And I also think you'd like to know that one of the girls on Idol this week sang a Taylor song.......Stevie Wright sang "You Belong With Me". She didn't make it to the top 12.

And now I love "You Belong With Me" cuz it describes the situation with one of my crushes.
Posted Feb 20, 2009 6:46 am PT
i believe i mentioned something like that in my review of her CD!!
