Are you sure about that? I saw Alison Krauss win an award this evening (although she was so blase that you might not have noticed), so I think that would have upped her total?

Yes, Allison Krauss won at least the one award that was televised tonight. Don't know if she picked up any others, but definitely at least one.

I did not know that, I'll add her total when I know how many she won.

U2 will get to the top of this list. I guarantee it. I think they're actually going after it. If they put out another album with the first single being eligible for one Grammy year and the album up for the next and they win 8 again, they've just about got it. No problem.

I still can't believe Achtung Baby didn't get it and ATYCLB lost to "Oh Brother Where Art Thou?".

EDIT: My bad, I momentarily lost my mind there apparently...

phanan · 02-09-2006, 10:38 AM

Yeah, she's up to 20 now. Very impressive in her own right.

powerhour24 · 02-09-2006, 11:27 AM

Easily the highest total for any band, or anyone in the mainstream, 9 to go to tie the record for their career? I think it can be done.

Realistically in terms of Popular Music, U2 are 2nd in the All Time Grammy List behind Stevie Wonder. A marvelous performance and a tribute to all the great music they have released down the years.

However it must be noted that some of the awards that U2 have won did not exist back in the 70's and some, such as Rock Album and Rock Song have only been in existance since the early 90's. If these awards existed back in the 50's, 60's and 70's, maybe the Beatles, Stones, Bruce Springsteen etc would have had more. However this doesn't take away from U2's performance.

Also, I dont think Sting and the Police should be Categorised together, nor Shud Paul Simon and Art Garfunkal as many of their awards were won seperately, not together.

Where are The Rolling Stones!?!?! The Beatles!?!?!? Springsteen!?!? Dylan??!!?! etc etc

Not insignificantly, both have impressed Grammy voters with strong performances on past telecasts, including Blige's spine-tingling duet with U2 on the Irish band's song "One" — the recorded version of which is a favorite for a record of the year nomination.

Song

Dixie Chicks' "Not Ready to Make Nice," Timberlake's "Sexyback," Tunstall's "Black Horse and the Cherry Tree," Gnarls Barkley's "Crazy," Blunt's "You're Beautiful." Also in the running are Underwood's "Jesus, Take the Wheel," Mayer's "Waiting for the World to Change" and Blige's "Be Without You."

Record

Gnarls Barkley's "Crazy," the Blige/U2 duet "One," Aguilera's "Ain't No Other Man," Timberlake's "Sexyback," Dixie Chicks' "Not Ready to Make Nice" — though Kanye West's "Touch the Sky" could get consideration (the "Late Registration" album, of course, was eligible last year, but this single is up this year).

New artist

Gnarls Barkley, Blunt, Raye, Tunstall, Underwood, with particularly strong challenges from Panic! at the Disco and Ne-Yo.
