It's not pop its Jazz!? Why wouldn't it be nominated in one of those sections instead?

Pop music doesn't just mean pop.

There is not a category for jazz songs at all so basically all of them has to compete in pop categories. Jazz album exists though.

I keep seeking out reviews from the shows.

 

Taking the stage with him was a gift to Tony Bennett, and to all of us -- helping fans hear him again one last time, shower him with applause and say thank you. And for the rest of us, it was priceless to have a night of live music and seem normal again, even when we know normal is a long way off

 

While Bennett has a handful of shows scheduled, this performance still seemed like a poignant goodbye to perhaps the longest career in show business. Tony Bennett is 95, Covid-19 is resurging, nothing is guaranteed.

 

Which made the night all the more extraordinary. A star of Lady Gaga's wattage doesn't need to give gifts like this, but she did. And I am grateful.

 

Just lovely :wub:

That’s bizarre, I’ve never really followed the Grammys but I did know there were different genre categories, you think it would just be album of the year, song of the year then the individual categories. I’ve always found the Grammys a bit ridiculous in that you can have someone win record of the year but then someone different win song!? Or an album gets album of year but then doesn’t always win it in its genre field???

is there not an adult contemporary category?

:heart:

AC doesn't exist at the Grammys, it's more of a radio thing I think? The closest to that is Traditional Pop Vocal Album, but again, no song category there.

This week's #10 album sold 3.9k, and to think that Cheek To Cheek debuted at #10 in 2014 selling 10.5k in pure sales, enough to be #3 this week.

Yeah I think it might do something around that figure.

Oooh

Great that Europe is getting something!
