hope and pray BRUNO MARS wins most of his nominations! he’s amazing! pure talent…
BRUNO MARS for the WIN!
ano ang common sa mga nominees?
outstanding record sales.. masyado tayong nakaabang sa magiging kapalaran ni charice, nakakalimutan nating in reality 60,000 sales in first week ang album ni charice no. 8 on first week sa billboard, after nun wala na.
though charice is one heck of a talent, pero sad to say pinapalakpakan at S.O> pa talaga si charice sa live performances, youtube, at sa ting mga pinoy. pero sa american market wala pa, di pa din sya natatak. ito ang reason bakit binubuhos ng mga tao sa likod niya ang effort for people in the us familiarize with her.
once charice made it big on album sales, grammy will follow kasehodang di kagandahan ang mga songs. album sales at airplay ang labanan sa grammy.
isa pang dapat tutukan eh ang pagcover cover ni charice ng songs, yeah she’s great doing it at yun ang hinahahnap ng tao sa kanya. pero somehow maling move yun, kasi may sarili syang songs, paano mapafamiliarize ang tao kung puro celine, whitney, mariah kinakanta nya sa shows at concert.
remember iba na ang labanan ngayon, kahit d kagandahan ang boses, packaging ang ultimate goal ng nagbebenta ng music sa us.
look at mariah’s last album memoirs, no. 3 lang. sadly medyo nalate ang pasok ni charice kung nung 90s in na in ang style at rivalry ng 3 divas (mariah, celine, whiteney) wala na yun ngayon. sino ang sikat, lady gaga, justine bieber, rihhana, miley cyrus, taylor swift? may belter ba sa mga yan? lalaban ba yan ng sabayann sa talent ng mga divas? pero bakit sila sikat? at maraming grammy nominations.? ALBUM SALES!
yun po ang reason why charice is in glee, to get her more known sa us market at magkaron ng mass appeal.
ang ending di gaanong click ang pyramid album nya. hope they handle her well kasi sayang ang talent nya kung puro youtube at sana makaduet ko si ganito ganun ang mangyayari.
minsan lang isang full blooded pinoy ang makapasok sa us music scene sana wag masayang. wag presurin si charice magkagrammy ituon muna ang pansin kung paano bibilhin ng tao sa us market ang album na ilalabas nya next.
right now i must say tamang move ang glee exposure, guestingsa shows ni david at short stint sa movies. time is ticking baka mamaya may bagong lumabas na bata at bagong youtube sensation na kahuhumalingan sa internet.
if you want to support sa charice kung sa pinas ka wala kang masydong magagawa, pero kung may kamag-anak, kaibigan sa us dun ang sentro ng labanan, tell them bilhin ang album na ilalabas ni charice. that’s the best way to support her.
no ill feeelings on this one just an obsevation.
opinion rin kasi nang iba na medyo bias din ang grammy sa american artists. mas pinapanalo nila ang kalahi nila in all categories na hindi masyadong “mainstream” ang dating. anyways, kung totoong charice will guest in the acual ceremony i say kick their assess!
na shock lanmg ako halo ni beyonce nominated ulit… last year yan din yong song nya which she won sa pop category tapos yan na naman tapos ang kaibahan lang live what the f8ck… I’m not saying di sya magaling pero pwede naMAN SIGURO NA iba na lang ang binigyan na ikalimang slot diba… pwede namang si christina aguilera para sa song nya na you lost diba…
Gaga rocks???
JB who?? Jonas Bros?
mariah the best
EMINEM all the way!!!
the best single artist of 2000 and above followed by britney hehehe
@2.cha–final n po yan..tlgng inaanounce ang nominations s december..
justin beiber?relly?the kid is cute but not as talented as adam lambert or susan boyle who were snubbed..
kaaty perry?album of the year?really?
popularity contest nb 2?
charice?asa p kau..ni wla ngang impact ang album nya s sales..kng artistical merit rin lng,pwd xa pro ung mga kanta s album nya ay boring..
Recovery album of Eminem will definitely win album of the year. Sobrang gaganda ng mga songs nia….. but Need you now ng lady antebellum will be a tough competitor. I love both of them. they gave really beautiful and meaningful songs unlike katy perry’s and lady gaga’s stupid creations….
lady gaga is a freak…go JB for new artist!
honestly, i wasn’t surprised about this. wala pa kasing something remarkable na naipapakita si charice sa american music industry. i mean on due account sa isinubmit na materials for the grammys which i think is her pyramid single with IYAZ at ang album niya. para sa mga kano, she’s like a less-attractive equally-talented asian version of JoJo. sana something really good ang second album niya para mapansin talaga cya without some boost from the big O. pero in fairness rin naman kay Charice, mukhang very critical talaga ang Grammy regarding artists na nagdidivadivahan. gusto ata nila yung mga well-rounded musicians talaga – can write, can sing their own songs.
@cha: Actually final set of nominees na yan. You can check the list at CBS.com and unfortunately, Charice is not nominated in any category… 🙁
