Here are two more examples for the case against the Grammys from the 2004 Grammy nominations:
Best Hard Rock Performance
"Slither" Velvet Revolver
Best Rock Song
"Fall To Pieces" Velvet Revolver
Best Rock Album
Contraband Velvet Revolver
If a tree falls in a forest and no one is around to hear it, does it still warrant three fuckin' nominations?
Best Solo Rock Vocal Performance
"Wonderwall" Ryan Adams
If that song deserves a nomination, then so does "Hallelujah" by Jeff Buckley. Hell, why not just nominate every mopey song repeatedly featured on teen soap operas this year?
Karaoke Champion 2004 nominees
(best unapologetically bombastic song to sing along to when drunk)
"Beating Heart Baby" Head Automatica
"Mr. Brightside" The Killers
"My Happy Ending" Avril Lavigne
"Scars" Papa Roach
"Vindicated" Dashboard Confessional
