were delayed from January until this Sunday, April 3 — when they will take place at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas (airing at 8 p.m. ET on CBS with host Trevor Noah) — some of these nominees feel as if they came out last decade instead of last year.
Indeed, the nominations were announced in November, and the release cutoff for nominees to be eligible was way back in September. Which explains why Adele isn’t even nominated for her smash single “Easy on Me” or her blockbuster album “30.”But that certainly opens up the field for the rest of the contenders.
And really, there are no clear favorites in the top categories, which should make for a few surprises when the envelopes are at long last opened.“I Still Have Faith in You” — Abba “Freedom” — Jon Batiste “I Get a Kick Out of You” — Tony Bennett & Lady Gaga “Peaches” — Justin Bieber featuring Daniel Caesar & Giveon“Right on Time” — Brandi Carlile “Kiss Me More” — Doja Cat Featuring SZA “Happier Than Ever” — Billie Eilish Will win: Bennett and Gaga. There’s no way the Recording Academy is not going to pay a Big 4 salute to the legendary Bennett, who, suffering from Alzheimer’s disease at 95, will be watching from his New York City home while Gaga reps for both of them at the Grammys.
And while they’ve also got a shot at winning Album of the Year, with no clear favorite in this category, they’ve got an even better chance here. Should win: Silk Sonic.
In terms of pure musicianship, straight-up soul and the smoothest of sexiness, “Leave the Door Open” was untouchable. “We Are” — Jon Batiste“Love for Sale” — Tony Bennett And Lady Gaga“Justice (Triple Chucks Deluxe)” — Justin Bieber“Planet Her (Deluxe)” — Doja Cat“Happier Than Ever” — Billie Eilish“Back of My Mind” —
