afansince74 Posted December 8, 2004 Share Posted December 8, 2004 QUOTE (Moonraker @ Dec 7 2004, 04:22 PM)You're kidding!!!! You mean music institutions are actually paying attention to Rush all of the sudden?!?! Yea right! These are the same folks who "payed attention" to YYZ but gave a Grammy to The Police for "Behind My Camel" in 1982. Have you ever heard Behind My Camel??!! I'll concede 1992's choice of Eric Johnson's "Cliffs of Dover" to win over "Where's My Thing" (not that I think it's better, just that it could have gone either way back then). Anyway, I'm not anticipating them winning with these kind of people making the choices (come on, "Behind My Camel", really??!! ), just always hopeful Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently the eligibility period begins October 1 rather than Jan. 1...so for this year's Grammies, Oct. 1/2003 is beginning of eligibilty period...RiR was released late October....

Drumnut Posted December 16, 2004 Share Posted December 16, 2004 McLachlan, Rush make Grammy radar Angela Pacienza Canadian Press December 7, 2004 TORONTO (CP) -- This year's crop of homegrown Grammy nominees runs the gamut from the usual suspects -- Shania Twain, Sarah McLachlan and Nickelback -- to pleasant surprises like Rush and jazz guitarist Benoit Charest. Other Canuck-born nominees include polka king Walter Ostanek, producer David Foster and the orchestra of Tafelmusik. Composer Howard Shore returns to the Grammys with two nominees for his famed Lord of the Rings score. He's already a favourite, after the scores for the first two Rings films won him Grammys in 2003 and 2002. He scored the Oscar last year too. Shore will also compete in the best song from a film category for Annie Lennox's Into the West, a song he co-wrote. He'll be up against Charest. The Montreal songwriter co-wrote the title tune of The Triplets of Belleville, an animated film made in Montreal. The song was also nominated for an Oscar last year. Twain was a double nominee with nods for the song She's Not Just a Pretty Face in the female country vocal performance category and another for her Dolly Parton-tribute duet with Alison Kraus, Coat of Many Colors. 2 PAGE ARTICLE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iamtoughtobeat Posted December 16, 2004 Share Posted December 16, 2004 Yes it is a very pleasant surprise. Good for Neil. But if the Police beat YYZ im not very confident. Granted that was 22 years ago so well just have to wait and see. Crossing my fingers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rolinda Bonz Posted December 17, 2004 Share Posted December 17, 2004 I hope Neil wins, and I hope he will show up. I could be wrong, but isn't he only avoiding interviews since the tragedies? He writes a d@mn good acceptance speech, and hopefully nobody will be asking those "how are you DOING?" questions at an award ceremony. Well, anyway, I'm thrilled that he was nominated.

spirit of radio Posted December 17, 2004 Share Posted December 17, 2004 The boys should have a handful of these little awards by now but unfortunetly they fly so low under the radar the pop world barely notices.A grammy win is about 20 years overdue and admission into the rock& roll hall of fame is 10. So lets not put alot of faith into a bunch of old, out of touch, chart watching dorks to award a grammy to someone who actually deserves it. http://www.therushforum.net/html/emoticons/NeilFinal.gif Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GhostGirl Posted December 17, 2004 Share Posted December 17, 2004 Sage wisdom from the Simpsons... Homer: Why won't anyone give me an award? Lisa: You won a grammy. Homer: I mean an award that's worth winning. Legal Disclaimer: Mr. Simpson's opinions do not reflect those of the producers, who don't consider the Grammy an award at all. http://www.therushforum.net/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
petsounds75 Posted December 17, 2004 Share Posted December 17, 2004 Brian Wilson or Neil Peart...man, decisions decisions. Smile is an awesome piece of work - although I like the 1966 stuff much better than the 2004...and Neil Peart is so damn good of a lyricist and drummer...jeez...that's really hard to see. They're probably give it to Vai or someone like that. http://www.therushforum.net/html/emoticons/062802puke_prv.gif I mean, come on...Shania and Nickelback are in this lineup? They're talking about sales and nothing more. Nickelback is a bunch of idiots who sing about alcohol or something related to it and Shania needs to get naked, get it over with, and disappear forever. It's all glitz and braindead namby pamby stuff anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
