"Let It Go" is a pop song?

LET IT GO was not nominated for Record of the Year either. It is unlikely it will get Song Of the Year or will "FROZEN" Album of the Year.

It's not Beyonce, Taylor Swift, Pharrell, or the awful new female rapper of the year, and those are the only people the Grammies recognize.

Sia was nom'd so I'm happy.

Will she perform with her back to the audience?!

I would be surprised if "Let It Go" wasn't nominated for Best Song Written for Visual Media but anything more than that would be surprising to me. Were people really expecting it to break into the General field categories?

Words don't deserve that kind of malarkey. They're innocent, neutral, precise, standing for this, describing that, meaning the other, so if you look after them you can build bridges across incomprehension and chaos. But when they get their corners knocked off, they're no good anymore…I don't think writers are sacred, but words are. They deserve respect. If you get the right ones in the right order, you can nudge the world a little.

It may still be nominated in the "Best Song Written On A Tuesday Sung By Lady Who Was In Wicked Ten Years Ago, Also Rent Before That".

It is much more popular than the BEAUTY & THE BEAST duet by Celine/Bryson. So, yes, I was expecting it the break into the General Field. That duet, was nominated for Record of the Year and Best Pop Duo.

^ Yes, but aren't these (ostensibly) nominated on the basis of quality, not popularity?

Technically, by that trend, Demi Lovato's "Let It Go" would have been nominated instead of Idina's.

Right. But there are several other Disney wins for Best song written specifically for a movie or television. The pop "versions" of the film songs go into the pop category.

"Let It Go" is also very easily quarantined into a musical-theatre box which those Elton recordings weren't. They were written and recorded by an adored pop star with a decades-long career and a history of Grammys. And they weren't the actual vocal tracks from the musical but the re-recorded pop ballads. And that tradition includes the pop/R&B cover of "A Whole New World" that won, as well as "Somewhere Out There" which won Song of the Year in the 80s from AN AMERICAN TAIL.

These are similar, but not analogous. If Beyoncé covered "Let It Go" on the FROZEN soundtrack and that had radio play, that would be nominated in the General field categories.

Why would she? Her nasal screeching is painful to listen to. Besides, it's not most popular song of the year. Updated On: 12/5/14 at 01:14 PM
