Grammy Battle 2007: Death Cab Versus Cuties

posted by on December 12 at 9:45 AM

So last week brought that annual parade of bewilderment known as the Grammy nominations. Key to the morbid fascination of the Grammys is the bizarre arbitrariness of the category groupings, illustrated most delightfully by this year’s nominees for Best Pop Performance by a Duo or Group, which pit local heroes Death Cab for Cutie against both the Black Eyed Peas and the Pussycat Dolls.

Attention Death Cab: I understand your placement in the pop category was beyond your control. Neverthless, if you lose to either “My Humps” or a bunch of lip-synching strippers, don’t bother taking another in-breath.

For the full list of nominees, go here.

You write lip-synching strippers like it's a bad thing.

Two of them look like drag queens, so that might be a bad thing, unless you're Eddie Murphy.

LOL Schmader, like DCFC can control the secret arbitrary voting process of a bunch of industry tools.
