Not The Critics' Darlings...

... but maybe this is the year!

The 52nd annual Grammy Award Nominees have been announced, and our boys are on the list!!!

Best Pop Performance By A Duo Or Group With Vocals
(For established duos or groups, with vocals. Singles or Tracks only.)

  • I Gotta Feeling
    The Black Eyed Peas
    Track from: The E.N.D.
    [Interscope Records]

  • We Weren't Born To Follow
    Bon Jovi
    Track from: The Circle
    [Island Records]

  • Never Say Never
    The Fray
    Track from: The Fray
    [Epic]

  • Sara Smile
    Daryl Hall & John Oates
    Track from: Live At The Troubadour
    [Shout! Factory]

  • Kids
    MGMT
    Track from: Oracular Spectacular
    [Columbia]


I'll admit, when I first saw this, I thought it was a hoax because "Sara Smile" was released off of Hall & Oats' first record (in 1976, I think) and the articles I saw didn't mention it was from a live show.

Anyone know if the guys will be there? The 52nd Annual GRAMMY Awards live from Staples Center in Los Angeles on Sunday, Jan. 31, 2010, and broadcast on CBS at 8 p.m. ET/PT.

  1. Given the number of times the band has been nominated, I'm not holding my breath on this one.

    And, unless they are performing, I would think they will not be there ... or maybe just Richie will go since he's out there.

    It would be nice for them to win a Grammy for a rock/pop song rather than the sole country one they have ... but in the end, I find the whole process to be a bit of a farce.

    Nonetheless, its wonderful that they were recognized. Go boys!

  2. I hope they won't ever make it to the guinness book of world records as the band with most nominations and only one won Grammy
