2013 Grammy Nominations List



The list of next year's Grammy nominees has been released...Yawn....

I don't really have much to say about it, but I'm happy to see P!nk, Kelly Clarkson, Björk, Tamia (!) and Florence And The Machine on the list. Also, I love Rihanna but a nod for "Best Pop Solo Performance" is a joke.
