"the categories the chems were nomintated in 2006 weren't televised."


Yay, I can stop being disappointed.


I don't want to sound like a blind fanboy, but if anyone but the chems win, I'll be surprised... well, if LCD beat them, I won't be as angry.

hahaha!


I was thinking Burst Generator...

(only because Saturate is too out there for most people's taste)

what if I said you're a fruit?


p.s. GO CHEMS! Despite my prediction, I really hope they win.

generally they only recognize singles released from an album. hence do it again.


also, weren't they nominated for GYH a few years back as well? did they lose that one?

I predict chems for both as the times they are a certianly becoming different.

I think DIA is totally the best dance track on the album! It's horribly catchy and I haven't met a person yet that disliked it.

how do catchiness and widespread appeal equate to greatness?

Well, take the difference between a song being popular because of the person behind the music, and a song that is popular because of the song it self. It's got to have something going for it. ^^


I'm not saying, of course, that DIA should win because of it's appeal. But it IS a great track.

Yes, sometimes it's hard to know if you like a song or you're singing it because you hear it all the time.

I don't hear DIA all the time over here. I wish I did! Hell, hearing it on the radio would be awesome! But, sadly...

I very rarely bother with FM radio these days. I get tired of the roster, and I don't care for what counts as "alternative music" these days. There's a college radio station near us that's pretty good, but only if you're within a 6 mile radius of the station's location.


Satellite radio was cool. I heard the Chems quite a bit on the Sirius Boombox channel - but alas our subscription ran out. Where we live, for some reason, the transmission was lousy - kept cutting out so we didn't bother with renewing.

Yeah, I don't bother with FM anymore either. And even using the internet stations iTunes advertises has been somewhat abandoned. My cable Music Choice station, however, is awesome! I hear Chemical Brothers songs all the time. Flashback was even on there once, which was awesome. I like the song a lot, for some reason.


CyberFlash, who is my friend IRL, is a certified radio DJ and had to sub for someone's show at the local radio station. I swear, half the time he was throwing up Chems songs. XP So that was a blast hearing song after song on the air.

The Chems are the only band even close to being worthy of an award this year. But will they get it? Probably not.


As long as Justice doesn't get it, I'll be happy.

Exactly, the Grammy's (and every other awards event) is about who has the best marketing.
