The Grammys has already served up their nominees in lump of coal style.Here are the categories, with predicted winners in the text.
格莱美奖已经为大家献上了它的各奖项候选人名单,又冗长又杂乱,如同一堆煤块。下文是各奖项的类别,外加对获奖人的推测。
Album of the Year
年度最佳专辑
Morning Phase – Beck
Beyoncé – Beyoncé
x – Ed Sheeran
In the Lonely Hour – Sam Smith
G I R L – Pharrell Williams
Note: Taylor Swift’s 1989 came out after the STUPID cutoff date of October 1st, so it isn’t eligible until next year’s Grammy’s. It would be a runaway win for her otherwise.
注:泰勒·斯威夫特的专辑《1989》是在格莱美的隐性截止日期、10月1日之后才发行的,所以在明年的格莱美评奖活动之前这张专辑不具资格。或者今年她也可能继续获奖。
Double note: “Shake It Off” was released as a single before that cutoff, so it IS eligible this year.
再注:单曲《拜托》是在截止日期之前发行的,所以泰勒今年确实是有资格的。
Record of the Year
年度最佳唱片
“Fancy” – Iggy Azalea featuring Charli XCX
“Chandelier” – Sia
“Stay with Me” (Darkchild Version) – Sam Smith
“Shake It Off” – Taylor Swift
“All About That Bass” – Meghan Trainor
Note: First, Sam Smith is the hot, new artist with some legitimate talent that makes old-ish style, traditional music that the Grammy committee will latch onto (PUN VICTORY!) for his entire career.. Taylor Swift is a million-record selling, established powerhouse primed to win Grammys yearly.
注:首先,山姆·史密斯是热门选手,这名新人所卓识具有的天才,老式而传统的音乐风格会让格莱美的评委们热衷,并在他的音乐生涯中一直对他加以关注(也就是获奖啦!),泰勒·斯威夫特的专辑发行量过百万,这位多产的歌手注定要年年获得格莱美奖。
Song of the Year
年度最佳单曲
“All About That Bass” – Meghan Trainor
“Chandelier” – Sia
“Shake It Off” – Taylor Swift
“Stay with Me” (Darkchild Version) – Sam Smith
“Take Me to Church” – Hozier
Note: “All About that Bass” scares me a ton,because it’s the kind of song that would sneak this win. For my sanity, I’m going to rule it out, but I won’t be surprised at all if it wins. This one comes down to Swift, Smith, and Sia , and because of the next award, I think they spread the love and give it to Sia.
注:《关于那个胖女的一切》让我很震撼,因为它正是那种可能侥幸获胜的歌曲。为了不至惊吓过度,我打算将它除名,不过如果它获奖了,我一点也不会感到惊讶。那么还剩下斯威夫特、史密斯和西娅,出于下一个奖项的考虑,我觉得评委会会大发慈悲,把这个奖颁给西娅。
Best New Artist
最佳新人奖
HAIM
Bastille
Sam Smith
Iggy Azalea
Brandy Clark
Note: Does anyone other the Sam Smith make sense? No. Ok, Sam Smith is winning.
注:除了山姆·史密斯还有谁应该获奖呢?没有了,所以山姆·史密斯赢定了。
Best Pop Solo Performance
最佳流行歌手
“All of Me (Live)” – John Legend
“Chandelier” – Sia
“Stay with Me” (Darkchild Version) – Sam Smith
“Shake It Off” – Taylor Swift
“Happy (Live)” – Pharrell Williams
Note: There are so many overlapping Grammy trends here, you can’t sort it. The hot new artist, the actually performed well song, many established Grammy approved artists, live performances of previous Grammy-winning songs, etc. Ugh. Please give it to Sam Smith.
注:这个奖项包含了许多关于格莱美偏好变化趋势的信息,这些信息相互交叠,难以分辨其中包括热门的新人、确实堪称佳作的歌曲、已经获得过格莱美认可的艺人、先前获得过格莱美奖的歌曲的新现场版等等。呃,拜托还是颁给山姆·史密斯吧。
Best Pop Duo/Group Performance
最佳流行乐队/组合
“Fancy” – Iggy Azalea feat. Charli XCX
“A Sky Full of Stars” – Coldplay
“Say Something” – A Great Big World and Christina Aguilera
“Bang Bang” – Jessie J, Ariana Grande, & Nicki Minaj
“Dark Horse” – Katy Perry feat. Juicy J
Note: Logically, “Fancy” picks up the win here, as it’s nominated for Record of the Year, but logic isn’t something the academy likes all that much. Watch for a Coldplay upset.
注:按道理来说,《幻想》应该摘得此奖,因为它也获得了今年最佳流行专辑的提名,不过评委会不太喜欢按照道理来行事。注意酷玩乐队今年可能要失望啦。
Best Pop Vocal Album
最佳流行演唱专辑
Ghost Stories – Coldplay
Bangerz – Miley Cyrus
My Everything – Ariana Grande
Prism – Katy Perry
x – Ed Sheeran
In the Lonely Hour – Sam Smith
Note: The committee might as well feel responsible for pushing the less successful, lesser known artist more sales, and hand this one to In the Lonely Hour and Sam Smith.
注:评委会或许会觉得有责任为那些较为落魄,知名度较低的歌手能卖出更多专辑助一臂之力,因而将此奖颁给山姆·史密斯的《孤独时刻》。
Best Dance Recording
最佳舞曲唱片
“Never Say Never” – Basement Jaxx
“Rather Be” – Clean Bandit feat. Jess Glynne
“F For You” – Disclosure feat. Mary J. Blige
“I Got U” – Duke Dumont feat. Jax Jones
“Faded” – Zhu
Note: Based on the Grammy tradition of awarding remade songs from years past and re-awarding long-time established artist, look for Disclosure and Mary J Blige to take this one.
注:根据格莱美的传统,他们喜欢把奖颁给那些对数年前的老歌的翻唱作品,颁给早已成名的歌手。这一奖项上发掘乐队和玛丽·布莱姬的联合阵容。
Best Dance/Electronic Album
最佳电子/舞曲专辑
Syro – Aphex Twin
