Norah's album was incredible and she had potential to go far, as Avril also did. She has a nice voice and her writing was more adult-oriented, I believe that's the reason they awarded Norah instead of Avril. I also believe they were both very popular in their own niches, but in the end Avril managed to get more hits from Let go, mostly because she was marketed for teenagers and all that she represented.
As for a new Grammy nomination, in my opinion, only if she delivers a very - VERY - successful single. Otherwise she will be ignored as usual, which I honestly don't care. The only reason Id want to see Avril in red carpets is to see her slaying on fancy dresses looking gorgeous and people going like OMG SHE DOESNT AGE

Your post says it all Just because youβre not familiar with an artist who sold over 25 million records doesnβt mean the rest of us are.

I guess you missed the post above where it shows Let Go being more popular than Come Away? Donβt tell me.mp3 Nora was innocent indie girl whose debut album outsold Let Go by a chance ed: I have nothing against her, I just feel a little bit strange about Avril was overboarded out of every nomination she got, at least she deserved one, thatβs what people say here. Of course nobody cares about Nora because itβs not her fan site

yeah honestly if she lost to that nora whoever she heck she is jones whilst at her best, she would probably lose to anybody at this point, if she even got nominated, which, if even harry styles couldn't get a nomination, is probably a slim next to impossible chance.
i think the fact that kesha lost is proof that when it comes to the grammys, talent, quality and popularity aren't ever enough or even a requirement.

Hahaha we're all different ages with different tastes. Literally doesn't matter if we know who Nora is or not, I've never heard of her. It was what, 15 years ago?

I don't think Avril needs a smash hit to get a nomination again, praying didn't hit the BB top 20 and got one.
But isn't Avril banned from the grammys? I heard she said something about the Grammys years ago, I am not sure that's why I am asking. Also don't you have to apply for the awards? Like you send your songs to the staff in the grammys and then they decide who gets the nomination. Maybe that's why Girlfriend did not get one, Gf is way better than Despacito IMO. I don't like Bruno Mars that much I feel he's like a Michael Jackson wannabe.
IMO lorde has the best album of the year, it's like Under My Skin 2.0 for me.

Melodrama deserved to win AOTY but what to expect when Lorde was the only one from that category who couldn't even perform... And I'd be happy about any other winner (Kesha, Kelly Clarkson, P!nk, Lady Gaga) for Best Pop Solo Performance than Ed Sheeran. He didn't even deserve Best Pop Vocal Album IMO.
I really don't care about Grammys anymore, these awards mean nothing nowadays, you can have an album that is both really popular and praised by critics, be nominated in several categories and at the end lose to a mediocre album and don't win in any category...
