This is, of course, an eyewateringly long list - and, actually, it's not even really "full" as it seems to be missing the polka and spoken word and bassoon trio categories, amongst others. Obviously, it's heartbreakingly poor - McCartney nominated for the Best album? He might just scrape in as 'best record Macca's made for ten years', but best album? Although it's fighting off the Emancipation of Mimi, Gwen Stefani's solo dud and U2's effort. If there's any justice, Kanye will walk it.
Keane will be delighted at their place on the Best New Artist list - it's interesting that you hear of all these acts supposedly going to break America, but the ones which really do fairly well always seem to be the quiet ones.
My Doorbell by the White Stripes a contender in "best pop perfomance" has probably even surprised Jack White - we know he tried hard, but even he must know he tried too hard.
But what's really surprising is the old names cropping up - Stevie Wonder, Kraftwerk; in one category there's Clapton, Springsteen, Young and Plant all jostling Rob Thomas for space - what sort of world is it where Thomas counts as a young upstart?
