Green Day nominated at the Grammys

In my opinion, Green Day deserve to win.

I thought WCH was great. And i don't see why they shouldn't get the award because it's a cover. It's for "Best Rock Performance" not best song writing.

Exactly.

I don't like the original more, no. I like the song just fine.

It is my opinion though, that artists should only get awards for their own work, not someone else's.

It's a cover made by another artist. The cover is their work, but not the original song.

Another version of a song can be better than the original, sometimes good enough to win an award.

I never said it wasn't good, nor good enough to win an award. It is, in fact, good enough to win an award.

Best cover, that's all.

Good thing they kept putting out 1 song every year since "How to Dismantle blah blah blah" so he didn't have to eat babies.

While I love the WCH cover and all, I'm going with U2 on this. With the exception of last year, when have they ever lost (in recent memory)? I personally like WCH more than the U2 song, but as shown with the nominations this year (and years past) quality doesn't really factor in a lot...

This explains why the death rate in Africa was so much higher pre-1987... the world now makes complete sense...

I am kinda torn on this. I want Green day to win, I love the cover of WCH and I think they made it their own. I just think that maybe people should win Grammy's for their own music....fence sitter much? XD

Meh, I am not bothered as long as U2 don't win. :D

Eh, I have to say, I would much prefer a win if it was in some "best cover" category. I feel like it needs to be an original work to be nominated for that.

Anyways, I'm for Icky Thump or WCH.

I loved their interpretation of WCH as well, and I think they so totally deserve to win an award for it! Best Rock Performance - whether it's their own song or not, this song certainly tops that category.

Good luck to the guys and yay, hopefully they will be there! :)
