歌迷福利：第57屆格萊美提名獨家預測

The Grammys has already served up their nominees in lump of coal style.Here are the categories, with predicted winners in the text.

格萊美獎已經(jīng)為大家獻上了它的各獎項候選人名單，又冗長又雜亂，如同一堆煤塊。下文是各獎項的類別，外加對獲獎人的推測。

Album of the Year

年度最佳專輯

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·斯威夫特的專輯《1989》是在格萊美的隱性截止日期、10月1日之后才發(fā)行的，所以在明年的格萊美評獎活動之前這張專輯不具資格?；蛘呓衲晁部赡芾^續(xù)獲獎。

Double note: “Shake It Off” （可試聽）was released as a single before that cutoff, so it IS eligible this year.

再注：單曲《拜托》是在截止日期之前發(fā)行的，所以泰勒今年確實是有資格的。

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·史密斯是熱門選手，這名新人所卓識具有的天才，老式而傳統(tǒng)的音樂風格會讓格萊美的評委們熱衷，并在他的音樂生涯中一直對他加以關(guān)注(也就是獲獎啦!)，泰勒·斯威夫特的專輯發(fā)行量過百萬，這位多產(chǎn)的歌手注定要年年獲得格萊美獎。

Song of the Year

年度最佳單曲

“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：《關(guān)于那個胖女的一切》讓我很震撼，因為它正是那種可能僥幸獲勝的歌曲。為了不至驚嚇過度，我打算將它除名，不過如果它獲獎了，我一點也不會感到驚訝。那么還剩下斯威夫特、史密斯和西婭，出于下一個獎項的考慮，我覺得評委會會大發(fā)慈悲，把這個獎頒給西婭。

Best New Artist

最佳新人獎

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·史密斯還有誰應(yīng)該獲獎呢?沒有了，所以山姆·史密斯贏定了。

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：這個獎項包含了許多關(guān)于格萊美偏好變化趨勢的信息，這些信息相互交疊，難以分辨其中包括熱門的新人、確實堪稱佳作的歌曲、已經(jīng)獲得過格萊美認可的藝人、先前獲得過格萊美獎的歌曲的新現(xiàn)場版等等。呃，拜托還是頒給山姆·史密斯吧。

Best Pop Duo/Group Performance

最佳流行樂隊/組合

“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：按道理來說，《幻想》應(yīng)該摘得此獎，因為它也獲得了今年最佳流行專輯的提名，不過評委會不太喜歡按照道理來行事。注意酷玩樂隊今年可能要失望啦。

Best Pop Vocal Album

最佳流行演唱專輯

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：評委會或許會覺得有責任為那些較為落魄，知名度較低的歌手能賣出更多專輯助一臂之力，因而將此獎頒給山姆·史密斯的《孤獨時刻》。

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：根據(jù)格萊美的傳統(tǒng)，他們喜歡把獎頒給那些對數(shù)年前的老歌的翻唱作品，頒給早已成名的歌手。這一獎項上發(fā)掘樂隊和瑪麗·布萊姬的聯(lián)合陣容。

Best Dance/Electronic Album

最佳電子/舞曲專輯

Syro – Aphex Twin

While (1<2) – Deadmau5

Nabuma Rubberband – Little Dragon

Do It Again – Royksopp & Robyn

Damage Control – Mat Zo

Note: This is an eclectic bunch of albums. I don’t think the voters have much love for Aphex Twin, despite it being the best album on this list. I imagine Deadmau5 will win, since he’s the only artist here that would care about it.

注：這些專輯都風格迥異啊。我覺得評委們不太喜歡愛飛克斯雙胞胎，雖然他們的專輯可能是這些候選專輯中最棒的。我猜想Deadmau5可能會勝出，因為他是這些候選人中唯一會在乎這個獎項的人。
