Rabbit Heart 617 Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 http://www.metacritic.com/music/partners/barbra-streisand Haven't seen that before, I probably saw user reviews, but anyways sales were pretty good for her! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
PopBitch 1,218 Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 Barbra pls u have tons of them we really need this one pls pls pls Tony Bennett has tons of Grammy's, more than Barbra, including all of his collaboration albums and Barbra's collaboration albums. Barbra hasn't had a Grammy in years. That could be in her favor. But since they've been promoting the hell out of the album with live performances on TV compared to Barbra not, I give the edge to Cheek 2 Cheek.

giskardsb 12,565 Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 She co-wrote ONE of the songs and recorded it 40 years ago. That hardly is some great accomplishment. The whole Traditional Pop award is about cover songs from the 20s to 50s. It has nothing to do with songs from the 70s and 80s. People keep using the whole "covers" thing as an excuse for just not liking Jazz. Which cracks me up because 90 percent of this fan base had never heard these songs before. Not to mention that most pop songs are a singer "covering" some other songwriters song. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MelbHawker 6,583 Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 Maybe it was a personal highlight for Gaga or even a highlight for her as a vocalist, but a career one? Are you kidding me? When you look at her career as a whole it's a huge highlight in Pop Music history - she's absolutely taken control of mainstream Pop and influenced/dominated it. She's now released an album with one of the most celebrated artists of our time featuring music that none of her contemporaries can master & is the furthest thing away from mainstream Pop - the music she'll be most celebrated for. She's exposed the young kids of today to Pop Music from some 60 years ago, & she's still managed to nab a Grammy nomination for it, and sell a sh*t tonne of records. Yes, I think C2C is a highlight in her already-illustrious career. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeffrey_This_Way 68 Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 Close call for all of the reasons already mentioned. I won't be mad if Barbra gets it. Kudos to Annie Lennox being nominated too, she's amazing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Creyk 17,817 Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 It doesn't matter if she wins or not - C2C is a career highlight. Well when years later I'll look back at my fave Gags and her awesome career, this will NOT be the time I fondly remember How would this even be considered a highlight She's doing okay and most of us can't wait for her to get back to pop music Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SEANGT 5,296 Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 barbra has been waiting for another grammy almost as long/longer than Gaga has been alive. Gaga can wait a little longer lol. it's not like she's never won a grammy before. Also Barbra is great! She totally deserves it too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a career highlight for sure, besides which showing her real talent to many people and giving Her career more options. C2c will prove to be pivotal in the long run.

Matt Converse 18 Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 I won't lie and say I'd be happy for Babs or Annie, nothing against them personally, but I want that Grammy so bad I can taste it! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

How is it NOT a highlight? I love all types of music, and I love watching her shine. C2C is a highlight because of how amazing and beautiful her skill at singing Jazz is - and also how amazing her & Tony are together. No-one would ever imagine Lady Gaga owning Jazz on-stage with Tony Bennett - this has proven she's not some 'flash in the pan' as she's so often branded. It's been a huge success both musically, commercially and critically - and it's actually earned her a lot of new fans, surprised/stunted her doubters/critics and introduced a whole new genre of music to her already-existing fan base.

It doesn't matter that she's waited for over 20 years if Cheek to Cheek is a better album, which it absolutely is! In that logic, Katy should get one too since she has 0 for years now Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
