Nesta sexta, 5, foram anunciados durante todo o dia, os indicados à 57ª edição do Grammy Awards, que acontece em fevereiro de 2015. Considerada a maior premiação da música, as listas de indicações são sempre motivos de discussões entre os admiradores. Beyoncé (mais uma vez) sai na frente e acaba de se tornar a cantora com maior número de indicações na história do Grammy – este ano com 6, se igualando ao ‘novato‘ Sam Smith, que com o primeiro álbum de sua carreira, alcançou o mesmo número de indicações que a diva. Ed Sheeran, Taylor Swift, Miley Cyrus, Katy Perry, Ariana Grande e Iggy Azalea também aparecem nas principais categorias.
Se para alguém ainda restavam dúvidas sobre o potencial de Ariana Grande, agora não há mais. A pequena, com uma voz poderosa, acaba de receber a sua primeira indicação ao Grammy, e de quebra, em uma das principais categorias, a de ‘Melhor Álbum Vocal Pop‘, com o álbum “My Everything“. Ao lado dela aparecem também outros grandes destaques do ano, como Miley Cyrus com o disco “Bangerz” (lembrando que esta é, também, a primeira indicação da cantora ao prêmio), Ed Sheeran, como “X“, Katy Perry e seu álbum “Prism” e Sam Smith com o seu disco de estreia “In The Lonely Hour“.
O britânico volta a aparecer nas listas, agora na categoria ‘Melhor Performance Pop Solo‘, com a balada “Stay With Me“. Entre os nomes está Sia, com o hino “Chandelier“, Pharrel Williams e o hit “Happy“, John Legend, com “All Of Me” e Taylor Swift com “Shake It Off“.
As mesma faixas que levaram Taylor Swift, Sia e Sam Smith a concorrerem na categoria acima, colocaram os cantores em outra lista importantíssima da premiação, a de ‘Gravação do Ano‘. Além deles, a rapper Iggy Azalea aparece na lista com o hit “Fancy” – fruto da parceria com Charli XCX – e Meghan Trainor com a deliciosa “All About That Bass“.
Em ‘Álbum do Ano‘ Beyoncé, como já era esperado, aparece na lista com o seu aclamado álbum visual homônimo. Sam Smith, Ed Sheeran, Pharrel William e Beck também entram na disputa pelo prêmio com seus discos “In The Lonely Hour“, “X“, “G I R L” e “Monring Phase” respectivamente.
