The 10th Annual Awards Psychic Award Winners

Best Picture - Drama
Winner - The Irishman
Runners Up - Parasite, 1917, Pain & Glory, Portrait of a Lady on Fire
Commentary - Parasite was fantastic, 1917 was impeccably made, Pain and Glory is Almdovar's best film in 20 years, and Portrait of a Lady on Fire is stirring. A great year in cinema indeed. I however, and going to double down on a film that has gotten its fair share of hits. I think personally, that being on Netflix has opened it up to more criticism, because so many people who would not otherwise see this film are trying it out, and it is not for everyone. The Irishman film is for the true Scorsese fans. It is not has energetic as Casino, The Departed, or Goodfellas, but it still beautifully constructs a story in the gangster genre. This time it is slower, it is more contemplative. Scorsese is now older, wiser, and has made a film that takes the time to really reflect on his contribution to the genre. A lot of people have not liked it for that very reason. It is long, and it is not necessarily fast-paced. But it is a magnum opus for one of our greatest directors. Not only for him, but for his amazing cast. Folks like DeNiro, Pacino, Pesci, Keitel, amazing actors that represent the best of the last generation of American art, all have nothing to prove, and yet manage to once again prove just how good they are. Even with the de-aging not entirely working, it is proof that even as Scorsese nears the end of his long career, even has he begins to settle into his old favorites, and reflect, he still believes in the power of cinema, and is still striving to push it to new frontiers. We need more Martin Scorseses in our would, and until then, we need to respect and celebrate the real one, who continues to make film masterpieces. The Irishman is no exception.

Best Picture - Comedy/Musical
Winner - Once Upon a Time in Hollywood
Runners Up - The Farewell, Booksmart, and Dolemite is My Name
Commentary - Can you make a more perfect film? I'm sure that statement alone will cause an uproar, but I don't care. I have seen Once Upon a Time in Hollywood five times, and no matter how many times I watch it, I feel like it is not enough. I have respected Quentin Tarantino for a long time. He is a brilliant film maker, whose films will forever remain cultural staples in our society. But this film? This film is his masterpiece. It is a lot slower than many of his previous pieces, which is a apparently a theme this year. He saves his normal bursts of epic violence for his ending. He slowly builds up his story, gently nudging us from scene to scene with effortlessness, building us to a shocking, Tarantino-esque finale. At its core, this film is about an actor, and his stunt double, who are facing the end of their careers. As the Golden Age of Hollywood ends, they find themselves at a crossroads, worrying and wondering what comes next. That is the core story, but is a microcosm of a greater revisionist history. The Golden Age of Hollywood was a veneer, a shiny star to show on the big screen. The 1970's came along and challenged that veneer with gritty, independent films that shook up the most prolific, and arguably, greatest, art form of our time. Tarantino brilliantly conveys this change, butted up against his revisionist history of the Manson murders. The loss of innocence on one had, is countered by the prevention of innocence on the other. All of this combined with the heartbreak, humor, sadness, effervescence, and dreamy fantasy of this winding, intertwined story of love and loss make you swoon, make you wish that it was longer (and it is already two and a half hours), and make you realize just how marvelous cinema can be, when put in the hands of a modern master. It is a crowning achievement for the ages.

Best Picture - Sci-Fi/Fantasy/Horror/Comic-Book
Winner - Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker
Runners Up - Ad Astra, Joker, and Us
Commentary - So Ad Astra was good, but slow. Us proves Get Out was not a fluke, and Joker was controversial, but a great take on the comic book genre. So this year, instead of those great films, I am choosing the final Star Wars film. I will go ahead and admit a few things, in the hopes that it silences the haters/trolls before they start. First, the exposition first hour was roughly edited and at the same time, too much narrative. The return of Emperor Palpatine made sense, but felt abrupt, and no offense to Ian McDiarmid, but he has overacted every scene he has ever played in a Star Wars film. So now you must be wondering: how? How is it the winner this year? Let me explain. First, I think that the second half of the film was much better, connected the characters, and ended up being a fitting conclusion to the saga. The second reason is a bit more complicated, so give me a few minutes to explain, and hopefully it will make sense by the end. The definition of art is complicated, and has been argued indefinitely for centuries. In high school, I studied the great argument between T.S. Elliot and C.S. Lewis, arguably two of the greatest writers of all time. The definition that I have landed on recently is the one that Viola Davis gave when she presented the Cecile B. DeMille award to her mentor, friend, and idol Meryl Streep, a few years ago. When she was describing Meryl, she said this: "Her artistry reminds us of the impact of what it means to be an artist, which is to make us feel less alone". For 42 years, the Star Wars saga, the good films, and bad ones, have always accomplished that goal. For the freaks and geeks of the world, the misunderstood and the mistreated, Star Wars has been a refuge. A beautiful fantasy world to escape to, where you can feel like you belong. During the last half of The Rise of Skywalker, an old friend reminds us, and then shows us, that we are never truly alone. That despite the attempts to separate us, what unites us is always stronger. Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker is far from a perfect film. But for those of us, spread across three generations of moviegoers, who have loved this film series, this fandom, and this world that has shaped our entire lives, this film is everything we could have asked for, and more. I have often said that, in our divided times, we find our common humanity in art. No matter who you are, or where you come from, who you love, or what you believe, there is a place for you in the Star Wars universe. So thank you. Thank you to George Lucas, J.J. Abrams, Rian Johnson (not kidding), Kathleen Kennedy, and the amazing members of the cast and crew for the last 42 years, for bringing the kid whose parents always fought and the kid who never felt like he belonged, joy and excitement, and for making him believe that no matter what, he did belong in this world. For the last almost 30 years, a Star Wars poster has hung on my bedroom wall, and Star Wars Legos, action figures, and DVDs have populated by bonus room. Star Wars will always be a part of our culture and zeitgeist, and while the Skywalker saga is over (supposedly), there are plenty of amazing stories to tell in this universe, and personally I can't wait. Because no matter what happens, you can always go back and visit a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away. Finally, and most importantly, to all of the Star Wars fans out there, may the force be with you, always.

Best Picture - Animated

Winner - Toy Story 4
Runners Up - I Lost My Body and Missing Link
Commentary - In case you haven't gotten the message, I am a sucker for nostalgia. Toy Story 4 was pure nostalgia. I really thought that a fourth entry would ruin a beautiful trilogy, and while I think it is the weakest of the bunch, that still means it is stronger than most films released this year. There is just something special about visit old friends that makes these trips back to Toy Story so memorable. It doesn't hurt that it has an amazing voice cast, continually pushes the technical boundaries of animation, and it is a film that is brilliant written to appeal to kids, and to have an underlying message about growing up that undeniable hits adults straight in the heart. Toy Story 4 did all of those things, and proved that this story is timeless. 

Best Picture - Documentary
Winner - Apollo 11
Runners Up - American Factory, For Sama, and One Child Nation
Commentary - One of the biggest snubs of the Oscar nominations was the exclusion of Apollo 11 from the Best Documentary Feature lineup. As a librarian, I spent my entire summer dealing with space stuff, and in the midst of that, I got to see this amazing documentary. Todd Douglas Miller does a fantastic job reconstructing this incredible story about true American heroes who accomplished the impossible. This film is one of the best of the year, and should have been in the Oscars top five. That being said, I also liked American Factory, For Sama, and One Child Nation. I am rooting for For Sama and American Factory to win at the Oscars.

Best Actor - Drama
Winner - Antonio Banderas "Pain & Glory"
Runners Up - Adam Driver "Marriage Story", Joaquin Phoenix "Joker", and George MacKay "1917"
Commentary - All of this talk about Driver vs. Phoenix (both of whom are fantastic actors in great roles), but I sitting her wondering how voters don't choose Antonio Banderas instead. Banderas has had a long career of blockbusters, but in recent years, we have seen him try on indies and films in his native language, and the results have been fantastic. Pain & Glory is his crowning achievement as an actor, and his touching, graceful, and emotional performance, helps the fantastic Pedro Almodovar retell his own story, pain and glory included. I hope we continue to see these types of performances from Banderas, because it turns out that when given the right material, he can showcase an amazing array of talents as an actor that are incredible to watch.

Best Actress - Drama
Winner - Renee Zellweger "Judy"
Runners Up - Scarlett Johansson "Marriage Story", Charlize Theron "Bombshell", Lupita Nyong’o “Us”
Commentary - It is so nice to see Renee Zellweger back. I know that she has gone through a lot in the last several years, and has not appeared on screen in a long time. But she was one of the rising stars of the early part of the millennium, and just knocked role after role out of the park. Well whatever she went through, she has decided to return to the screen, and what a triumphant return. Judy, as a whole, is not the best film, but Zellweger is breathtaking in this role. She is Judy Garland. Garland herself never won an Oscar, and while we cannot re-write history, a win for Renee for this role, would serve as a nice reminder of not only Zellweger's amazing talent, but Judy's as well.

Best Actor - Comedy/Musical
Winner - Eddie Murphy "Dolemite is My Name"
Runners Up - Leonardo DiCaprio "Once Upon a Time in Hollywood" and Adam Sandler "Uncut Gems"
Commentary - Eddie Murphy is one of those actors who has picked his fair share of crappy roles over the years, but when he lands on a great role, he knocks it out of the park. That is because Murphy is an amazing talent, even if it isn't always reflected on screen. Dolemite is My Name is one of those roles. It is everything we love about Eddie Murphy. It is a brash, funny, showy role that showcases his comedic talent. It is also a layered performance that allows Murphy range to show his depth, and his emotional talent as a true actor. He is a legend because he is one of the best. Dolemite proves that perfectly.

Best Actress Comedy/Musical
Winner - Beanie Feldstein “Booksmart” and Kaitlyn Dever “Booksmart”
Runners Up - Awkwafina "The Farewell" and Emma Thompson "Late Night"
Commentary - This was a really tough race. Awkwafina proved her chops, an it is one of my favorite performances of the year. But in the end, I had to show some love for Olivia Wilde's amazing directorial debut Booksmart. What a better way to reward it that to give an award to its dynamic duo leads. Feldstein and Dever perfectly capture the humor, pain, and anxiety of trying new things, taking a chance, and most importantly growing up. These two remarkable young talents have such bright futures ahead of them, heck both of them have already had great roles in their short careers. I can't wait to see what they do next.

Best Director
Winner - (TIE) Martin Scorsese "The Irishman" and Quentin Tarantino "Once Upon a Time in Hollywood"
Runners Up - Pedro Almodovar "Pain & Glory", Bong Joon-ho "Parasite", Sam Mendes "1917", Lulu Wang "The Farewell", and Olivia Wilde "Booksmart"
Commentary - See Best Picture - Drama and Best Picture - Comedy/Musical to see why. Let's just say I could not pick between the two.

Best Supporting Actor
Winner - Brad Pitt "Once Upon a Time in Hollywood"
Runners Up - Song Kang Ho "Parasite" and Joe Pesci "The Irishman"
Commentary - From the second Cliff Booth strides into frame in Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, you are hooked. Brad Pitt just plays this role with ease. He brings so much humor and shine to Tarantino's masterpiece. Pitt is one of the last remaining true movie stars left on the planet. He doesn't do Marvel films, or too many sequels. He just picks great role after great role, and his presence alone, his magnetism on screen is just so powerful, people flock to witness every time. Brad Pitt has never won an acting Oscar, and fingers crossed that that ends in a few weeks.

Best Supporting Actress
Winner - (TIE) Jennifer Lopez "Hustlers" and Zhao Shuzhen "The Farewell"
Runners Up - Da'Vine Joy Randolph "Dolemite is My Name" and Margot Robbie "Bombshell" and "Once Upon a Time in Hollywood"
Commentary - I love Kathy Bates as much as anyone else, but that fact that Oscar voters put her in that fifth slot instead of these two amazing women is just wrong. These two fantastic performances were both so great, I could not pick just one. Jennifer Lopez proves that her star power can be put to good. Her role as Ramona may be supporting, but she steals every scene she is in. From the powerful emotional scenes, to the brilliant combination of fear and bravery, to the dynamic magnetism she brings to every scene, prove Lopez is not just a star, but a true actress. Zhao Shuzhen is pitch-perfect in The Farewell. Everyone has a grandmother that they loved, and Shuzhen feels like she is yours as well as Awkwafina's. She is so funny, fierce, and loving that you can't help but get swept up in wanting to protect Nai Nai as much as her family does. I hope we see more of Shuzhen in the future.

Best Ensemble
Winner - Parasite
Runners Up - The Irishman, The Farewell, Hustlers, and Once Upon a Time in Hollywood
Commentary - Whatever happens with Best Picture at the Oscars, the award I was most happy to see Parasite win was the SAG ensemble. Obviously the film is well-written and directed, but for me, it is the cast that I just thought was the best part of this excellent film. They were funny, perfectly played their roles, and captured the humor and horror of Bong Joon Ho's unique vision.

Best Voice Acting/Motion Capture Performance
Winner - (TIE) Tim Allen and Tom Hanks "Toy Story 4"
Runners Up - Zach Galifianakis "Missing Link" and Tony Hale "Toy Story 4"
Commentary - For the last 25 years, Toy Story has been a part of my life. At its center is the rivalry/friendship of our beloved Woody and Buzz. Just in case they don't make a Toy Story 5, I did not want to leave this year without recognizing the two men who made these characters possible. Tim Allen and Tom Hanks have been voicing these roles, and their charisma, emotion, and humor have given this beautiful film franchise its heart and soul. They deserve recognition.

Best Adapted Screenplay
Winner - Steve Zaillian "The Irishman"
Runners Up - Greta Gerwig "Little Women" and Taika Wahiti "Jojo Rabbit"
Commentary - Zaillian is not getting enough credit, in my opinion, for penning this beautiful, haunting, carefully constructed saga. For my money, what he accomplished with this script is the most impressive of the bunch.

Best Original Screenplay
Winner - Lulu Wang "The Farewell"
Runners Up - Pedro Almodovar "Pain & Glory" and Quentin Tarantino "Once Upon a Time in Commentary - I have a grandmother who, already suffering from dementia, has been diagnosed with metastatic melanoma. Of course, we are not telling her, because she would not understand even if we did. So maybe The Farewell hits too close to home. I did cry, like blubbering like a baby cry, twice during the film. Or maybe it is because first time director Lulu Wang has crafted such an emotionally effective story. One one hand, The Farewell is a unique look into Chinese culture, and the way they handle death and sickness. On the other hand, it is a universal tale of love, loss, and family. Wang balances those two poles perfectly, educating us on one hand, and making us connect to the story on another. It is a brilliant script, and an amazing story that deserved to be told.

Best Cinematography
Winner - Roger Deakins "1917"
Runners Up - Robert Richardson "Once Upon a Time in Hollywood" and Claire Mathon "Portrait of a Lady on Fire"
Commentary - Duh. Deakins is a master, and his work in the excellent 1917 is easily the best of the bunch, by a mile.

Best Visual Effects
Winner - Avengers: Endgame
Runners Up - The Lion King and Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker
Commentary - The final sequence of Avengers: Endgame earned this category in a walk.

Worst Film of the Year
Loser - Cats
Runners Up - X-Men: Dark Phoenix and Hellboy
Commentary - I never particularly like Cats as a stage musical, but when I saw the crew members and cast members that were going to be involved, my hopes rose that maybe they would make it something worth seeing. How did it go so wrong? Obviously some of the visual effects choices were horrible (to the point that the studio re-released it with fixes). But there was so much more. The Story was awful, and half the time made no sense, the performances, in general, were not good, even when good actors were involved, and it was just an overall hot mess. Easily the worst of the year.

2020 Grammy Predictions: General Field

Album of the Year
Will Win - Lizzo "Cuz I Love You"
Could Win - Billie Eilish "when we fall asleep, where do we go?"
Should Win - Lizzo "Cuz I Love You"
Commentary - There have been exceptions over the years, but often this award either goes to an older, veteran, or it goes to a younger star that has an old school sound. This makes me think that the funky, new age pop sound of Billie Eilish might not be as popular as many pundits are predicting. Instead, I am thinking that Lizzo might be the beneficiary of this issue. Lizzo has so many different styles on her album, but much of it has an old-school funk, R&B, and jazz vibe that might appeal to the broadest range of voters. I am probably wrong, but beyond her and Eilish, I don't know who would emerge.

Record of the Year
Will Win - Lizzo "Truth Hurts"
Could Win - Lil Nas X feat. Billy Ray Cyrus "Old Town Road" and Billie Eilish "Bad Guy"
Should Win - Lizzo "Truth Hurts"
Commentary - Does the biggest hit of the year, Old Town Road, win, over better songs? Will Billie Eilish reign supreme over the whole thing? Will Lizzo weep? Will Eilish? These are the questions I don't know, but for my money, Lizzo might just be the surprise that keeps on surprising all night.

Song of the Year
Will Win - Truth Hurts (Lizzo)
Could Win - Bad Guy (Billie Eilish) or Bring My Flowers Now (Tanya Tucker) or Lover (Taylor Swift)
Should Win - Truth Hurts or Bring My Flowers
Commentary - I am predicting a Lizzo sweep of the top three categories, knowing full and well that it could be an Eilish sweep, or be one of those years where everything is all mixed up. I would not bet against Swift, who is just so popular, or Tanya Tucker. Kacey Musgraves proved last year that Country voters will rally behind their favorites and Tucker is the only real legend in the lineup this year, and the only Country general field nominee.

Best New Artist
Will Win - Billie Eilish
Could Win - Lizzo
Should Win - Lizzo
Commentary - I am predicting Eilish in one category. I know his seems counter intuitive, but I could see them throwing her a bone, while Lizzo takes the top prizes.

2020 Grammy Predictions: Pop

Best Pop Solo Performance
Will Win - Billie Eilish "Bad Guy"
Could Win - Lizzo "Truth Hurts" or Ariana Grande "7 Rings"
Should Win - Lizzo "Truth Hurts" or Taylor Swift "You Need to Calm Down"
Commentary - Lizzo or Swift could surprise, but the Billie Eilish is the hot thing in Pop right now, and Lizzo is probably seen more in the Urban Contemporary/R&B field than Pop. Watch out for Ariana Grande, who could surprise.

Best Pop Duo/Group Performance
Will Win - Lil Nas X feat. Billy Ray Cyrus "Old Town Road"
Could Win - Post Malone feat. Swae Lee "Sunflower"
Should Win - Jonas Brothers "Sucker"
Commentary - God this category is just horrible. I guess the infamous Old Town Road will win, and if not it is probably the dreadful Post Malone. I am actually kind of rooting for the Jonas Brothers, their album was good, and the song was enjoyable.

Best Pop Vocal Album
Will Win - Billie Eilish "when we all fall asleep, where do we go?"
Could Win - Ariana Grande "thank u, next"
Should Win - Billie Eilish "when we all fall asleep, where do we go?"
Commentary - Eilish and Grande are both nominated for Album of the Year. I expect Eilish, who has overall more support across the board, to take the prize.

Best Traditional Pop Vocal Album
Will Win - Michael Buble "Love"
Could Win - Barbra Streisand "Walls"
Should Win - Barbra Streisand "Walls"
Commentary - Three guys, Willie Nelson, Tony Bennett, and Michael Buble have dominated this category in the last decade. Buble has won this category four times. I expect him to win a fifth.

2020 Grammy Predictions: Rock/Alternative

Best Rock Performance
Will Win - Gary Clark Jr. "This Land"
Could Win - Brittany Howard "History Repeats"
Should Win - Brittany Howard "History Repeats"
Commentary - Gary Clark Jr. has a lot of buzz this year, and has more total nominations (5) versus Brittany Howard's 3. I think that it is between those two, and don't discount Howard, who won a Grammy with Alabama Shakes. But this is Clark's to lose.

Best Rock Song
Will Win - Harmony Hall (Vampire Weekend)
Could Win - History Repeats (Brittany Howard) and This Land (Gary Clark Jr.)
Should Win - History Repeats (Brittany Howard)
Commentary - So in some ways, this is the same situation as performance, but this time you have Vampire Weekend, who got an Album of the Year nomination. I think they have a higher profile, and will take this one.

Best Rock Album
Will Win - The Cranberries "The End"
Could Win - Cage the Elephant "Social Cues"
Should Win - The Cranberries "The End"
Commentary - Cage the Elephant is the previous Grammy winner in this category, and is probably out front with many voters. I am betting on the nostalgia and the possibility of a posthumous honor and picking The Cranberries.

Best Alternative Music Album
Will Win - Bon Iver "I,I"
Could Win - Vampire Weekend "Father of the Bride"
Should Win - Vampire Weekend "Father of the Bride"
Commentary - Everyone is picking Vampire Weekend, who should win. But Bon Iver is a Grammy favorite, got a lot of surprise nominations. Both are nominated in Album of the Year, but Bon Iver also made it into Record of the Year. I just get the feeling that he is stronger than many thing.

2020 Grammy Predictions: Rap

Best Rap Performance
Will Win - Nipsey Hussle feat. Roddy Rich and Hit-Boy "Racks in the Middle"
Could Win - J. Cole "Middle Child"
Should Win - Nipsey Hussle feat. Roddy Rich and Hit-Boy "Racks in the Middle"

Commentary - It is such a shame that Nipsey Hussle will not be alive to see himself win a well-deserved Grammy Award. This is the perfect way to honor a musician who gave so much back to his people and his community, and created such powerful music along the way. This will be a great tribute to this artist taken from us too soon. 

Best Rap/Sung Collaboration

Will Win - DJ Khaled feat. Nipsey Hussle and John Legend "Higher" 

Could Win - Lil Nas X "Panini"

Should Win - DJ Khaled feat. Nipsey Hussle and John Legend "Higher" 

Commentary - See Rap Performance

Best Rap Song

Will Win - Racks in the Middle (Nipsey Hussle feat. Roddy Rich and Hit-Boy)

Could Win - A Lot (21 Savage and J. Cole)

Should Win - Racks in the Middle (Nipsey Hussle feat. Roddy Rich and Hit-Boy)

Could Win - I'm predicting a sweep. 

Best Rap Album

Will Win - Tyler the Creator "Igor"

Could Win - 21 Savage "I Am > I Was" 

Should Win - Tyler the Creator "Igor"

Commentary - While 21 Savage has more nods, I think the critical acclaim of Igor will put Tyler the Creator over the top.

2020 Grammy Predictions: R&B

Best R&B Performance
Will Win - H.E.R. feat. Bryson Tiller "Could've Been"
Could Win - Lizzo feat. Gucci Mane "Exactly How I Feel"
Should Win - Lizzo feat. Gucci Mane "Exactly How I Feel"
Commentary - Both H.E.R. and Lizzo are so popular, each scoring in the General categories as well. Lizzo has several other chances to win without H.E.R. in the mix. I think that H.E.R. is not going to walk away empty handed, and this is good place to reward her.

Best Traditional R&B Performance
Will Win - Lizzo "Jerome"
Could Win - PJ Morton feat. Jazmine Sullivan "Built for Love" or India.Arie "Steady Love"
Should Win - Lizzo "Jerome"
Commentary - While Jerome does have an old school feel, there is nothing traditional about Lizzo. She has the most nominations of the bunch, and is the biggest current star. If voters though are looking for more traditional artists to reward, look of Indie.Arie or the combination of PJ Morton and Jazmine Sullivan.

Best R&B Song
Will Win - Could've Been (H.E.R. feat. Bryson Tiller)
Could Win - Roll Some Mo (Lucky Daye)
Should Win - Could've Been (H.E.R. feat. Bryson Tiller)
Commentary - No matter what happens in R&B Performance, there is a good chance that H.E.R. still wins another Grammy. None of the other nominee have the star power or Grammy love that she has.

Best R&B Album
Will Win - Anderson. Paak "Ventura"
Could Win - Ella Mai "Ella Mai"
Should Win - Anderson .Paak "Ventura"
Commentary - Both Anderson .Paak and Ella Mai won Grammys last year in performance/song categories. I think Paak, who had more nominations overall, and managed to get into Best New Artist a few years ago, will win in a close one.

Best Urban Contemporary Album
Will Win - Lizzo "Cuz I Love You"
Could Win - Jessie Reyez "Being Human in Public"
Should Win - Lizzo "Cuz I Love You"
Commentary - This should be an easy one for Lizzo, as she is the only one that is nominated for Album of the Year, and the most recognizable of the bunch.

2020 Grammy Predictions: Country

Best Country Solo Performance
Will Win - Tanya Tucker "Bring My Flowers Now"
Could Win - Blake Shelton "God's Country"
Should Win - Tanya Tucker "Bring My Flowers Now"
Commentary - Easily the best of the bunch, Tucker, after years in the music industry, is set to win her first Grammy Awards. This is the only country song to cross into the general field categories, and she has been getting nothing but rave reviews and positive buzz. I think she does very well next week.

Best Country Duo/Group Performance
Will Win - Dan + Shay "Speechless"
Could Win - Maren Morris feat. Brandi Carlile "Common"
Should Win - Maren Morris feat. Brandi Carlile "Common"
Commentary - The star power combination of Morris and Carlile might be strong enough to upset Dan + Shay, who won this category last year, and as we know, Grammy voters tend to let goodwill linger from year to year.

Best Country Song
Will Win - Bring My Flowers Now (Tanya Tucker)
Could Win - Speechless (Dan + Shay)
Should Win - Bring My Flowers Now (Tanya Tucker)
Commentary - See Country Solo Performance

Best Country Album
Will Win - Tanya Tucker "While I'm Livin'"
Could Win - Eric Church "Desperate Man"
Should Win - Tanya Tucker "While I'm Livin'"
Commentary - See Country Solo Performance

2020 Grammy Predictions: Best Musical Theater Album, Comedy Album, and Spoken Word Album

Best Musical Theater Album
Will Win - Hadestown
Could Win - Moulin Rouge! or Harry Potter and the Cursed Child
Should Win - Harry Potter and the Cursed Child
Commentary - Usually the winner is the previous year's Tony Award winner for Musical or Musical Revival. So naturally you would assume Hadestown is a shoo-in. But we also have the winner for Best Play, and its Harry Potter, and the new hit musical Moulin Rouge! which could win big at this year's Tonys. It may not be a slam dunk.

Best Comedy Album
Will Win - Dave Chappelle "Sticks and Stones"
Could Win - Ellen DeGeneres "Relatable"
Should Win - Chappelle or DeGeneres"
Commentary - I think that this is between Chappelle and DeGeneres. Chappelle has won this twice in a row, and when they like you at the Grammys, they do tend to continue to reward you. DeGeneres is an awards magnet, who has not been nominated in 7 years, and has never won this award. Plus she just got huge exposure at the Globes. She might be closing in on her first Grammy Award.

Best Spoken Word Album
Will Win - Michelle Obama "Becoming"
Could Win - Various Artists "Beastie Boys Book" or John Waters "Mr. Know it All"
Should Win - Michelle Obama "Becoming"
Commentary - I really can't see anyone other than Michelle Obama, former first lady, winning this award. The book is one of the bestselling books in recent memory, she is beloved, and is the biggest name on the ballot.

2020 Grammy Predictions: Best Music Video, Music Film, and Visual Media Categories

Best Music Video
Will Win - Lil Nas X feat. Billy Ray Cyrus "Old Town Road"
Could Win - Gary Clark Jr. "This Land"
Should Win - Gary Clark Jr. "This Land"
Commentary- If voters are actually paying attention to the quality of the video, then Gary Clark Jr. should easily win here, and he could. But I think voters are going to use this as another way to reward Old Town Road, one of the biggest music hits of the year.

Best Music Film
Will Win - Beyonce "Homecoming"
Could Win - David Crosby "Remember My Name" or Birth of Cool
Should Win - Homecoming
Commentary - Beyonce is still popular with voters, scoring nods for The Gift in top categories. Expect her Homecoming to do very well here.

Best Compilation Soundtrack for Visual Media
Will Win - A Star is Born
Could Win - Rocketman or The Lion King
Should Win - A Star is Born
Commentary - It has been so long since A Star is Born was in the awards conversation, but its music was fantastic, and should win here. Watch out for Rocketman, as Elton John and Taron Egerton just won Globes, and are on voters minds, and for The Lion King, with Jon Favreau and Hans Zimmer's names attached as producer credits.

Best Score Soundtrack for Visual Media
Will Win - Hildur Guonadottir "Chernobyl"
Could Win - Really any of them
Should Win - Ramin Djawadi "Game of Thrones"
Commentary - Love or hate the last season of Game of Thrones, I think Djawadi should win here. But I think that Hildur Guonadottir, who won the Emmy for this, and is out front for the Oscar for score, is going to use her new found celebrity to be Game Of Thrones, and the other three albums that were created by beloved legends.

Best Song Written for Visual Media
Will Win - Beyonce "Spirit"
Could Win - Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper "I'll Never Love Again", Dolly Parton "Girl in the Movies"
Should Win -  Dolly Parton "Girl in the Movies"
Commentary - Everyone is predicting the Shallow followup to win here, which is probably will. Instead, I am going with Spirit, which got love in other categories.

The Oscar Narrative: Oscar Nominations - Reactions

Before I dive in, I want to go ahead and say this: I am so happy that after this year, the calendar is moving back to the end of February. This shortened season was a mess. It as rushed, and when you have four films with 10+ nominations, it shows that in the shortened season, voters coalesced around a cluster of films and found little room to spread the love. That being said, Oscar nominations this year, like every year, are a mix of great moments and egregious snubs.

So now...let's dive in! I am so mad that I pulled out Ford v Ferrari at the last minute. Without an acting, screenplay or directing nomination, it is hard to get a Best Picture nod. Although War Horse did it, so its not a first, just unusual. Otherwise, the eight films that dominated the categories, and we're expected. The Best Director category featured no major surprises. I had stuck with the DGA five, but I'm not shocked that Todd Phillips replaced Taika Waititi. I know that people are upset that a woman was not nominated for Best Director. I would have included Lulu Wang and maybe even Olivia Wilde in my ballot had I been voting. But I am also frustrated that for so many of these upset people, they are really more upset that it wasn't Greta Gerwig. They are all making it as if it is about women directors as a whole, but I get the feeling that even if a female director had been included, if it wasn't Greta, people would still be upset. For the record, I like Gerwig, and her work this year. I also like Wang, Wilde, Celine Sciamma, Lorene Scafaria, and others, and I think that the conversation needs to include more women, and make sure that its not just one or two, but all of them that are worthy of being recognized.

In terms of acting, there were some nice nominations. After decades in this industry, great veterans like Antonio Banderas, Scarlett Johansson, and Jonathan Pryce earned their first nominations, while being joined a new generation of talented newcomers like Florence Pugh and Cynthia Erivo. But the almost lazy nominations of Anthony Hopkins and Kathy Bates (they are both amazing legends, and give good performances, so that is my disclaimer), instead of bolder choices like the cast of Parasite, Jennifer Lopez, the cast of The Farewell, Dolemite is My Name and others, that would have also added some diversity to the lineup, feels like it is either a victim of the shortened timeline (people just voted for who they know from the past), or the Academy membership has taken a big step back after several years of really diverse, well-rounded nominations lists. Either way, I think the four front runners are set, and unless a huge surprise comes, I think that we are in for a pretty predictable Oscar night for these four awards.

The other major victim of this shortened season was variety across the techs. As I said before, we have four films with 10+ nominations. All of these voters coalesced around the same set of 8-10 films across all of these categories. Not that they are necessarily undeserving. It's just that in the years with more time for voting, and not such a rushed season, voters seem to have more daring choices, or at least more variety in their votes. When there is little time to get through all of the screeners (tell me about it), you tend to triage the contenders based on buzz. That means that smaller films, and films with less buzz probably did not get seen by enough people, as they would have in the past. All of that being said, there are some amazing nominees this year, for some incredible films, and while the Academy still has a long way to go, it is so important to remember that they are still a product of the industry, and that they cannot single-handedly fix the diversity issues. That being said, they missed out on some real opportunities to break the mold. I will continue to discuss all of these categories later, as the race continues to unfold. For now, we will have to do what we always have to do: wait and see what happens...
