what we know so far that Carrie submitted

Song of the Year and Record of the Year, Love Wins


Best Pop Duo/Group Performance: If I Can Dream (From The NBC Elvis All-Star Tribute)

I'm honestly not expecting anything this time around.

 

[simonplay]

^ me either! The worst thing is that she is not going to perform for the third consecutive year... at least that Drinking Alone become a huge hit and they invite Carrie to perform anyway.

 

[Farawayhills]

"Love Wins" obviously means a lot to Carrie. But I'm afraid I can't really see it as Grammy Song or Record of the Year material (but then Grammy predictions are often notoriously wide of the mark)

Carrie only had a small part in the Elvis tribute - but she certainly outshone the two guys who followed her (who even managed to make Blake Shelton look good!)

For me, one of the big disappointments of this era has been that Carrie's co-produced album is probably the best work of her career so far - but so much of the strongest and most interesting material from it (with the exception of the title track) has had relatively little exposure, outside her personal fan following.


As far as the Grammys go, I'm expecting recognition for the Highwomen, and also for Tanya Tucker's first album of mainly new material for seventeen years (Brandi Carlile, who seems deservedly at a career peak at present, was heavily involved in both projects)

 

[Farawayhills]

(correction: Tanya's release did make the eligibility cut off - but the Highwomen's album came out in early September, so would have to wait for the following year)

Hopefully she submitted something more than SB in country. She can submit a non single like Spinning Bottles etc.

agree. The 2019 Grammys were supposed to be Carrie’s big year. Instead she was completely robbed in favor of freaking Kelsea and Kacey etc. it was so depressing.

This year she really only has Southbound or a non single like Spinning Bottles or The Bullet etc. it’s very sad. Umg needs to get more people on that stupid country Grammy committee.

Ever since Grammys changed the rules to small biased committee voting- carrie has gotten screwed.

 

[teesharky]

When will the country submissions leak? Thanks

Yeah , the Grammys going to those committees was the worst thing to happen to them. Now it's just a very small group of people making all the decision instead of the voters. They seem very biased against mainstream music. They're mostly about the small guy without commercial success. It's frustrating as every year the small group has their favorites they champion and someone like Carrie, who critics have always looked down on, is screwed.

 

[adam1995]

Her last two singles have not helped her Grammy chances.

"Cry Pretty" the song and album should have had multiple nominations, but LW and "Southbound" aren't Grammy worthy. The album had far better material for that, but can't change it now.

completely agree. I think the names of the committee voters should be publicized. The secrecy and shadiness of the small group of voters is very suspicious. It’s not a good look for the Grammys at all. That small group can be easily bought and pays for too sadly. There should be more people voting like before.

HITS DAILY DOUBLE - GRAMMY CHEW: RECORD OF THE YEAR

In this installment, we look at the likely nominees for ROTY, as well as a few outliers. We feel it pairs nicely with potato salad.

WILD CARDS

Carrie Underwood , “Love Wins”: This is one Nashville record that may resonate more with Blue State sensibilities than Red, wading as it does into the troubled waters of the gun-control divide. This being heavyweight-champ Underwood, of course, the soaring melody and positive vibes far outweigh the politics.

^ nice to see some people out there respecting LW since a large group of Carrie's fans don't

 

[teesharky]

That makes me happy. It may still get snubbed but it’s nice to see it get love.

 

[Countryfan2448]

They didn't nominate her in 2019 for 2018 success but i hope 2019 success will get her some nominees.

 

[teesharky]

Did Carrie’s country submissions ever leak yet? We only know her all genre submissions.

At Goldderby’s post about Grammy 2020 submissions:

Carrie Underwood
Love Wins: ROTY, SOTY,(Country Solo Perf, Country Song)
If I Can Dream (From The NBC Elvis All-Star Tribute): Pop Duo/Group Perf

I think they submitted Love Wins in Country Solo Performance and Song

 

[teesharky]

Thanks! That’s a better submission choice than Southbound for Grammys as SB is more of a fun party summer radio song than. Critics darling. Lol

from hits

"Carrie Underwood: Another artist who may get a big CMA springboard, particularly if she wins for Entertainer, Underwood has had something of a renaissance of late and gotten big exposure from TV sports syncs. Her approach to hot-button issues on songs like “The Bullet” and “Love Wins” (up for Country Solo Perf and Song) may also stoke warm feelings from Grammy."
