47th Grammy Predictions: Part 1
予想。

いよいよグラミー賞の発表が迫った。恒例の予想をお送りする。今年のグラミーは2月13日(日曜=日本時間14日午前10時から)ロスアンジェルスのステイプル・センターで行われる。

今年の最大の話題はレイ・チャールズ。おそらく、「レイ・チャールズのグラミー」ということで記憶されることになるだろう。レイ・チャールズ関連作品は10のノミネート。最大9部門まで獲得できる。その他、アッシャー、アリシア・キーズ、カニエ・ウェストなどがどのあたりまで獲得できるか。

予想パート1は、主要4部門とポップで10部門、R&Bとラップで13部門、計27部門。明日は、ジャズ、ゴスペル、その他の部門。

ちなみに、2003年度は47部門で予想し、本命で20部門、対抗で14部門、計34部門(.723)の結果だった。(昨年の予想は2003年2月2日付け、3日付け日記、結果は2月9日、10日付け日記) 今年も本命で4割、対抗で3割の計7割を狙う。
