What Song Should Win: "Cut Me Some Slack" by Paul McCartney, Dave Grohl, Krist Novoselic, Pat Smear
It's hard not to create a hit when you have a former Beatle and the Foo Fighters frontman and former Nirvana drummer on board. This song is a perfect example of how artists can collaborate and incorporate their own musiciality to create a truly rocking song. McCartney's vocals are true to his tone but with an edgier quality, and the structure of the song represents Grohl's contribution. The song organically happened after McCartney worked with Grohl on his upcoming Sound City documentary. Apparently this song only took three hours to write and record, according to what Grohl told Spin. True pros.
What Song Will Win: "Doom And Gloom" by The Rolling Stones
The Rolling Stones recently celebrated 50 years in the industry, and "Doom and Gloom" was the perfect way to highlight the iconic sound we know and love from the band, which still resonates with many generations today. The Rolling Stones have been nominated for multiple Grammys throughout the years, and last won in 1995 in the Best Music Video category for "Love Is Strong."
