Cinco de Grammy

Grammy nominations were announced today, and even though no one seems to be counting him among the top nominations, John Mayer garnered five nods for his work in the past year. He's up for the following

* Album of the Year - Continuum
* Best Male Pop Vocal - "Waiting on the World to Change"
* Best Pop Vocal Album - Continuum
* Best Solo Rock Performance - "Route 66" (featured in Cars)
* Best Rock Album - Try!

Also getting a handful of nods was Justin Timberlake. Unfortunately, none of them were for Best Clean-the-House Album. Other great bands that got a nomination or two were Keane, Coldplay and Sarah McLachlan for Wintersong. You can check out the full list of nominee here. Come February 11, I'll be hoping to see John taking home some trophies - and looking less like Marc Anthony.

Also, the Dixie Chicks got several nominations for the song "Not Ready to Make Nice" and the album Taking the Long Way. I can't wait to hear Natalie Maines' acceptance speech - that album rocks.
