Five Swedes in the Run for American Grammies

Five Swedes are able to win a Grammy next February. WelcheMusic has already reported on Eminem and Rihanna being nominated for Song of the Year. Robyn’s “Dancing on My Own” is nominated for “Best Dance Recording.” She competes against Rihanna’s “Only Girl (In the World)” and Lady Gaga’s “Dance in the Dark.” Two years ago, Robyn lost to Chemical Brothers in the “Best Dance/Electronic Album” category.

The Swedish producers RedOne and Max Martin compete in the “Album of the Year” category. RedOne produced Lady Gaga’s The Fame Monster, while Martin co-produced Katy Perry’s Teenage Dream. The producer and DJ Axwell is nominated for his remix of Temper Trap’s “Sweet Disposition” while the opera singer Ann-Sofie von Otter competes in the Best Classical Vocal Performance category. She has won a Grammy three times before.

Eminem had the most number of nominations – ten – followed by Lady Gaga and Jay-Z with six each. The Grammy will be held in L.A. on Feb.13 2011.

Elle Goulding Revives Classic Elton John Track

We’ve already highlighted that David Bowie’s “Heroes” claims the UK top spot. One might think that there is a shortage of new material as the classic Elton John track “Your Song” is back on the charts. Easily one of the most covered tracks, Ellie Goulding the single is her most successful to date, beating the No.4 peak of “Starry Eyes.” “Your Song” is to be included on the re-release of her debut album Bright Lights.

In an unusual feat, the track has actually climbed 39-3-2 in its third week. One of the key reasons is its inclusion in the Christmas 2010 TV advert for the department store chain John Lewis. The new version was produced by Mumford & Sons’ Ben Lovett.

Originally titled Lights, the re-release of Ellie Goulding’s album will contain six brand-new tracks. To date, five singles has been lifted off the set so far. Originally released in March 2010, the set knocked Lady Gaga’s The Fame off the No.1 spot. Goulding was born in 1986 and made her breakthrough via the BBC Sound of 2010 poll. She also earned the Critics’ Choice Award at the 2010 BRIT Awards. The singer is also the guest vocalist on Tinie Tempah’s “Wonderman.”

Is Lady Gaga Almost Perfect?

Lady Gaga is scheduled to release the new album Born This Way next year. The other day she tweeted “Endless melodies, hooks, + poetry sledge-hammering my skull. It won’t be much longer, its almost perfect. But I (we) don’t want almost.” No, we don’t. Keep to it, Gaga. (@ladygaga)

Her debut album The Fame debuted on the Billboard 200 almost exactly two years ago, on Nov.15 2008. So far it has sold more than 14 million copies around the world. The set is currently sitting at No.25 on the UK album chart, having spent almost 100 weeks on the tally! The set reached No.2 on the Billboard 200 and has spent 107 weeks there. The final single to be lifted off the album was “Paparazzi” from July 2009.

The Demonstration Transforms Lady Gaga Into Heavy Metal

CHART SPOTLIGHT. We have to admit, WelcheMusic is not into heavy metal. And despite the hype around heavy metal act The Demonstration’sLady Gaga’s cover of “Bad Romance,” the genre is still a bit too rough. As MTV News reports, Lady Gaga has actually given a nod to the North Carolina band and tweeted “Death metal with ice dancing + high fashion you get the Monster Ball” recently. The Demonstration is working on a new album, which is still untitled.

Lady Gaga issued “Bad Romance” in October last year. The track preceded her album The Fame Monster and was co-written by RedOne, who also produced the track. Lady Gaga hasn’t officially released any single since “Alejandro” in April.

UPDATE. The Demonstration has been in the studio all weekend tracking vocals. According to the MySpace web-site: “We should be totally done tracking in the next couple weeks and once the mix is done we’ll have new music for yall to bang your fucking heads to. Stretch your neck muscles and get ready for the sickness. We’re workin on getting a new layout done as well.”

Let’s see if The Demonstration makes a cover of “Born This Way As Well.”
