"The Unforgiven III" is EASILY the worst song on that whole album. How is it that this song gets picked? I hate the Grammy's!!!

Exactly - keep the Obama comments to the Obama threads.

I agree that Unforgiven III is the worst song on DM - every other song is pure awesomeness!!!!!!! LOL on the TUll comment Manny!!!!!!

I would LOVE to see AC/DC wing best hard rock album, but considering the some of grammy voters are the same people who do the rock and roll hall of fame, it won't happen.

AC/DC deserves to win best hard rock performance. The should be up for album of year considering the rest of the crap that was nominated.

Best metal performance has at lease 3 awesome songs up - Megadeth, Slayer and Priest!!!!!!

Probably my least favorite song on Edngame, but still an AWESOME song!!!! And SLAYER!!!!!!!!!!! Spread a little hate worldwide!!!!!!!!!

They make up for it by shoving the metal award presentations on the non-televised portion of the show Wink
