Talk:Grammy Award for Best New Artist

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The current format matches all the (many) other Grammy pages, and also complies with the Manual of Style guideline that year links should not be misleading. [[1972]] should lead to the article on 1972, not ever to "Grammy Awards of 1972"-- sannse (talk) 23:15, 13 January 2006 (UTC)




"One of the worst hits made by the curse was to pop-goth band Evanescence when after winning the award two of the three original members left, the lead singers relationship broke up, the lead singer was sexually assulted, the lead singer was sued, the new lead guitarist suffered a stroke and the album suffered a delay from the originally planned release date of January 2004 to October 2006"

Um.. what? Is this uncited information relevant to the main topic of the article? *g* --213.42.2.26 11:46, 26 June 2006 (UTC)

Toni Braxton has repeated her initial success? Poor example there.

This page should also discuss or explain the definition of NEW for this award (not previously awarded a Grammy, never recorded before, or what does new mean?). XB77 —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.106.26.73 (talk) 16:51, 12 February 2008 (UTC)

LeAnn Rimes is listed as being the first country artist to win the award, even though Bobbie Gentry, a female country artist, won back in 1968? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 134.215.218.75 (talk) 07:41, 13 April 2008 (UTC)

This error stood out, so I corrected it. Bobbie Gentry was indeed the first country artist to win Best New Artist. Will she ever get the respect she deserves? Gentry is a helluva lot better than this current crop of country crooners peddling their godawful "new country" pap. Kinkyturnip (talk) 21:33, 16 May 2008 (UTC)
