The Grammys are mostly a popularity contest rather than a celebration of artistic achievement. They often nominate and award people, albums, etc. based on sales more than quality. A lot of musicians with major artistic achievements in music haven't received a Grammy or even a nomination, although some of those artists have won only the Lifetime Achievement Award (i.e., Bob Marley, the Who, and Led Zeppelin).
Blue has gotten me thru the most DIFFICULT times of my life, & their music is everliving...And it evolves over & over again,i used to not be able to listen to certain songs w/o sobbing UNCONTROLLABLY.. For instance "Hate Me' granted its a "radio tune" it is SUCH a meaningful song,now I can scream it @ the top of my lungs w/no tears..Its true, you either get Blue October,or you dont AT ALL!
THE MEDIA DON'T LIKE ALL THE TRUTH JUSTIN AND BLUE OCTOBER SING AND SPEAK OF AND YOU KNOW BEYOND THAT THE GREATEST ARTISTS USUALLY ARE OVERLOOKED UNTIL THEY'RE GONE,DON'T KNOW WHY FOR SURE BUT IT SEEMS TO BE THE CASE BUT JUSTINS GOT ABSOLUTELY THE RIGHT VIEWPOINT ABOUT IT ANYHOW,AS THE POINT IS THEIR RELATIONSHIP TO THEIR MUSIC AND THE OTHER BEINGS THAT THEY SHARE THEIR TRUTHS WITH,NOT THE FAME. THATS THE POINT OF ALL THOSE THAT JUST CAN'T TOUCH THE GRACE OF BLUE OCTOBER

umm ya proof that the grammys are a bunch of shit--foiled ,history for sale,argue witha tree,i could go on.plain bullshit. JUSTIN YOUR FANS FUCKIN LOVE YOU-YOU KEEP SINGIN AND WELL KEEP LISTENING
blue october should keep goin, love ther i dont care additude at least there music is helping me and is helping there fans and if they have loyal fans what is a grammy to them
yeah the grammys are a joke, there's only a few actually good bands that recieve grammy's, but most of them are given to people that don't even come close to deserving it.
i dont care about the grammys really. the people who really earn it never get it. I think Blue October should just keep at it and making the music we all know and love. As a crazy Blue october fan, i would be happy with just that :]
i love you guys!!!

The only music I even care about that got a grammy this year was Viva La Vida. Grammys really don't mean shit.

no grammys are just controlled to be mainstream, which blue october is too unique to be completely, but they are amazing.
