ABBA does not need a Grammy to cement their legendary status, but since the Academy included them in the nominees for Record of the Year - my vote goes to them, as a reward for ALL ALL ALL the beautiful records they have given to humankind and ALL ALL ALL the joy those songs have brought to the lives of multiple generations already.
Actually, it's a toss up between their record and the record of this year's most nominated artist, newcomer Jon Batiste, whose Freedom has such a positive vibe and is so distinctive, that it deserves this award.
Although many of this year's nominees are big hits in America, they are not big hits in my personal countdown - just showing the IMMENSE age gap already showing between what the kids now listen to - and what the OLDER generation is listening to - when it comes to new music. More on that in another article.
For now, let us join in the excitement of the Grammys 2022 and find out who the Academy votes for for ROTY.
