Taylor Swift could make Grammy history by winning Album of Year

[ad_1]

Will Taylor Swift make history by becoming the first singer to win Album of the Year four times? Will she appear?

The “Midnights” artist is nominated for six Grammy Awards on CBS’ Sunday show. Frank Sinatra, Stevie Wonder, Paul Simon and Taylor Swift each won Album of the Year three times. It was the first time Sinatra had won the award two years in a row, and Wonder had won all three awards in four years.

Sherban Guenaire, John Haynes and Tom Coyne are the three engineers who won Album of the Year four times for their work on albums by Swift, Adele and Bruno Mars. When Swift won the award for “Folklore,” she thanked Genia in her acceptance speech. Since he is nominated as part of the “Midnight” team, Swift’s win could increase her total number of Album of the Year awards to five.

Swift has won 12 Grammy Awards. She has been nominated 52 times so far, including her six awards of the year.

Swift performs at the Grammys every year and wins Album of the Year, so fans can’t wait to see if she performs the song “Midnight,” or perhaps a vault version of “Speak Now (Taylor’s Version).” I’ll be looking forward to seeing if they play the track. Take a look back at “1989 (Taylor Edition)” Swift’s past acceptance speeches and performances below.

“Fearless”, “1989” and “Folklore” win the Album of the Year Award

Swift is the only female artist to win Album of the Year three times for her second, fifth, and eighth albums. Her acceptance speech is below:

2010 Winner for “Fearless”: “Thank you so much! This is the album of the year! Oh my god! Thank you so much. I hope you know how much this means to me, to my producer Nathan, and to all of our musicians.” “To be seen on this stage, to be able to bring this back to Nashville. Our family is going wild in the living room. My dad and brother are losing their minds in the living room right now. This is for my dad. “Thank you for always telling me that I could do whatever I wanted in life. And mom, you are my best friend. And this is the story of all of us. At 80, I hope we can do this.” “We tell our grandchildren the same story over and over and they get so frustrated with us. This is the story we’ll tell over and over again. 2010.

You’ll know they were people who loved you, and it would be the best feeling in the world. Thank you for this moment.”

2021 “Folklore” Winner: “Oh my goodness! I want to thank all my collaborators on stage. I want to thank Sherban Guenea. I want to thank Justin Vernon.

You all met us in this imaginary world that we created, and words cannot express how honored we will be for this forever. thanks so much. And thank you to the Recording Academy. We will never forget what you did for us. thanks so much. ”

Before Swift’s speech, her close friend and co-producer Aaron Dessner said, “I want to thank all the living people who somehow trusted me and collaborated with me during this crazy time we’ve all been living in. I can’t believe I’m standing here with one of the greatest songwriters of all time.”

From ‘Fearless’ to ‘Evermore’: Swift’s 7 Grammy Performances

In 2021, Swift brought her “Folklore” cottage to Los Angeles to create a five-and-a-half minute mashup of “Cardigan,” “August,” and “Willow.” The camera begins with a clear shot of Swift’s face bathed in moonlight on a moss-covered roof. The stars danced in a silhouetted forest behind her as the camera panned from the rooftop to a cozy, quaint attic. A musical interlude featured Swift appearing with a guitar, chiming in with “salt air and rusting doors” and featuring her two co-producers, Jack Antonoff and Aaron Dessner. She ended with the first song, “Evermore.”

In 2016, Swift opened the Grammy Awards with “Out of the Woods.” Her live rendition of the “1989” bop featured strong vocals during the bridge, in which she growled, “I got 20 stitches in the hospital room.” Swift wore a sparkly pantsuit and a sleek blonde bob. A dreamy landscape of a haunting forest filled with mist. Co-producer Jack Antonoff strummed his guitar next to a live band as white lights danced to a synth beat.

In 2014, Swift performed a five-minute acoustic version of “All Too Well” before the 10-minute version of “Red (Taylor’s Version)” was released. The intimate performance made headlines after Swift bumped her head seven times during the bridge, interrupting the piano playing. There’s a moment at 3:56 when her eyes pierce through the screen to her ex-lover, who she’s singing to. “But you have my old scarf.” The 10-minute version won Best Music Video of 2023, but not Best Song.

In 2013, Swift appeared in the middle of a white, red and black circus. The ringmaster, dressed in white with a dazzling silver cane and top hat, sang “We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together.” Circus performers inspired by “Alice in Wonderland” danced around the “Red” singer wearing fun checkered skirts and bunny ears. During the bridge, Swift rolled her eyes and sported a British accent, imitating her ex-lover’s phone call and saying, “I still love you.” Her response to that was, “I’m sorry. We’re busy preparing for the Grammys and we’ll never be together again. It’s the same as ever.”

“One day I’ll sing this at the Grammys,” Swift sang in 2012. The country music star brought the “Speak Now” era to the stage as he strummed “Mean” on his “13” banjo. A live band plays around her as the tornado wipes out the scene. An unhinged salon door, a bare ladder, a wooden bed frame, and a picket fence are some of the detritus nailed to the shabby backdrop.

In 2010, Ryan Seacrest introduced a young Swift at the Grammy Awards. Swift played “Today Was a Fairytale” for a minute before announcing Legend. “It’s a fairytale honor to share the stage with Stevie Nicks.” They performed Nicks’ “Rhiannon,” before segueing into a slower, folkier version of “You Belong With Me.” did.

In 2009, Swift made her Grammy debut when she performed the song “Fifteen” from Fearless with Miley Cyrus. The teen stars sat on chairs surrounded by fans. Swift wore a translucent white dress over a skintight black outfit. She sang her first verse while strumming a polished guitar. Cyrus belted out the chorus, “cause when you’re 15.” During the nearly four-minute heart-tugging performance, the two exchanged lyrics.
