Nobody hates a cliche more than a conscientious record reviewer, but the fact is there are no losers on Grammy Nominees 2005. Though not all the acts represented here walked away with a golden statuette for their efforts, many —including Alicia Keys, Los Lonely Boys, and Maroon 5 —did, and the ones that didn't handily demonstrate why they earned the nod. Gretchen Wilson represents all that's right with modern country via her inescapable "Redneck Woman," and the genre jumble of relative newcomers Kanye West, Joss Stone and Josh Groban likewise make the case for keeping the radio dial spinning. Older listeners are the real winners here, though: Brian Wilson, Elvis Costello, Prince and U2 pull former awards-show junkies into the present and confer generational props at the same time. -Tammy La Gorce

 Great Collection June 1, 2007
I like these collections as a short-hand way of finding out what's happening in pop music these days. I like the opportunity to be exposed to things I might not otherwise listen to. It's too bad that all the Grammy nominees couldn't appear here but, hey, music is a business after all. All in all a good investment.
 FULL SPECTRUM MUSICAL COMPENDIUM March 22, 2007
WOW! What a collection! Just like fine wine, you get good years and then you get better years. This is the latter. Some years (that will remain anonymous to protect the guilty), the Grammy collection is overweighted with what sounds like ONE SONG performed by different groups. No such worries here.
So sit back, enjoy a bottle of your favorite wine (or, if with the Gretchen Wilson Tailgate Party, your on-sale bargain brew) close your eyes and travel the landscape of the year that was 2005 (or, if with the G.W.T.P., yodel).
 Total garbage. January 23, 2006

This collection shows us, Jack and Jill public, how narrow minded the Grammy voters are today. Not one track on this so-called collection is worthy of a listen or a grammy nod. QUIET.

YAAAAAAAAWWWWWWNNN! Don't even bother buying and listening to this CD. Every song on here lacks emotion, meaningful lyrics, and any type of memorable melody. Standards are set so low that any untalented fool can get a record deal, sample to their hearts content, and win a Grammy. Skip this and get Stevie Wonders greatest hits collection.

I've purchased these since 2002 and was not pleased with this one...I would check out the songs before you buy this round.
