Bruno Mars Nominated For Four Grammy Awards At 2014 Grammys
(Grammys)
Bruno Mars has been nominated for four Grammys for the 56th Annual 2014 Grammy Awards, though some say technically it's five. He is nominated for Record Of The Year for "Locked Out Of Heaven," and Song Of The Year for "Locked Out Of Heaven." He is also nominated for Best Pop Solo Performance for "When I Was Your Man," and Best Pop Vocal Album for Unorthodox Jukebox. A few of these may not be televised but my hopes are up that he wins!
Some argue it's five because Sultan + Ned Shepard's great "Locked Out Of Heaven" remix is nominated for Best Remixed Recording, Non-Classical. You be the judge.
Once again, he's got stiff competition. Here's the complete list of his categories:
Record Of The Year
