Sasha Frere-Jones Breaks Down This Year’s Grammy Nominations
Song of the Year
“All of the Lights,” Kanye West
“The Cave,” Mumford & Sons
“Grenade,” Bruno Mars
“Holocene,” Bon Iver
“Rolling in the Deep,” AdeleThis award recognizes songwriting, rather than a finished recording (that’s Record of the Year).

Kanye’s “All of the Lights” should be shifted from this category into Record of the Year, and win.
