John Mayer,

Sheryl Crow and Rascall Flatts also picked up some nominations for some of their non-Cars songs.

Hmm, a nice selection, and all of the nominations definitely make sense. Hopefully,

Cars will scoop a fair few grammys.

Oscar nomination for ‘Our Town’ is a lock by now.

I think

Cars will win the overall Soundtrack Album grammy award.

The Star Swordsman - I

agree. Here’s hoping that Cars will pull off a spectacular win… *drinks

rootbeer*

Thank you for compiling the list of the nominations for us, RMS.

I don’t think the

songs can make the cut to winning. I will support it however.
