VHM U2, but this *is* '91 we're talking about, so I'm being picky.

There are 139 entries for U2 songs in the Db, and The Fly is a bustout.  Big BOS from me!

I remember when Queensryche was up for a Grammy for "Silent Lucidity," whoever was reading the nominees was obviously unfamiliar with the song, stumbling over the title and finally calling it "Silent Lucy."

BTW, did you disable the data-sort option on the db? Not working for me, and it's MUCH easier to search when you can sort.

WOS Queensryche. Ugh.

Was that the same year Jethro Tull won in the Hard Rock category at the expense of Metallica, and the presenter said words to the effect that 'you gotta give Jethro credit, he's been making great records for a long time.'

Easy BOS vote: "Texarkana," one of my very favorite R.E.M. efforts.

I wouldn't begin to know how to do that, it must be something with your copy of Excel.

BOS #2 Mike Mills!  Great sounding backing band he has there.  ;)

That happened in '89.  But when Metallica finally won in '92, Lars Ulrich got off a great line: "We'd like to thank Jethro Tull for not putting out an album this year."
