Venue: Grammy Awards 1989
Winner: Crest of a Knave by Jethro Tull.
The biggest problem here is that Jethro Tull music did not belong in the hard rock or heavy metal genres, even according to Jethro Tull themselves.
The Grammy Committee got a lot of criticism and this case is still considered as one of the biggest Grammy upsets.
It should of been the winner for being the first superhero Film to win the motion picture at the Oscars instead they pick a Bollywood type film.
My disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined
Iron Maiden are an English Heavy Metal band formed in Leyton, East London, in 1975 by bassist and primary songwriter Steve Harris. The most critically acclaimed period for the band was from 1983-1989. With vocalist Bruce Dickinson, bassist Steve Harris, lead guitarist Dave Murray, rhythm guitarist Adrian Smith, and drummer Nicko McBrain. Smith left the band in 1989 and was replaced by Janick Gers. But returned in 1999, and now the band has three guitar players. ...read more. Venue: Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame Induction Ceremony 2018
Inductees: Bon Jovi, The Cars, Dire Straits, The Moody Blues, Nina Simone and Sister Rosetta Tharpe.
Iron Maiden should have been inducted long ago so this isn't a problem of the 2018 Ceremony only.
I agree, because: 1) Guns N' Roses aren't metal; 2) the video to One is much more meaningful
Venue: MTV Video Music Awards 1989
Winner: "Sweet Child O' Mine" by Guns N' Roses

He came empty handed many times..when he really deserved all those Oscars.
And "As good as it gets" wasn't even good..Nicholson didn't do any fab job.
Leo deserved the Oscar for Aviator ( has anyone seen the movie? Saw how he dived into the story and character? ), Who's eating Gilbert Grape ( that role was damn hard to play ), Departed, Revolutionary Road, Django Unchained and of course Titanic.
What's even funnier is that he wasn't even nominated for the Oscar.
Venue: Oscar Awards 1997
Winner: Jack Nicholson (As Good as It Gets)
This was a mistake the Metal Grammy Committee made. The Committee got a lot of criticism in 1989-90 for giving the metal Grammy to Jethro Tull (not even a metal band) and not to Metallica. I guess The Committee tried to fix the mistake in 1991 but made another mistake. Stone Cold Crazy is a very good Queen cover but it's a cover, not original metal song. In general, the Metal Grammys are such a joke. Hate 'Em All 😊.
Venue: Grammy Awards 1991
Winner: Stone Cold Crazy By Metallica (Queen Cover)
Venue: Grammy Awards 1970
Winner: Self-titled album By Blood, Sweat & Tears

I disagree with this.
Every Breath You Take is one of the most loved and best selling tracks of all time.
It's iconic, like no other.
Venue: Grammy Awards 1984
Winner: "Every Breath You Take" By The Police

Venue: Grammy Awards 2001
Winner: Two Against Nature By Steely Dan
Venue: Grammy Awards 1993
Winner: Nine Inch Nails' "Wish"
Nine Inch Nails aren't even a metal band.
As much as I don't think Brave was a bad film, I think Wreck-it Ralph was more deserving of it.
In no way 1989 is better than this. TPAB is a masterpiece that will be remembered for years and years to come while people are already forgetting that 1989 was a thing
This should be significantly higher.
Francis Ford Coppola is an American film director, producer, screenwriter and film composer. He was a central figure in the New Hollywood wave of filmmaking. I mean come on
Venue: Grammy Awards 1992
Winner: Black Album By Metallica
Venue: Oscar Awards 1999
Winner: Shakespeare in Love
Venue: Oscar Awards 2015
Winner: 'Big Hero 6'
Not only should 'The Lego Movie' have been nominated but it should've been the winner. It was much better than 'Big Hero 6'.
Actually I love both of these films. BH6 is probably my favorite Disney animated movie not including pixar, but TLM, sorry, it's one of the greatest movies of all time
Dare I Point out that Mary Poppins Returns was never really a contender in the Comedy/Musical category. It was Green Book's to lose much to the dismay of the Crazy Rich Asians fan club.
Venue: Golden Globes 2019.
Winners: Mamma Mia & Bohemian Rhapsody.
Inductees: Emily Blunt, Lin Manual Miranda, Dick Van Dyke.
