Well…not techincally.
Miley Cyrus’s song “The Climb” was submitted for a Grammy Award in the ‘Best Song from a Motion Picture’ category. Since Cyrus naturally didn’t write the song herself, she was never nominated.
However, the song has no been pulled and replaced with The Yeah Yeah Yeahs song, ‘All is Love’ from ‘Where the Wild Things Are.’
Via People:
“A source inside the Cyrus camp says the sudden swap was hardly a surprise and that the song was submitted in the category by mistake. The source says “The Climb” was withdrawn from the competition a day later.
The Grammy organization wasn’t explicit about why “The Climb” was replaced.”
Likely, the pulling of the nomination had something to do with the timing of the release of the film, I prefer to think it’s merely because the song was overplayed and incredibly annoying.
UPDATE:
Thanks, as always to our loyal and very smart readers for pointing out that ‘The Climb’ wasn’t written by the Yeah Yeah Yeahs, but, more specifically, Karen-O and the Kids. MWAH! My bad.
The song is actually by Karen O and The Kids, not the Yeah Yeah Yeahs.
Why does everybody hate Miley?! Shes like Bush. That song IS a beautiful song! I’m sick of those bastards treating her like nothing. SHES a very special girl that deserves the recognition. Poor Miley.
