On Wednesday night (Dec. 5), the nominations for the 55th annual Grammy Awards will be unveiled during the "Grammy Nominations Concert Live!! -- Countdown to Music's Biggest Night," which means that there are only a few more hours to speculate about the major categories. After Adele and her blockbuster "21" album dominated last year's ceremony, the 2013 Grammys are a fairly wide-open affair, with a handful of healthy offerings in rock, hip-hop, pop, folk, country, dance and R&B all vying for this year's top prizes. And of course, there are always a few surprises thrown into the mix -- after all, Bon Iver was nominated as a singles artist last year, while Rihanna scored an Album of the Year nod.
So which albums, songs and artists can we expect to have memorable nights on Wednesday? Check out our prognostications for the four major categories -- Album of the Year, Record of the Year, Song of the Year and Best New Artist -- and let us know what you think will get nominated in the comments section below. Note: these are unofficial predictions, with no prior knowledge of tonight's results.
