		The late singer and pianist's presence was everywhere Sunday night at the 47th annual Grammy Awards, from performance tributes to wins in two of the biggest categories -- album of the year and record of the year.
		U2, upon winning best rock performance for a duo or group with vocal for "Vertigo," praised the other nominees -- "This may be the best Grammys ever," said Bono -- and took time to pay tribute to its fans, who had hoped to see the band on tour.
		The trio won the first Grammy of the night -- for best performance by a pop duo or group with vocals -- for the song "Heaven." The group had performed the tune a few minutes earlier in the Grammy Awards ceremony's opening segment.

	Predicting Grammy 2001 by Seth Rogovoy
		Best Song: Let's assume for no particular reason that this award won't go to a country song, or that votes for Lee Ann Womack and Faith Hill cancel each other out.
		Best New Artist: The Grammys are always at their most curious in this category, where, for example, an artist who has been recording for well over a decade like Shelby Lynne can be nominated.
		Best Female Rock Vocal: This category pits a typical crew of the likes of Melissa Etheridge, Alanis Morrissette, Fiona Apple and Sheryl Crow against the woman who pretty much broke the female rock vocal mold, Patti Smith, in what is probably her first nomination ever.
