The 53rd annual Grammy Award nominees were announced on Wednesday, Dec. 1, during a special one-hour telecast on CBS. There were plenty of surprises this year, from Arcade Fire scoring their first Album of the Year nomination (for their excellent third disc, "The Suburbs") to a virtual unknown, jazz/soul artist Esperanza Spalding, going up against Drake and Justin Bieber for Best New Artist.
