Costello says he didn't know his album was entered in the traditional pop category. "I didn't know anything about it until we got the nomination. I didn't even know we were eligible."
The Grammys' decision this year to expand their definition of traditional pop had a huge impact on that category. For one thing, the number of entries for best traditional pop vocal album jumped significantly, from 55 last year to 81 this year. Also, the change allowed two artists -- Elvis Costello and John Legend -- to receive their first nominations in the category.
