This is the reason why it is nominated for a grammy. Not because it's just another good/popular song, like most of their "hits" have been. I'm not saying that their past hits do not deserve a grammy but "Who says" has opened up a huge new path of oppurtunity not just for Bon Jovi but for rock bands and country groups all over. The fact that it took the country by storm and became a number one hit on the country charts is what makes it a big deal and grammy worthy. Had a different group come up with the same idea with of collaborating with a country artist the same thing could've happened. But it didn't and Bon Jovi did it first!!!
Also, I believe they should win it, but that's only because I'm not at all familiar with the other nominees. Go Bon Jovi!
