The Grammy nominations are out and despite recent years having more current competitors on the list, this year saw a lot of 2023 features nominated. “Love Will Survive” seems to be a big contender in Song, while Challengers is unlikely to compete but might now that Dune: Part Two has been ruled ineligible by the Academy. As to the music films appearing in Documentary Feature, I think The Greatest Night in Pop is the only one with enough cachet to make it through.
