1976 Grammys Best Female Pop Vocal Performance - Did the right person win?

This was one hell of a lineup! We don’t see lineups like this anymore (especially because now the awards are not separated by gender). Every single person nominated was deserving, however I feel the person who won for that song was the worst of the five. My opinion.

Who do you feel should have won?

It was one of the relatively few appropriate awards this corrupt shit show has managed.

Collins delivered a mediocrity as usual with no verve or authenticity, Linda was not at her best channeling Rita Coolidge, and the other two were absurd nominations from the start.

I think the right female singer won. Honestly though I never cared for any of those songs.

Romstadt should have won.

Brooks Arthur brilliantly produced the Janis Ian single /

The way that song sounded on the car radio still is in my head.

Send in the Clowns had a long slow rise in popularity..... unlike anything else in my memory.

What prompted it to come back in 1977 and chart higher? the Grammy win? very unusual.

Sinatra first recorded Send in the Clowns in 1973. Two years later Judy Collins recorded "Send in the Clowns" for her album Judith. The song was released as a single, which soon became a major pop hit. It remained on the Billboard Hot 100 for 11 weeks in 1975, reaching Number 3

] The single again reached the Billboard Hot 100 in 1977, where it remained for 16 weeks and reached Number 19.[14] At the Grammy Awards of 1976, the Collins performance of the song was named Song of the Year

Natalie Cole won for Best New Artist this year. Where have the years gone?

When I hear the lyric, "isn't it rich?". I cringe so much my pooker tightens.
