"A Mighty Wind" vs. Eminem and Jack Black

December 8, 2003

The soundtrack for the folk music spoof A Mighty Wind has been nominated for two Grammy Awards. The song A Mighty Wind - written by actors Christopher Guest, Eugene Levy and Michael McKean and featuring fictitious artists The Folksmen, Mitch & Mickey, and The New Main Street Singers - is up against Act A Fool from 2 Fast 2 Furious, The Hands That Built America (U2) from Gangs of New York, I Move On from Chicago, and Eminem's Lose Yourself from 8 Mile. The soundtrack album competes with compilations from Chicago, Gangs of New York, Kill Bill - Vol. 1, and the Jack Black vehicle School of Rock.
