U2 Wins Grammy Award for Album of the Year
(from AP) Rock and Roll Hall of Fame members U2 captured the Grammy Award for album of the year for the disc "How to Dismantle an Atomic Bomb."
It was the band's second major award of the night, having won song of the year for "Sometimes You Can't Make It on Your Own," one of the album's songs.
"This is really a big, big night for our band," Bono said.
U2 beat out Mariah Carey's best-selling "The Emancipation of Mimi," shutting out the songbird from any of the major Grammy Awards in her comeback year. Other nominees included Paul McCartney's "Chaos and Creation in the Backyard," Gwen Stefani's "Love. Angel. Music. Baby.," and Kanye West's "Late Registration."
