Grammy Predix: Song of the Year

The Contenders:

• "Before He Cheats," Josh Kear & Chris Tompkins (Carrie Underwood)
• "Hey There Delilah," Tom Higgenson (Plain White T's)
• "Like a Star," Corinne Bailey Rae (Corinne Bailey Rae)
• "Rehab," Amy Winehouse (Amy Winehouse)
• "Umbrella," Shawn Carter, Kuk Harrell, Terius "Dream" Nash & Christopher Stewart (Rihanna Featuring Jay-Z)

Our Prediction:  "Before He Cheats"

It's hard to think of a song that could top the inescapable "ella-ella-eh-eh-eh" of "Umbrella," but Underwood's "Before He Cheats" does. It's flat-out a great song with clever lyrics, a strong woman's point of view and a well-sharpened hook—not to mention a wronged woman—you can't forget. And Underwood delivers it with a passion that proves no Idol winner is better or more deserving.
