American Music Awards
The American Music Awards were created by Dick Clark in 1973 to honor popular musicians from various genres of music and to "put audiences in touch with the latest phenomena in American music". Initial nominees are selected from data compiled by the music industry trade publication, Radio & Records and Nielsen SoundScan, an information system that tracks retail music sales. Top nominees are determined from a national sampling of 15,000 people, and a winner is decided by online voting of the American public. Crow has received three awards from three nominations.

Famous quotes containing the words american and/or music:
“They are a curious mixture of Spanish tradition, American imitation, and insular limitation. This explains why they never catch on to themselves.”
—Helen Lawrenson (1904–1982)
“And in the next instant, immediately behind them, Victor saw his former wife.
At once he lowered his gaze, automatically tapping his cigarette to dislodge the ash that had not yet had time to form. From somewhere low down his heart rose like a fist to deliver an uppercut, drew back, struck again, then went into a fast disorderly throb, contradicting the music and drowning it.”
—Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)
