Ben&Ben is shooting its shot at the Grammys with a new version of one of its best-loved songs. The Filipino band has submitted “Leaves (Reimagined)” for consideration in the Best Pop Duo/Group Performance category. The track is part of Nine, the band’s first anthology album, which looks back on its first nine years. In a social media post, the group called the submission “a long shot, impossible dream,” but said it will still try. So fans are already cheering the band on.
Ben&Ben Grammy Submission Details
- Song: “Leaves (Reimagined)”
- Album: Nine, Ben&Ben’s first anthology album
- Category: Best Pop Duo/Group Performance
- Status: Submitted for consideration
What Is ‘Leaves (Reimagined)’?
The band describes the new track as a “deeper, more mature version” of the original “Leaves.” The reimagined song appears on Nine, which was released in September.
The anthology album looks back on Ben&Ben’s first nine years as a band. It came out ahead of the group’s Saranggola concert, which was reported as sold out.
What Happens Next
A submission is the first step, not a nomination. Recording Academy members will vote on which entries make the final list of nominees. So fans will need to wait for the official nominations announcement to see if the song makes the cut.
Why It Matters for OPM
Filipino acts are getting more global attention than ever. For instance, OPM bands have recently played major international stages. A Grammy nod would be a big moment for Philippine music.
Either way, Ben&Ben’s submission shows how far OPM can reach.
