Lady Gaga earns three nominations, including Album of the Year for "Born This Way"
OMAHA, Neb. -- One of the biggest pop stars in the world, Lady Gaga, sings about her "Nebraska guy" in one of her biggest songs. But another Nebraska guy is also getting credit for the song.
On the radio and on iPods everywhere, Lady Gaga's song "You and I" still gets a lot of play. Her voice track for the song was recorded in Omaha, and the guy who runs the studio has been nominated, along with the music superstar, for a Grammy.
Tom Ware, of Ware House Productions, runs one of the most acoustically perfect studios in the world. Back in March, when Lady Gaga was in town for show at the CenturyLink Center, she recorded the vocal track for the song.
"It was one of those moments. It was all about capturing the performance, capturing the magic," Ware said.
Ware said after spending two hours mixing the track, he sent it off to producer Robert John "Mutt" Lange is Switzerland.
The song became an instant No. 1 hit, and it's found on Lady Gaga's Born This Way album.
Ware learned that the album has been nominated for a Grammy last week. And after 30 years of recording and creating music, Ware said this is one of his proudest moments. But he doesn't plan to make any career changes if it wins.
Ware said Lady Gaga was so down to earth, and she even took his feedback and opinions into consideration during the recording.
The Grammy Awards Ceremony is Feb. 12.
