Musik von Kirby Super Star wurde gerade für einen Grammy nominiert

Today in ‘headlines we didn’t expect to be writing in 2021 – or indeed, ever’, we bring you the news that a track from SNES classic Kirby Super Star (known as Kirby’s Fun Pak in PAL regions) has been nominated for a Grammy.

The prestigious awards ceremony is gearing up for its 64th event and the full list of 2022 nominations has now been posted.
