NEW YORK — Sam Smith will battle the ladies at the Grammys: “Stay With Me” is nominated for record of the year against hits like “Fancy,” “Shake It Off” and “All About That Bass.”

Sia’s “Chandelier” is also up for the Grammy, one of the four top awards. Pharrell and Ed Sheeran announced the nominees in four categories Friday morning on CBS.

Smith is also nominated for best pop vocal album for his debut, “In the Lonely Hour.” He’ll battle albums from Sheeran, Miley Cyrus, Ariana Grande, Katy Perry and Coldplay.

Pharrell earned a nomination for best urban contemporary album for “G I R L.” His competition includes Beyoncé’s self-titled fifth album, Chris Brown and newcomers Mali Music and Jhene Aiko.

For best country album, the nominees include Dierks Bentley, Brandy Clark, Eric Church, Lee Ann Womack and Miranda Lambert, whose “Platinum” won album of the year at the Country Music Association Awards.

Pharrell, who won four Grammys earlier this year, still has potential to be nominated for a number of Grammys, when The Recording Academy announces more nominees for its 57th annual awards later today on Twitter. The top award, album of the year, will be announced when the TV special “A Very GRAMMY Christmas” airs at 9 p.m. on CBS. The other top awards are best new artist and song of the year.

Pharrell had an epic year, thanks to his Oscar-nominated hit, “Happy,” and his album, “G I R L,” as well as producing songs on albums from Beyoncé and Sheeran, which could earn the hitmaker additional nominations.

Smith, a British newcomer whose hits include “Stay With Me” and “I’m Not the Only One,” said in an interview Thursday night that he was nervous about the nominations.

“I’m scared. It’s like Christmas Eve right now for me,” Smith said. “I’d love my album to get that platform so I don’t know. Fingers crossed.”

The Grammy Awards will air live Feb. 8 from the Staples Center in Los Angeles. “A Very GRAMMY Christmas,” a taped special, will feature performances from Pharrell, Smith, Ariana Grande, Maroon 5 and more.
