Joey Feek can't believe first ever Joey + Rory Grammy nomination: All the 2016 nominees

Joey Feek has another reason to continue her fight against cancer. The terminally ill singer received uplifting news Monday morning after the names for the 58th Annual Grammy Awards were announced. Joey and her husband Rory Feek of the country duo Joey + Rory received their first-ever Grammy nomination for Best Country Duo/Group Performance of "If I Needed You." Rory took to Facebook to share the exciting news.

"[I] woke my bride up this morning with a baby in my arms and the news that our version of "If I Needed You" was nominated for a Grammy," he wrote on the couple's page. To which his bedridden wife asked, "How can that be?"

The unexpected nomination moved the couple to tears. Rory revealed, "The song received no radio airplay... no press... no critical acclaim... and the only music video we made for it was to celebrate the day our little Indiana was born."

He added, "God is so good."

The overjoyed musician also shared a video of the song for which he and his wife were nominated. With the Grammy nomination, it looks like Christmas has come early for the Feeks. "My wife knows I love Christmas," Rory wrote on his blog This Life I Live last Friday. "There's a magic that's in the air that isn't there any other time of the year." So far the holidays are off to a great start. Rory shared last week: "Joey's still feeling pretty good. Really good actually."

He continued, "We've been able to keep her pain under control for the most part and her spirit is just as positive as ever. Even more so here lately."

Joining Rory and Joey on the list of 2016 Grammy nominees are The Weeknd, Taylor Swift and Kendrick Lamar. Kendrick leads the pack with 11 nods, while The Weeknd and Taylor Swift each snagged seven nominations, including Record of the Year and Album of the Year.

Noticeably missing from list are Justin Bieber and Adele, both of whom released their hit albums in November. The cut-off date for eligible music is September 30, so the chart-topping singers will have to wait until 2017 to go for the Grammy gold.

The 2016 Grammy Awards will air live February 15 on CBS.
