Brit Award 2008 Nominations.

Penny · Brit Award 2008 Nominations.

Who do you want to win.

As long as Kate Nash and Mika don't win anything I'll be happy. They have to have two of the most annoying voices I've ever heard (along with James Blunt).

Why aren't the Sugababes in the best group category - they're way better than Girls Aloud!

I want Valerie to win best British single, although I am quite fond of the Sugababes 'About you now'.

I don't have a big opinion on the majority here.

I have the Richard Hawley and Mark Ronson albums which I think are both great.
I'd like to see Richard Hawley win something, he has released 3 very good albums and to be nominated when he isn't very mainstream at all is a great achievement.

I expect Mark Ronson to bag a couple of awards.

Foo Fighters deserve something for two of the best singles last year.

I have a soft spot for the Sugababes also and would have liked them to do well.

^ Are there loads of good songs on the Mark Ronson album? I love Winehouse's version of Valerie, so I was thinking of buying it on the strength of that.

The cover of Oh My God by Kaiser Chiefs with Lily Allen is alright, and he's done a cover of Radiohead's Just. They're the only ones I've heard from it.

Edit: Other than Valerie

funkymonkey

^Yeah the whole album is to a pretty high standard. I think Valerie is the big stand out tune but Lilly Allen's Kaiser Chief cover is good too. I also quite like the Toxic cover by 'Triggers'.

The band he uses for all of the tracks are the Daptones and apparently their albums are very good if you like soul, I've not heard them.

I'd say the winners were:

Male Solo Artist: Mark Ronson
Female Solo Artist: Kate Nash (unfortunately)
British Group: Take That
British Album: Mark Ronson, Version
British Breakthrough: Kate Nash
British Live Act: Muse (known as a great band live, I’ve seen them - amazing!)
British Single: Sugababes or Kaiser Chiefs
International Male: Timbaland
International Female: Probably Rihanna (haven’t heard much from the others)
International Group: Arcade Fire
International Album: Probably Kylie because of the cancer thing will play into her hands, although tbh I haven't heard of any of these albums
