What's the deal with the singles? K-os for something other than "B-Boy Stance"? Trews for something other than "Tired of Waiting"???

Best of luck to Feist and Death from Above 1979, on the new artist/group thing. And Avril better win best pop artist.

songwriter - sarah harmer vs sarah slean vs rufus wainwright vs ron sexsmith. yike! (also: interesting how awesome canadians are at this category)

Oh, and hooray - Arcade Fire for alt record and album art.

how is FeFe Dobson STILL a new artist? and does she sell up north?


im still not getting this whole arcade fire thing.

It's weird that Feist is considered for Best New Artist following her second solo album and over ten years of making records in general, but whatever.
I'm a little depressed at the obviousness of a lot of the nom's and that K-os is shut out of album and artist of the year. He's certainly sold more and accomplished more than Simple Plan??? Those guys are douchebags.

And FeFe Dobson's x-canada tour last year sold very few tickets.
