Mika is NOT British !

British group
Editors - Don't ask me why cause I don't know

Muse - again

Mastercard British album

Arctic Monkeys - Favourite Worst Nightmare
Leona Lewis - Spirit
Mark Ronson - Version
Mika - Life in Cartoon Motion
Take That - Beautiful World

Remember music? It used to be quite popular a few years ago.

To paraphrase Des O'Connor, remember Modern Romance?

Mika carries a British passport thus is eligible.

Hmm... Mark Ronson has lived in NYC since the age of eight, so I guess we have another Antony Hegarty/Mercury Music Prize situation.

No Dizzee then.

The Brits - any colour nominee you like, as long as they're white (plus token half-caste).

That shortlist in full, including Best Single, International categories etc.

Critics' Choice: Adele

I wasn't asked and therefore declare this particular ballot.

The Eagles to win Best International Act just as they would have done back in 1978 when DLT and Anne Diamond were presenting.

...therefore declare this particular ballot INVALID, that should have been.

How splendid that a graduate of the BRITS SCHOOL should win the Critics' Choice award at the BRITS!

Critics' Choice Award: Adele.

...who has released one non-charting single to date.

Also, where is Amy Winehouse in all of this? One Best Single nomination for Mark Ronson's "Valerie", and that's your lot. OK, so the album was shortlisted last year, but even so...

How splendid that a graduate of the BRITS SCHOOL should win the Critics' Choice award at the BRITS!

smells dont it. especially as she hasn't even released a record yet.

xpost dangit

ar, but she's won PRIZES!!!

She has, though: "Hometown Glory", 22 October 2007.

oh my god it's a music biz stitch-up!!! who would have thought it?

This will certainly dent the credibility of the BRITS.

Have the BRITS really only just got around to giving SIR PAUL MACCARTHNY a LIFETIME ACHIEVEMENT AWARD?

What did Fred Wedlock have that Macca didn't?

She has, though: "Hometown Glory", 22 October 2007.

fair diddums - checked myspace and XL and saw no mention of this.
guess it was one of those teaser limited 7" then ?

Yes, that's exactly what it was. Arses have been duly covered, then.

predictions:

male - Mika
female - Leona
group - Arctic Monkeys
album - Mika
breakthrough - Kate Nash
live - Kaiser Chiefs
single - Ronsonhouse
furran male - Kanye
furran female - Kylie
furran group - Kings Of Leon
furran album - Kylie (because POP IS BACK)

kings of leon. seriously?

is the most difficult category so most potential for SHOCK - Arcade Fire still too edgy/just happy to be nominated Maniche, Foo Fighters are even older than The Eagles, White Stripes could just as easily win but even i am bored of them now.

i reckon arcade fire could do it.

Arcade Fire or Foo Fighters, fo' sho'.

'Neon Bible' is the only one that didn't top the album chart but don't suppose that will be a huge factor altho i imagine it sold the least out of the five noms

Since the Brit Awards are essentially based on record sales the Eagles, with their Britney-beating number one album, will triumph.

It would be nice to see both Arcade Fire and Feist picking up awards but doubtless So Brave Kylie has the International Female prize sewn up.

record sales and international audiences, that is.

Hold up, where's Lily Allen in all of this? Not one single nomination? Blimey.

OK, so here are my predictions. I got 8 out of 12 right last year, so I'm feeling dangerously cocky.

UK male - Mika
UK female - Leona Lewis
UK group - Kaiser Chiefs
UK album - Leona Lewis - Spirit
UK breakthrough - Klaxons
UK live act - Kaiser Chiefs
UK single - Leona Lewis - Bleeding Love
Int male - Kanye West
Int female - Kylie Minogue
Int group - Foo Fighters
Int album - Eagles - Long Road Out Of Eden

you have to have released an album since the last Brit awards to be nominated (unless you are Bobilliams) - so no Allen.

i'm sure dido broke that rule too, but yeah.

i can't remember what they replaced dance with but they seem to have dropped it too.

Aha, now I get it.

The categories are the same as last year, except they've ditched International Breakthrough in favour of the pre-determined Critics' Choice.

Arctic Monkeys spoiled it for Kaisers by releasing a second album a year later. BRITS like to have two bands they can alternate between for a bit.

So many 'indie' bands now that Bloc Party, The Enemy and SCOUTING FOR GIRLS can't even get a look in. Ditto solo females, alas poor Roisin and SEB.

Louis Jagger thinks this year's Brit Awards line-up is arguably better than Woodstock and Glasto '97 combined. 8m ago

with us in spirit

xpost bloc party excluded on 'being shit' grounds. roisin and seb on grounds they can't close.

bloc party excluded on 'being shit' grounds

yeah that doesn't really work

people you are most surprised to see won a Brit looking at wikipedia list of previous awards #1: Robert Miles

Once again I must point out that the winner of the Best International Newcomer BRIT Award in 1992 was the woman Tom Jones called "Lisa Lobby."

Glasto '97

Well that's the last of the sacred cows, what do we do now?

i was there. i didn't see radiohead though, though i hear they were passable.

Oh, it's tonight isn't it?

Yep, it's rubbernecking time again. I'm already rubb(erneck)ing my hands in anticipation of Sir Paul "Fab Gear Grotty" McCartney bringing the house down at the end with his rousing new single!

I... really don't care.

OK, cheers for popping in, later.

Those TV trailers NUCLEAR HOLOCAUST IN ONE SECOND

Better than Lily Allen saying "innovative"?

That was TWO SECONDS due to the fact Lily Allen/"innovative" doesn't get broadcast every three seconds.

Congratulations to much-loved Brits veteran Annie Lennox for winning the award of Best Female Vocalist for the 57th consecutive year!

"I'd like to thank Sony for dropping Annie Lennox"...

...from the top of the NatWest Tower.

"SHE'S A SURVIVOR, LIKE ME!"

"hello osbournes..."

I thought that was an intro for H Mills not Kylie. (xxp)

Kylie just bigged up the Beatles for writing their own songs. Eh?

some dumb macca comment on radio this pm about not wanting a lifetime award cos it sounds like he's finishing soon. wants a middle aged one. what a lifeless cod-rebel knob.

let's hope he does revolution no.9, with amy winehouse saying 'we become....naked', and mark ronson blurbing 'number nine'. arctic monkeys can do the 'eldorado' bit.

whatever, shut up and go downstairs...

megaa xxxxxxp

No-one wrote their own songs before the Beatles. All those artists the Beatles covered early on didn't, I'm sure. (xp)

Nah, 'Live And Let Die', with Amy Winehouse... priceless. In asociation with Visa.

"Briddish music is THE BEST!"

Damn skippy. The Brits School are thanked for being the only people who wanted to be here.

Paulie and Fearne must be the only two sober people in the building

The Beatles made the Brits possible then. Thanks Beatles.

IT IS THE SONG FROM THE IPOD AD which probably means Yael Naim's turning up in a minute aw hell no.

They had to fill for the last 13 minutes because McCartney's only got about three songs.

Mick Ronson plays bass in McCartney's band, it's a fix I tell thee.

Go on Paul, do 'Losing My Religion'. You've brought your mandolin, you may as well.

He should go for the youth vote and do Temporary Secretary with the Klaxons.

Go on, play 'Imagine'...

JAMES MITCHELL TAKES THE SWEEPSTAKE

It doesn't count if Amy Winehouse doesn't crack her head open live on stage. Also, there's only about three of us playing.

Shayne Ward is enjoying himself!

that's enough for me, out before the arm waving

xp

Zoned out and forgot the TV was on and this was still going.

Hey Jude = bollocks as always.

Johns Lennon and Peel have rolled so much in their graves tonight they've actually swopped coffins.

And we're finished just in time for News at Ten. It was better when Russell Brand was presenting.

See you all next year. same time, same place.

Hopefully the Brit Awards will go the way of TOTP and next year it'll just be posted on a Facebook page, or something.

Why am I watching the ITV2 aftershow? Why is Lauren Laverne presenting it? Does this mean Mark Kermode turns up in a minute? Please say yes...

No, Matt Willis instead. I think I need to go away now.

Sod ITV2, this new Trevor-presented News @ Ten is great, it's like a BBC3 sketch show but funnier. This poor missing chav girl's mother has got two black eyes! Why? No one explains!

(xpost) is Willis going to eat a big cock? because just about everything else this evening has...

Good morning. Here be posts from people who watched it without being online at the same time.

Alice on McCartney during the second song: "All the fireworks? It's only Live and Let Die!"

Good work, Vic Reeves!

No wonder they kept trailing Pushing Daisies through the ad break.

I suspect ITV will give much consideration to wondering whether they can afford to squander two peak-time hours next year on the Brit School Annual Prizegiving Ceremony and Associated Jam-Making Contest (isn't this supposed to be "the jam generation"?).

Nice of the Arctic Monkeys to try to engineer a Gilbert O'Sullivan revival but that's not going to change my feelings about their duff second album.

If they were going to give Mark Ronson an award then arguably the Outstanding Contribution one should have been awarded to Stars On 45.

Kaiser Chiefs "will play the weirdest set they've ever done." As Peel said: "anyone who tells you they're mad isn't."

Amy at least looking and acting like a proper star, even if I can't abide her music. Ditto Ditto.

Mika breaking new boundaries in bitonality.

SO BRAVE Kylie now the new Annie Lennox: official.

I assume Radiohead were being "punished."

"THIS MAN WROTE THE SOUNDTRACK TO THE REVOLUTION!"
Ten seconds later: "Let's dance tonight/Everything's alright."

The ratings for this week's Torchwood will be interesting to know.

two hours of your lives you won't be getting back.

That's what you think.

Sharon sort of announced "The man who wrote the songs for the Revolution. IN FACT..."

(stopped? Seeing as even she knows Revolution was written by John)

"... blumblumblum WROTE OZZY'S THEME SONG umm.."

(stopped again? If that was a reference to Oz's version of "In my life" as wrote by Lennon again)

"... "

spontaneouly combusted. That was no flamethrower during Live and Let Die Alice!

I'm sure we'll see Vic Reeves at next year's Brits. Someone has to do the sweeping up and hoovering afterwards.

Rose Swash liveblogs it w/all her usual irrepresable presonality:
