Finally, it looks like theyre at last turning into awards show that is about decent music, it started last year with some respectable nominations but none won anything, this years winners are much better apart from Will Young and Robbie Williams(I always thought Radio 2 listeners had better taste).

Joss Stone for best female was ok although how she won best Urban is beyond me.
Franz Ferdinand deservedly won best rock and group although should have been nominated and won best single
Keane walked off with best album and best newcomers
Gwen Stefani got best international female, don't agre with it, should have been Kelis
Avril Lavigne should have got best pop act but it went to McFly
Will Young getting british single was a disgrace
Muse got live act
Eminem got best international male and a couple of years ago i would have agreed but at least it wasn't bloody Usher
Scissor Sisters win international album, breakthrough and group, the last one probably being the only one should have got.
Robbie Williams won yet another vote to prove once again how dumb the voting public are, if thats the best song of the last 25 years i'll jump off a cliff.
Bob Geldof gets the outstanding contribution to music award, wrongly i think, musically he's not done much in a long time and if anything this is just for his charity work.

Overall it's a big improvement on previous years and i'll be looking forward to next years Brits.

Meh, she's not too bad. Never really bothered with her though.

Hasn't she only done the one song this year? No Doubt releases shouldn't count...

Bah, although I'd still say that if Avril got it.

What the hell?

He deserves it. So would Usher, although he made a stupid decision teaming up with Lil' Jon, as has everyone else who has done the same.

They totally deserve all three. I'm glad they did so well.

Decent?! Baaaah. Robbie's old now and should never win an award again. Will Young.. gah, all the hype was about him being gay, not his music.
Suprised Kasabian didn't win anything, would've liked them to. Scissor Sisters are the only ones who deserved an award out of that lot..
