also heard a lot about FKA Twigs: song's a bit meh and the video's just trying to be weird so idk, might like some other of her stuff. and I chanced upon this song by Say Lou Lou on Popjustice and it's lovely :lovedup: |
Chloe Howl :love:
|
I was expecting an influx of Foxes, but after Clarity and Youth being hits, she might have not been eligible. Still my pick for Critics Choice at the Brits.
I was hoping NoNoNo would get nominated as well :sad: Will give these a listen, the descriptions sound promising and Ella was fantastic on Waiting All Night, that was my jam. |
They must also not have been the lead artist on a UK top 20 single or album before 4 November 2013 - but guest vocalists are eligible.
Ah, Youth may have just caused her to miss out then. |
that or her glaring lack of charisma and talent
|
Noo A*M*E :( or was she on last year's?
|
:laugh:
I think she has a great voice, Youth was a bop! A*M*E featured last year :lovedup: |
Ohhhh :laugh:
From the list, Banks is a fave (This Is What It Feels Like :love:) and Sam Smith is great, I love that song he's just brought out with Disclosure and Nile Rodgers. Sampha has a great voice too. |
AlunaGeorge, A*M*E, Angel Haze, Arlissa, Chvrches, Haim, King Krule, Kodaline, Laura Mvula, Little Green Cars, Palma Violets, Peace, Savages, The Weeknd and Tom Odell
2013 list.. most of them had decent enough 2013s, a few floppy no-marks though. Poor Little Green Cars, I liked their song. |
I really like this song too..
|
I'm not really into somebody this year, like the past few.
Maybe what they'll release will change it, George's song was pleasant enough, and I liked Ella on Rudimental. |
Chance :worship:
|
is it really this time already
and the reading line up is out tomorrow, i swear it gets earlier every year |
omg I made a thread about FKA Twigs
|
Really aren't many stand out names from that apart from Chance this year
|
Sam Smith FTW :love:
|
can we just @ the Bravery beating Bloc Party and Kaiser Chiefs
and little boots beating gaga, florence, la roux, empire of the sun, passion pit and kid cudi :') |
That FKA Twigs video is freaky I don't know if that girl is the singer or if it's band or if there's something wrong with her but Jesus Christ her face! Looks like a wee fish.
|
yeah she's a solo girl
|
a solo fish
|
I love this, I think I like him the most out of the solo boys, I have developed an irrational hate for Sam Smith idfk why either.. I have no idea who the top 5 will be, Haim surprised me being a big thing of 2013 so. Sam Smith and Ella will probably be certs, but idfc for them, maybe Chance, maybe Simpha.. we'll see |
Did Michael Kiwanuka die? He got this, was in the running for Critics Choice and disappeared forever, icr if I liked him.
|
album reached #4 apparently
stupid choice for winner above frank ocean and azealia though |
