Indiana's already had two songs chart this year hasn't she? Not sure what the rules are with this nonsense but I look forward to being blown away again like I was by Ella Eyre, Sampha and Sam Smith this year :unsure:

(still lmao @ the fact they made the top 5 and fka twigs, royal blood and chance the rapper didn't)

Oh has she. I thought it was like a top 10 album or something daft, because Ella and Sam both had #1 singles and managed to be 1st and 2nd respectably.

I usually end up proper loving somebody on the long list though. The Naked and Famous the other year, then Say Lou Lou last year.

oh yeah, forgot Sam was #1 with Naughty Boy (and Ella with Rudimental about 5 times)

but yeah Solo Dancing made the top 15 I think (I have it on my TiBB Song of 2014 list anyway), and Heart on Fire made the top 40 too

Im looking forward to the longlist!

I'm hoping Young Kato have made the cut :fc:

has it really been a year since last time

probably be james bay that wins it. my sister is obsessed with him

omfg yes I love them.

their Sunshine ep :lovedup:

So good. Alas they didn't feature :sad:

can i put money on this

years and years are also getting *****d out quite alot on BBC

I quite liked Slaves on Jools t'other week

So after listening to 30 seconds of all those who have stuff up on their respective pages.

Kwabs, James Bay and Rae Morris and Shura (yass you stanning for the gay community tbh) are the ones I'm interested in. Liked James Bay for a couple of months tho. I knew R1 started overplaying Hold Back The River he'd be in the list.

****, didn't see stormzy, be an amazing winner

Ill listen in a bit :amazed:

I've just listened to 1,2,1,2 by George The Poet and i'm currently listening to Rae Morris - Closer.. So far i like them both

OMG. Yasssssss Shamir :love: :love: :love:

shura :flutter:

Oh I just went on his actual youtube because his page didn't link to anything directly.

He is SASS.

like GTP but that song is an abomination

Oooooooooh, Shura is great too
