Every year the website does a counter-measure to the Mercury Prize for pop songs - I think British ones to be specific - where they meet in a pub and argue about it for a while and give twenty quid to the one voted the best.

This year's nominees are...

CHVRCHES - The Mother we Share
Disclosure - White Noise
Duke Dumont - Need U 100%
Mutya Keisha Siobhan - Flatline
Little Mix - DNA
Girls Aloud - Something New
One Direction - Kiss You
Olly Murs - Dear Darlin'
The Saturdays - Gentleman (!!!?!)
Petula Clark - Cut Copy Me
VV Brown - The Apple
Robbie Williams - Candy

now yes this is a very good list of songs with maybe 2 exceptions but which one gets your vote

[Shaun]

i have voted for VV because no one else will

also it is a ****ing tune

CHVRCHES were my favourites from this years Sound of 2013, and I really quite liked the album a lot, totally my sort of thing, so would like them.

But aren't Popjustice massive Sugababes fans? So I can see MKS getting it.

I can feel a flatline that oughta be a wave

Girls Aloud have won the prize I think 5 times so I can see Something New being the favourite

Need U 100% () > Kiss You > Candy

DNA and Dear Darlin' are good but not worthy enough

[Jack_]

also I'm disgusted at Gentlemen being considered better than What About Us like just no

[Shaun]

2004: Rachel Stevens - Some Girls

Ah

I think Jealousy won last time? I love their twitter responses to Will every time he tweets

[Black Dagger]

Ah, right before I responded. Good winners for the majority (and I like Example -shoot me I deserve it s0b-)

White Noise > Flatline > DNA > rest

[Black Dagger]

Mini Viva were robbed in 2010 though that £20 could have kept their career going for a little while longer (like how all 3 of their songs featured in the lineup pmsl)

[King Gizzard]

Kiss You/White Noise

[Me. I Am Salman]

Need U (100%) > all those vile songs
Rudimental/Katy B should be up there

[Tom4784]

The Apple followed by The Mother We Share

[Z]

Okay but if we have to pretend Flatline isn't the best song on the list where are you all ranking it?

[Black Dagger]

42nd i guess xo

[Shaun]

8th if I'm really honest Greg

The Apple, Something New, Candy, Kiss You, White Noise, Need U and The Mother We Share >

[Matt]

I'm happy as long as it's Something New or Flatline

[Z]

[Me. I Am Salman]

Why are GA always nominated

[Shaun]

because they're always amazing

[Me. I Am Salman]

The only good songs up there are No Good Advice (their best song ) and Call the Shots although that's kind of dull
