These 10 albums are nominated for a special award for Best British Album of the past 30 years. Which do you think should win?

Really perplexed by some of the nominees - Duffy is a total joke, I've never heard of Sade, and Keane and Travis!? You can tell this was selected by Radio 2 listeners...
but Oasis, Coldplay or the Verve to win.

yeah I sometimes forget Dido's British, I think it's because of how American the 'Thank You' video looks, plus the Eminem collaboration.

You haven't heard of Keane or Travis; or am I reading that wrongly? I thought both of those albums were outstanding... Voting for Keane.

I meant I wouldn't cite either of them as worthy of 'the best album in the past 30 years'. I like Keane's album...but it's just good. Not great.

I do think it's a bit ridiculous that it extends as far back as 30 years ago; but I think all of the albums on that list are (from what I know of them) fantastic.

Nothing in excess
|
These albums were handpicked from the last thirty years?
That's appalling, even for the BRIT awards.

Apparently so, by BBC Radio 2 listeners.

I think I'd go for Coldplay ... likewise though, I'm sure there could've been better choices ... who/what is/are Sade?

THIRTY YEARS worth of albums and this is what they come up with? Not denying some classics on that list [Oasis] but a lot of it is the same old white kid indie snobbery we saw penetrating those god awful best of decade lists.
keane r revolutionary lol Fuck off. |
