PJ list is pretty good. "Biology", "Destroy", "I Said Never Again", "Push The Button" all worthy winners. I actually think "Valentine" is the best record on the list!

ALSO, THE MUSE ALBUM IS REALLY GREAT. Except kind of towards the end, and one song in the middle, it's a bit rubbidge, but it's good, yes. I wouldn't mind Sway winning as he is very funny. The Editors album has one good song on it and is indie. I don't know what you're all hearing in that Scritti Politti album, it is wretchedly awful and Mr Gartside should take a long hard look at himself and be embarrassed at the laudation. The Hawley one is clearly bestest. If Thom Yorke wins.

If I liked that last Guillemots single, will I like the album?
