Seriously now, the Brits know they are totally full of shit, right? Across a paltry twelve categories (ignoring 'outstanding contribution' because that's slightly different) in the OCEAN of current music, they could only find nine acts to give awards to, two of which were Paul "irrelvant" Weller and Iron Maiden?! I mean I like Iron Maiden and everything but they are not what you'd call a cutting edge live act are they? 'Ooh they've got Eddie! That's never happened before!"

What utter, utter, utter c0ck. And what in the name of self-congratulatory b0ll0cks is a "critics choice" award ffs?
