Brit Nominations

Popjustice sums it all up nicely

The list of bands (both UK and International) makes for underwhelming reading, but I think the list of UK singles from 2007 is quite a reasonable reflection of what's been going on in British pop*:

Leona Lewis – Bleeding Love
Mika – Grace Kelly
Take That – Shine
Kaiser Chiefs – Ruby
Sugababes – About You Now
Mark Ronson Ft Amy Winehouse – Valerie
Kate Nash – Foundations
The Hoosiers – Worried About Ray
James Blunt – 1973
Mutya Buena – Real Girl

Personally, I'd have trouble picking a winner out of Take That and Sugababes. The only truly mediocre song on that list is Mutya and her string sample.
