Now that we have the official Grammy nominations (which tend to be quite similar in flavour to the BRIT's), I wondered if anyone wanted to venture there predictions as to who will be nominated (and maybe even win) come February?

I'll post mine in a second.

She won't be. The nominees were announced today and she never made it.

[21stCenturyBoy]

Ah I just found that!

In which case, AlunaGeorge please!

Never going to happen, I doubt She'd be interested, therefore they won't give this type of award on that basis

[1992]

I hope Wings gets nominated for Best Brittish Single, and Little Mix get nominated for either best breakthrough or best group.

If they aren't nominated for either of the above 3 I would really disappointed.

I know what you mean, but she is very much worth of it

Absolutely

[GlassBalloon]

Honestly thought Gabrielle Aplin would've been a dead cert for Critics Choice but how or never, I LOVE AlunaGeorge so was very pleased but surprised to see them nominated! I'd love for them to win it, I think they're very fresh

[Makson]

At least Lana won't get snubbed by the Brits for a Best International Female nom.

True. The great lady was offered that award previously, but she turned it down, as she would have been required to turn up, and put in a performance.
