The Brits is more about giving people a pat on the pack for making the labels a load of money though isn't it? Although I do LOVE the Coldplay album, I think they've made a massive return to form personally!

Good point actually... I'm not that familiar with BMTH to be honest, but for a young British rock band to be making such a big splash is probably worth a mention!

Amy's not up for Best Album though? But yes, its a ridiculous nomination and one that seems to imply that there aren't five female artists in the UK worthy of mention this year. If I was Ellie Goulding I'd be pretty p*ssed off!
