Some very interesting lists there - perhaps we should have a Brit for the one who gets nearest the result!

I expect Leona and Take That to dominate the awards.

Kaisers will win best live act and Kylie best international female, though i'd like Rihanna to win

I think it's pretty obvious Rihanna will win Int Female - she deserves it really.

LOL, Take That best live band? That would make these awards an even bigger joke than they already are. Muse should walk that award.

Can't believe they got Ozzy to present and yet they aren't even letting him perform. He released an album this year and everything!

LOL I think the other way round - if TT are beaten by Muse it would be a joke - same if Girls Aloud beat them! Actually I can't believe the Sugababes aren't in this category.

Oh please, Take That are a run-of-the-mill pop band aimed at teenage girls. Their live performances offer nothing more than that. Muse play their own instruments, have a tonne of rock n' roll attitude and put on fantastic stage shows. What do Take That offer that Muse don't?

I would have thought so too, but we both know that in reality that simply isn't going to happen.

Just reading the lists and nominees, I can safely say that I hate just about everything.

I would like Muse and Bat for Lashes to win something, but realistically it's just so obviously never going to happen.
Not the way that the industry is geared right now, and what they want to promote.
