January 10, 201312 yr So no nom for Pink either. Oh well I only have a vague interest in the Killers and Mumford & Sons getting awards. If the list of performees is dire, than I shan't watch at all.
January 10, 201312 yr How on Earth can Amy Winehouse be eligible? Last year she appeared on Nas' Cherry Wine and a live album was released - both doing nothing in the charts. I love Amy and her music, but honestly it can't be right!
January 10, 201312 yr Who's Cat Power? Sorry if I'm being ignorant but how is she there, over P!nk? Weird. I know the BRITS have never been about the success, hence BFL yearly nod in "Best British Female", but at least I and others had heard of BFL :lol:

January 10, 201312 yr First time I think that they've got it pretty much spot on for the "Best British Single" award. Adele will probs win though. Hoping that Rudimental can somehow storm to victory though.
January 10, 201312 yr From OK_Magazine "We've also heard that Robbie Williams, @emelisande, mumford & sons, Ben Howard and Muse are also set to perform at @BRITAwards on feb 20th!"

January 10, 201312 yr Leona Lewis overlooked. :( Expected, but still so disapointed with that. Before Glassheart was released I thought 2013 would finally be her year to win. I'd say maybe next year, but doubt she'll have a new album out in time to be recognised for 2014 either. :| Calvin Harris for Best Male. Emeli Sande for Best Female. Ben Howard for British Breakthrough. Mumford & Sons for British Group. Coldplay for British Live Act. Adele's 'Skyfall' for British Single. Emeli's 'OVOE' for British Album. Frank Ocean for International Male. Rihanna for International Female. The Killers for International Group. :D Edited January 10, 201312 yr by Karma
January 10, 201312 yr I get less and less excited about this every year :( that's a fairly good set of nominations, potential for surprises as well, hopefully this year won't be as predictable as the last. Anyway Thinks in bold/wants in italics: British Male Solo Artist (Could see Ben Howard potentially being a dark horse here, in fact, after reading that he's performing, edited :P ) Ben Howard Calvin Harris Olly Murs Plan B Richard Hawley British Female Solo Artist (Total WTF at Amy Winehouse, complete waste of a slot. Would love for Jessie or Paloma to surprise like Laura did, but its not gonna happen) Amy Winehouse Bat For Lashes Emeli Sande Jessie Ware Paloma Faith British Breakthrough Act (This is public voted right? I can't imagine the other nominees are well known enough :( ) Alt-J Ben Howard Jake Bugg Jessie Ware Rita Ora British Group (If Muse couldn't win it in 2009, they sure as hell don't deserve it this year) Alt-J Mumford & Sons Muse One Direction The XX British Live Act (What an AMAZING category :wub: ) Coldplay Mumford & Sons Muse The Rolling Stones The Vaccines British Single (Hmmm, with no big boyband, this is much more wide open than normal) Adele - "Skyfall" Alex Clare - "Too Close" Coldplay ft.

January 10, 201312 yr These BRITs seem like they could be better than last year's (not difficult), the performers seem more interesting and most of the nominations are pretty on point bar the occasional anomaly (Winehouse / Cat Power). Surprised 1D haven't been nominated for best British single, sadly could see James winning that because it's always just a contest of the act with the biggest fanbase isn't it :( Edited January 10, 201312 yr by Bré
January 10, 201312 yr RED: Who I think. BLUE: Who I want. PURPLE: BOTH. British Male Solo Artist Ben Howard Calvin Harris Olly Murs Plan B Richard Hawley NOTE: I think this is where the "upset" will occur. Ben will walk away with this I reckon. British Female Solo Artist Amy Winehouse Bat For Lashes Emeli Sande Jessie Ware Paloma Faith NOTE: Surely they're not going to snub her? British Breakthrough Act Alt-J Ben Howard Jake Bugg Jessie Ware Rita Ora NOTE: POOR. BRAVE. RITA. I was stuck between Jake and Ben for this one. But just 'coz he's from Nottingham, I'm going with Jake :P British Group Alt-J Mumford & Sons Muse One Direction The XX NOTE: The XX are the underdogs. I think they'll be the ones to win if Mumford don't... British Live Act Coldplay Mumford & Sons Muse The Rolling Stones The Vaccines NOTE: Any of these, bar The Vaccines, could realistically win. British Single Adele - "Skyfall" Alex Clare - "Too Close" Coldplay ft. Rihanna - "Princess of China" DJ Fresh ft. Rita Ora - "Hot Right Now" Emeli Sandé - "Next to Me" Florence + the Machine - "Spectrum" James Arthur - "Impossible" Jessie J - "Domino" Labrinth ft.

John Newman - "Feel the Love" Stooshe - "Black Heart" NOTE: I get the feeling Adele will get this. But like I said earlier, personal opinions of the tracks to one side, I think it's the most perfect list we could possibly get. MasterCard British Album Alt-J - An Awesome Wave Emeli Sandé - Our Version of Events Mumford & Sons - Babel Paloma Faith - Fall to Grace Plan B - iLL Manors NOTE: NuBrits Sweetheart, will win this. Mumford & Sons deserve it too. Although any of them 5 could win... International Male Solo Artist Bruce Springsteen Frank Ocean Gotye Jack White Michael Bublé NOTE: I'd have thought this would be an easy victory for Frank... International Female Solo Artist Alicia Keys Cat Power Lana Del Rey Rihanna Taylor Swift NOTE: Could go to either LDR, Rihanna or Taylor. But I'm going to remain optimistic and say RiRi will win, again. International Group Alabama Shakes The Black Keys fun. The Killers The Script NOTE: Between The Black Keys & fun., the others don't stand a chance. EDIT: Ohhhh which are the fan voted ones? That could be the deciding point to a few of these. I know the British Single is...

January 10, 201312 yr A shame Swedish House Mafia aren't up for international group... Excellent to see Jessie Ware nominated for breakthrough award and nice for Ben Howard to get two too, real chance of winning at least one of them. Deserved nom for Hawley too.
January 10, 201312 yr Absolutely great list for British Breakthrough Act. Jake is great Jessie is great. Alt-J are really interesting guys. Ben has a good potential Rita Ora...I almost don't know her records at all but she's popular already...so really interesting nomination. British Single Great list. Yes, I'm fan of him and I'd like to see a new Robbie's win so I'm not so objective but I think he has a chance to win for 2 reasons: 1) He will perform at the show. You know, usually performers get awards, it's not a secret. 2) New design of award reminds me Candy's cover. LOL But for more objectivity I'd say single of Labrinth feat.Sande is the best in this list. That's ironically they both faced in chart 2 month ago :) By the way, he said to vote for Olly in Best Male =) "Really chuffed that Candy has made it into the Best Single nominations at this year's BRITs," Robbie said of news. "I've been coming to the show for so long, it's great at this point to have a song recognised from Take The Crown. I'll be there on the night, it's always fun. As for Best Male, you gotta vote Olly Murs - my tour mate". But the problem is Richard Hawley. His album was one of my favourites of 2012 so I'm going to vote for him even if nobody vote for him =)) Edited January 10, 201312 yr by Better Man
January 10, 201312 yr EDIT: Ohhhh which are the fan voted ones? That could be the deciding point to a few of these. I know the British Single is... British Single and British Breakthrough Act. Historically, British Live Act also was, but that may have changed this year as it's not been awarded since 2009.
