Posted September 12, 201311 yr For the 11th year running, Popjustice are running their £20 Music Prize, which let's be honest, has been rubbish since Girls Aloud domination ended. Here is the shortlist though, what do you think will or want to win? CHVRCHES - "The Mother We Share" Disclosure ft. AlunaGeorge - "White Noise" Duke Dumont ft. A*M*E - "Need U (100%)" Girls Aloud - "Something New" Little Mix - "DNA" Mutya Keisha Siobhan - "Flatline" Olly Murs - "Dear Darlin'" One Direction - "Kiss You" Petula Clarke - "Cut Copy Me" Robbie Williams - "Candy" The Saturdays - "Gentleman" VV Brown - "The Apple" Obviously I'd love a Girls Aloud win as an end to their career but I think it'll probably go to MKS. It's a fairly strong shortlist overall, with the exceptions of "Need U", "Dear Darlin'" and "Candy" (plus "Cut Copy Me" and "The Apple" which I haven't heard).
September 12, 201311 yr Girls Aloud MUST win this (although I'd also take 1D of course). Nice way to top off their career, especially as Popjustice love them so much.
September 12, 201311 yr I'd also like to see a Girls Aloud win! However I have a feeling that the people attending this, who'll be voting, will be leaning in favour towards a Mutya Keisha Siobhan win.
September 12, 201311 yr I'd love a White Noise win out of that lot, it's head and shoulders above the rest of them (half of which are painfully average as usual) but it's so obviously going to be MKS or Girls Aloud; it just depends which fanbase triumphs over the other.
September 12, 201311 yr Well tbf there's some really good picks there - CHVRCHES, Disclosure, Duke Dumont, and I like that VV Brown song too! 'Gentleman' is the only one i'd object to (i mean REALLY? lol) I remember Girls Aloud winning this prize like every year, so 'Something New' will almost definitely win going by that (either that or MKS). But yeah, GWON White Noise <3
September 12, 201311 yr I'm not massive on the list tbh, I'd only listen to about four of them regularly out of choice. Says a lot when Robbie is possibly my favourite. :ph34r:
September 12, 201311 yr Good shortlist this year. I'd say it's between 'Something New' and 'Flatline'.
September 12, 201311 yr Popjustice has some seriously shit taste at times, what the hell is Gentleman doing on there. I would go for Candy out of that somewhat unimpressive list.
September 12, 201311 yr Gentleman over What About Us? Really?! Something New or DNA is my fave out of those.
September 12, 201311 yr Lots of really good songs there (DNA, Kiss You, Cut Copy Me, The Mother We Share and Flatline), I'd LOVE DNA to win but I reckon Flatline or Something New has it in the bag.
September 12, 201311 yr 'White Noise' please. Although most of them would be acceptable winners (just not 'Gentleman', please) I've actually applied to be a 'judge' this year, always looked like fun.
September 12, 201311 yr Gentleman over What About Us? Really?! They really hate 'What About Us', but the 'Gentleman' inclusion is baffling as it is a car crash.
September 12, 201311 yr It should be Flatline so that they can double the profits of what they're making from the single.
September 12, 201311 yr White Noise would be my LAST choice of winner (or it might just edge this particular Sats song)
