December 29, 20177 yr Lorde - Liability Lorde - Green Light Paramore - Fake Happy Pvris - What's Wrong? Vera Blue - Lady Powers I think Vera Blue should be fine, similar vein to Eves The Behavior who's in this forum and not a million miles from Marina/Lorde sort of thing! I'll change if not but didn't want all my nominations to be so obvious as Lorde :lol:
December 29, 20177 yr Alice Merton - No Roots Imagine Dragons - Believer New Politics - One Of Us Portugal. The Man - Feel It Still The Revivalists - Wish I Knew You I think the only one up in the air is Alice Merton (maybe The Revivalists as well?) but other than that same strategy as last year. When in doubt, look at the US Alternative radio charts!
