Yet another award!

 

 

The Arctic Monkeys, Amy Winehouse and Madonna were among the winners at the 52nd Ivor Novello Awards today.

 

 

 

Newlywed Amy scooped Best Contemporary Song for her self-penned hit Rehab, and the Sheffield-based Arctic Monkeys collected the Best Album Award for Whatever People Say I Am That's What I'm Not.

 

 

 

But the band's single, When The Sun Goes Down, written by frontman Alex Turner missed out on the award for Best Song Musically and Lyrically - which was handed to songwriter Scott Matthews for his song Elusive.

great news.

it s definitely the best album of 2006 n i m glad i m not the only one to say it...

Great news for them. ^_^

 

The Ivor Novello awards are very sought after, and well thought of, so by them winning this, it's very good news. ^_^

I'm very pleased for Alex. The Ivor Novello awards always appreciated The Smiths (Morrissey/Marr) songwriting talents back in the 1980s more than the public or the BRITs as fellow songwriters do seem to have superior taste than Music Business Executives or the general public.
