Based on albums, and originality, not on some studio enhanced one-off piece of shite like so much of what gets attention at other music awards. Incredibly diverse shortlist of 12 artists including astounding newcomer Burial (bit like the artist Banksy, no one knows who he is, didn’t turn up, all about the music) and a spell-binding performance from Adele. A band called Elbow won (been around since 1991 with 4 brilliant albums to their credit.) And presented by Jools Holland, my hero, who, along with a handful of others, has been at the forefront throughout his career in showcasing real talent and diversity in music. Pure bliss. Great article here for those who want their faith restored and a clip of Elbow receiving their award: drunk as skunks but thrilled! http://www.telegraph.co.uk/arts/main.jhtml?xml=/arts/2008/09/06/bmmercurys106.xml http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/newstopics/celebritynews/2713771/Elbow-declared-winner-of-Mercury-Prize.html Diva and fellow music lovers, had my faith restored last night with the Mercury Prize awards.

They're not given based on TALENT, they never have been! You want awards given on talent, watch the AMA's or the Grammy Awards and bitch about those choices. These awards are based on request and air time on the FEW video shows MTV has left. Quite frankly, I think it's absurd MTV is giving awards based on anything about music, you never see MUSIC on MUSIC TELEVISION anymore! It's all Jackass and Cribs and shit. btw, thank you, thank you, thank you, geronimo... I have been trying to remember Cilmi's name since I left the UK a couple weeks ago. I saw her commercials and she's amazing. I love the group of chick singers coming out of the UK lately... Amy, of course, Duffy, Adele, and Gabrielle Cilmi! :D See, these aren’t the MTV Who Is the Most Talented Awards… they’re the Video Music Awards.

Not "best recovery" or "had a bad time" or "made a good video five years ago." "Piece of Me" was... pedestrian. It wasn't particularly well made, had nothing innovative about it and was just repeating the same "leave me alone" drivel that Michael Jackson's been going on about for years. This is the _BEST_ video of the entire year? Oh, and Brand is the same asshole who thought it would be a hilarious joke to parade around dressed up as Bin Laden on September 12, 2001. Oh ho ho. He's nothing but a dull, arrogant prick and I guarantee the people who find him hilarious would find him disgusting if his politics didn't match theirs.

I didn't see her zombie performance for the show opener though. Given that I am way over the hill compared with you young whippersnappers, I fell asleep immediately after Rihanna's performance ended. Not gonna say one negative word about Britney - I'm glad she seems to have returned to the land of "somewhat normal" (for her I guess). She does look fabulous.

It was awkward and lame. No one can save bad writing. What's with the cheesy 'Thriller' video extras for Rihanna? Overdone. She has a good voice she doesn't need to be surrounded by a sea of glow sticks. Russell is fabulous. Not sure if he wrote his own monologue but sounds like he was sticking to somewhat safe material; understandable when it's his first time hosting. What, some teenagers got a sore ass over what he said? If the Jonas brothers are that sensitive they need to relax. It gets much worse the more the more fame increases and the longer they stick around. I adore British humor (Eddie Izzard!). Britney’s skit was not remotely funny. It was awkward and lame.
