British Male Solo
James Morrison

British Female Solo
MIA

British Breakthrough Act
The Ting Tings - I hate them more than anything in the world but I have this feeling some plonker out there thinks they're the best thing since sliced bread!

British Group
Take That - Although I'd rather Elbow got it

British Live Act
Coldplay

British Single
Coldplay: Viva La Vida - Love that song!

British Album
The Ting Tings: We Started Nothing - again I'd rather Elbow got this one. I picked up their album for 50p at Woolies on the day they were closing down & it was a wise "investment" (lol) - good album

International Album
MGMT: Oracular Spectacular - although I'm really liking the new stuff by Kings of Leon

International Male Solo
Kanye West

International Female Solo
Katy Perry

International Group
Kings Of Leon

Thanks for all coming and having a go folks. I know it's another month away yet, but I saw the nominations show the other night, and we all know I've a memory like a sieve, so I had to put this up while I remembered!

Good luck you lot and I'll put mine up over the weekend or so, gonna meet myself coming back this week I think.
