[Closed] Brit Awards Thread

Has a pissed up Gallagher brother threatened to stab anyone yet ?

Just started watching it - only up to florence and the machine.

If I live to be a million years old I will never see the attraction in that shrieking freak. Totally shit.

Oh, and:

iv) Have Coldplay swallowed a New Order album or something?

watching under duress - is this the best we have to offer ? Olly Murs, Noel Gallagher, Ed Sheeren(??)

As for Corden ......what a tw 4 t

I have a stinking cold and my hearing is a bit off but they all sound pretty ropey.

Usual rubbish presenting and god the awards look like something you would find in Poundland.

Jessy J, I would ruin her. 😈

One Direction WTF 😯

I wonder what their inspiration was when they wrote that song? 🙄

I have given up. All far too dull. I thought Bruno M looked like a reincarnation of Little Richard but without the talent...

I don't get all the hype surrounding ed sheeran. Utter dog sh1te. Another James Blunt.

Make your own Jessie J doll by tippexing the face of an old Darth Vader figure

Wow Ed Sheerhan best male and Coldplay best band. The Bed Wetters have taken over the world.

At least Adele sounded a bit better. Shows how produced most of these artists are when even the auto tune struggles to make them sound ok.

Seems like a lean time for music generally. Perhaps due to the record labels being so risk averse in who they promote that they are mostly just generic pap.

Ed Sheerhan should stick to beat boxing in Hebbers

Sorry should have been clearer. There is lots of good original music out there. Little seems to make the Radio 1 playlisting and thus to these kind of award ceremonies.

The advent of YouTube and myfacebo etc means good music can be found but you do have to search through a lot of dross 1st.

God, listen to you lot, moany old moaners. 😆

It's a pop music award ceremony for pop music acts 🙄

honestly

You the correct spelling for Blunt is with a C

I'm not watching it, just reading comments on facebook saying how he's such a 'genius'. Where is this geniusness?

Honestly, genuine question

ha ha

she would destroy you !! More tricks than a butchers dog.

Who the **** would pick coldpoop over elbow. Oh, wait a minute. radio 2 award.

I just wrote f e c k and it was bleeped out automatically. Amazing what they can do these days.

Anyone else see the under age drinking? That little pretty boy from the bunch of boys group thing. That'll be in the papers tomorrow. I'd punch Corden in the eyeballs if i saw him... i think.

I'd watch that

+1 for punching Corden
Jesus Rhianna can`t sing live

Main entertainment of the night was when that bloke walked infront of Corden. Billy S, agree completely about that ginger bloke. Vaguely pleasant lift music that would be annoying after the 5th floor.

Coldplay - four bedwetting Cliff Richard fans, really, REALLY angry that prices have gone up in the tuck shop.

There is still lots of good music out there, you just need to go and find it.

Hmm, possibly. But even the good stuff sounds like a pale, hollow pastiche of what's gone before.

When was the last game changing step forward in popular music?
Nothing has been genuinely original since people started using two turntables and a microphone and sampling the results.

Before that? Synths. And before that? The electric guitar, which came about through the need of players to be heard above the big bands of the 30's and 40's.

Three genuine innovations in 80 years - can we have something new and exciting now, please?

You're a loon. She's the best vocalist I've heard in years.

+1 for punching Corden

JC is brilliant at this; his slapdown of Jessie J was masterful, complete professional.

I don't get all the hype surrounding ed sheeran. Utter dog sh1te. Another James Blunt.

Ed Sheeran isn't my cup of tea, but he's very, very good at what he does. You could've heard a pin drop when he performed. Not particularly liking an act doesn't mean I can't appreciate the talent.

Anyone else need disagreeing with? (-:

Also,

WTF are you all doing watching a programme that you hate, just so that you can sit around pissing and moaning about it? Change the bloody channel.

Corden is still shite (he is just not funny)

George Michael is pissed??

honestly

I do like that fact that emsz is usually the most grown-up person on here

You'd have a go at jessie J though !?
(err, whoever she is 😳 )

So will Geoege Michael be driving his car into a shop on his way home tonight then?

Wtf just happened??? Feel sorry for cordon having to do that to adele! Shit directing/production! What would it matter if it ran over 5 mins??

George Michael is pissed??

Smacked off his tits more like ??

Albarn really can't sing. Blur have some good tunes but he murders them.

But this is Sooo much better than her

What happened to All Bran! That was bad, I like Blur 🙁

How shit was that ending. Like a bunch of pissed guys in the pub.

Good christ.
Have Blur always been dreadful, or have they made a special effort? DA told the band to pick up the tempo at the beginning; ripped on Speed?

Bassist from Blur/Presenter from Wonders of the Universe?

Nope.

Presenter from Wonders of the Universe = keyboardist from D:Ream.

Seriously guys? The Whoohwooo song was the only musically uplifting moment of the evening,

I thought All Bran was struggling with low mic volume but he was shocking.

The Whoohwooo song

Song 2. My all-time favourite Blur song. Shocking performance, bloody awful.

Philistines (sp?) the lot of you, bloody love Blur. He's got the tune on ITV2 - just about.

I thought All Bran was struggling with low mic volume

I think he was struggling with what'd just disappeared up his nose.

Philistines (sp?) the lot of you, bloody love Blur.

There's a difference between liking a band and liking a performance.

Yeah fair point. Last time I saw them was at Glasto and it was one of the best gigs of my life; however I expect the spectacle and my three day bender previously probably helped my opinion of his tunefulness!

" Have Blur always been dreadful"
They were always crapper than pulp.

Seen blur loads of times now. By the time they're playing song 2, parklife and girls and boys the crowd's normally so into the event that Albarn hitting the notes doesn't matter. It's the complete performance. Coxon's guitar work is cracking.

however I expect the spectacle and my three day bender previously probably helped my opinion of his tunefulness!

Not at all. They were great at Glasto (and Hyde Park) but sh 1 t tonight.

I quite liked the ramshackle element to blur's performance. Intentional or not it had a bit of an edge at least and I always forget just how good a guitarist (and vocalist) Coxon really is.

Coldplay - slick but uninspiring.
Florence - perfunctory (loved Lungs but struggling to even admire Ceremonials).
Ed Sheeran - decent although I'm not a fan.
Olly Murs bloke - bit shit.
Adele - good vocal but oddly affected/stylised in places.
Rhianna - someone please shoot her and put her out of her (and our) misery.

Shame Radio 2 run the band category. Would have liked Enter Shikari or Pulled Apart by horses fans to do a 'Cavendish' and get a massive block vote going.

slainte ➡ rob

Just watching it on the news, some ginger hobbo won something and the middle class cheese makers got something - outstanding contribution? Wowsers, glad I missed all that.

PABH would have livened it up .....yyyeahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh buddy

Am I the only person on earth who thinks Adele is in fact, shite? I just don't get it with her.

It's all been crap since the S-Club broke up anyway.
