    Gutted that The Go Team didn't win. Haven't heard an album that makes me grin like a loon in ages...and in fairness, the KC's had a good 'un out as well...

    Go Team album is pretty crazy, like 20 different styles of music thrown into a metal trashcan and rattled around.

    I bought the Go Team's album last week on the recommendation of friend and tbh, I thought it was pretty poor.

    With the exception of maybe 1 good song, the rest just sounds like "Sesame Street: The Soundtrack"

    Did anybody see KT Tunstall's performance at the awards? Very clever and impressive I thought.

    Each to their own. It's not one you're gonna listen to for it's lyricial depth...and I'll grant you, it's not exactly one that rewards repeated listening.

    On the other hand - and i'll stop being an evangelist for 'em here - put it on when a party is in full swing, and you'll feel another side to it!
