The rock group are also up for best group, rock act and song.

 

'Amazing night'

 

British acts in contention include best group nominees Keane, Robbie Williams - up for best pop act - and Mercury Prize winners the Arctic Monkeys, shortlisted in the 'alternative' category.

 

The Monkeys are also up for best UK and Ireland act alongside Corinne Bailey Rae, the Kooks, Lily Allen and Muse. "It's going to be an amazing night," said Timberlake in a statement. "I'm working on several ideas with MTV at the moment and there are some great new interactive parts to the show."

We already had a thread for the MTV EMA 2006 http://www.coldplaying.com/forum/showthread.php?t=34400 :P

but this one is only about four nominations for Red Hot Chili Peppers!

And who cares about the red hot chili peppers?

 

Very overated band whose last album is all the same song over and over.

nope, it is the best album of this year so far man!

not for me,but by many music critics

Name one music critic who thinks that Stadium Arcadium is the BEST album of the year so far.

i read it in local newspapper! i dont know any music critic

The Peppers are amazing. I think Stadium Arcadium is the best album of the year, do you even have it??

I do have it, although I ain't played it for ages because if you listen to it for more than 20 minutes you think the cd player is fucking around because it sounds like the same song over and over and over and over and over, like a monkey with a miniature cymbal, the joy of repetition really is in you.

 

If they could out the crap to put it onto 1 disc, than it would be a good album

your music taste is crap

So your saying liking radiohead, muse, coldplay, the beatles, RHCP's By The Way Era is saying that all those bands are rubbish.

 

Fine by you :P

 

But the fact remains that Stadium Arcadium is one of the mose overrated albums of the year, even more overrated than the Arctic Monkey's album.

 

And also the fact remains that the European Music Awards which was supposed to be for European Artists don't mean sod-all nowadays.

okay,okay! no argue Dave
