Black Rose Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 And so it's the time of year when the 2nd worst musical awards shortlist comes out (the 1st being the MTV 'European' Music Awards). And it appears that the NME doesn't like Coldplay as the album is up for Worst-Album of the year award: Britney Spears – 'Circus' Coldplay – 'Viva La Vida Or Death And All His Friends' Jonas Brothers – 'A Little Bit Longer' Razorlight – 'Slipway Fires' Scouting For Girls – 'Scouting For Girls' Everybody get onto http://www.nme.com/awardsvote/21/ and vote for anyone else but Coldplay. I suggest Scouting for Girls ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
busybeeburns Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 They were only a stepping stone for greater things anyway. Plus if you're going to make a decent magazine make it glossy ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mimixxx Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 All the nominations came from the public, not NME itself. What has happened here is; we've all been too busy voting for Guy and Chris in the sexiest male and forgot the actual awards. Whilst ateasers and Musers have been voting for themselves and against us en masse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kackie Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 i don't mind too much because a lot of the things on the shortlist I don't like. At least Razorlight was on the worst list... what an overpackaged, overadvertised disappointment. Ugh. But we all knew the polling was a bit skewed by people who were cheating (we witnessed it!) so... I won't read much into it. Still though. Still. thank goodness they nominated some good people for things- Radiohead, Vampire Weekend,. But putting Noel Gallagher in the heroes section? Ick.
