Prince Myshkin Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 Brit's, Grammy's, Mercury's, NME's, MOBO's, Ivor Novello's? Which would you least want to win? You can specify individual categories too. And you can debate the meaningless/meaningfulness of awards, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmmaLouiseSmyth Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 I always like the mercury awards. For the most part I really admire the artists who are nominated, so it would be very awesome to win one of those. Ya know, if I was anyway musically talented :laugh3: I'd least like to win an NME award, haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only thing about winning the Mercury prize is it's supposed to be unlucky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Destrokk Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 It's nice to win an award, but I'd rather people tell me how great I am on a daily basis of my musical talents. Which is what people usually are told before having an award. Basically its overrated and its just a random metal object that you get by opinions of people who they think are "the masters of what is talent". Talent is also overrated. I enjoy watching the Grammys (and make Dee watch them with me) and sometimes I cry when people I admire win awards but not because they won them but because they were even nominated or are even on tv by doing something they love. And then all of the popular artist of the year are all together and they take music really serious for that night. Sadly most of the performances suck but its the thought that counts for me. In short, I don't care. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James. Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 The only thing about winning the Mercury prize is it's supposed to be unlucky. Really? I've never heard that! :surprised: I was thinking Mercury award, but winning a Brit or a Grammy would still be cool (even though they are a bit less meaningful these days). I like to think of NME awards as sort of joke awards, so winning one of those would be something to laugh about at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well then the most talented people (which won't be me) won't win :charming: leaving the chances better for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tnspieler1012 Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 I suppose the Grammy's are typically recognised as the biggest, so dat. Though altogether they're all pretty irrelevant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I heard the Grammy's got really bad rep these days. I've never watched or followed it though. I know they recently dropped their Best Rock Instrumental award. That's lame.

Corkus Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 Preferred to win - Grammy. It's universal, not specific to artists from a certain country or continent. Least preferred - NME award. Yay, I won a fan-voted award because all my fans are 12-year-olds who have no lives and all ditch school to spend 24 hours a day spamming a poll on NME's website. No thanks. Well, unless it's the "Hottest Male" award. I'll gladly accept that one. :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know they recently dropped their Best Rock Instrumental award. That's lame. I remember the Simpsons made fun of it 20 years ago, sorry for the Spanish: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yuUa7c5MDtw Homer gives the Grammy to the room service guy as a tip because he doesn't have money, room service guy is excited until he realises it's a Grammy, throws it into the street, and some guy tells them not to throw their trash into the street so he throws it back. I watched the Grammy's for the first time this year, and it's kindof hard to put into words how ridiculous and random the whole affair seemed. There's a general consensus that it's simply down to the most popular who wins, and that's true in some categories however it's like they try to mix it up with some "critically acclaimed" less popular artist who isn't actually critically acclaimed at all, but only in the minds of whatever out of touch middle-aged white guys think is hip with the kids nowadays.

The Final Track Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 Even a nomination for the Mercury Prize would be amazing. Otherwise the Polaris Music Prize (Nordic musicians) would be great, and the NME one not at all (the acutal prize is so ugly). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems like most wouldn't like an NME award and I agree, it's meaningless and more superficial than any other award, they have a freakin Cool List every year for gods sake.
