"Show You How"-The Killers

I think I may have "The Seldom Seen Kid" by Elbow in there. I'm not positive, though.

Yes! Jónsi & Alex?

Daft Punk vs. Massive Attack

Well, in most cases, the two category ones contained the two choices that actually got more than one vote. That's how that came to be. The remaining categories either have a REALLY clear winner as it is (meaning they were the only ones who got more than one vote and took basically all of the votes), or they were full of one-vote nominees. The latter will be scratched. You'll find out what happened when I hold the awards ceremony.

^ That's not necessarily true. :wink:
-
...Wait, so is this to say that AM's new album and Alex's solo album will be released around the same time?

User name: Coldplay references. I wanted to combine two Coldplay songs into one name. I was really into "Violet Hill" at the time (I still love that song, honestly), and I thought "Sparks" sounded cool after it, so I got violetsparks. Avatar: Guy Garvey, frontman of Elbow. I'm pretty much in love with Elbow. And Guy Garvey. Especially Guy Garvey. So yeah. That makes sense. :bomb: Sig: The pic is Chris Wolstenholme from Muse, which reflects my love for Muse (as they're my favorite), who is guarding all the CPing keeps I made in Christina's Keeper Thread. There's also some personal links and a link to a CPing user group that I dedicated to Chris Wolstenholme. :wacky:

Three ballots already. Thank you, ladies! :D

OK, sorry guys. I edited the date from the 7th to the 14th. That's what I meant to say, as giving you all of two days to make up your mind is highly impractical.

OK, guys. Here's the deal. I've got all the votes and stuff tallied. This will prove to be a tad interesting. Right now, we are merely concerning ourselves with the categories that have a couple of nominees close in the running for the same award. The rest either have a predetermined winner or will be scratched due to many nominees with one vote. Your votes for these categories are very important, as it determines the winner. Here's what we've got. Song of the Year "Sprawl II (Mountains Beyond Mountains)"-Arcade Fire "Zebra"-Beach House Best Debut Album "Broken Bells"-Broken Bells "Happiness"-Hurts Album of the Year (United States) "High Violet"-The National "This is Happening"-LCD Soundsystem Album of the Year (United Kingdom) "Happiness"-Hurts "Plastic Beach"-Gorillaz Album of the Year (Rest of Europe) "Go"-Jónsi "Subiza"-Delorean Music Event of the Year Arcade Fire's webcast live @ MSG Glastonbury 2010 Best Live Act/Tour of the Year Muse Arcade Fire Music Disaster/Disgrace to Music Misusage of autotune Herbie Hancock's cover of "Imagine" Peter Gabriel's cover of "Mirrorball" "The Suburbs"-Arcade Fire Jedward Best Group (Europe + North America) The National Arcade Fire Best B-Side "An Easy Life"-Broken Bells "Too Many Flesh Suppers"-Los Campesinos!

It's that simple. ♦ IMPORTANT: The deadline for all voting on these categories will be Monday, February 14, 2011 at 5:30 pm (GMT -6). If your votes aren't in by this time, they will not count. No exceptions. ♦ It won't be until after all voting is done that I reveal the results of the election. I will try to do this either late Monday evening or sometime Tuesday. In fact, Tuesday seems more likely at this point, as my schedule on Tuesdays is minimal. What are you waiting for? Cast your votes. Spread the word. Tell your friends. Let's make this WoM Awards as successful as possible. :smiley:

Hey, there are a lot of things I don't know. I'd cut the girl some slack, if you ask me.

"Square One"-Coldplay

I reviewed Bernard's mixtape for MTE 5 because his partner never did, and he had put a single mix of "Something Good Can Work" on it. I remember that track being one of my favorites. Frightened Rabbit

"We're Going to Be Friends"-The White Stripes

Ohhhhh. :sick: Yeah, that sucks. :(

Well, I'm not literally a new listener, as I've listened to them before, but I'm new in the sense that I'm like, "OMG, I REALLY LOVE THEM," and I'm getting into their music a lot more. I only realized yesterday how much of a genius Guy Garvey is as a lyricist. :dead:
