It’s on ITV tonight from 8:30. Thought I’d start a thread for our annual shouting at the TV together experience of it.
Any predictions? I’m wondering if they mute people laying into the Tories or saying free Palestine?
Commissioned a piece ahead of the awards about the lack of credit for the songwriters
Why don’t the BRIT’s champion underground music?
It’s probably going to be Olly Murs, little mix, Calvin Harris & The Last Dinner party.
Same shit every year.
Bring Back Mick Fleetwood
Because it’s a popular music awards show put on by the British record industry’s trade association.
…and Sam Fox of course
‘Popular’ music is a bit boring and stale now isn’t it give or take one or two artists?
Annie Lennox for best female and Paul Weller for best male
Sorry but RAYE is shite
It shouldn’t be on a Saturday. They’re just doing it because they want to get drunk!
Last year was a little more diverse but yeh you are pretty much correct
It’s just the big sellers really. It’s a bit of fun
She seemed sound in the Louis Theroux interview.
It’s going to boil the ring wing presses piss just for existing so gotta give it that.
The Brit Awards aren’t going to do much about crediting songwriters because the watching audience doesn’t care. If people wanted to see songwriters get on stage and be awarded they’d watch the Ivor Novello awards, which nobody in history has ever done.
Best male haircut
It’s an ITV light entertainment variety show and best watched remembering that.
They used to do a Brits legend award. Classic influencial bands like New order, black Sabbath, iron maiden, Depeche Mode, Led Zeppelin never won it. Spice girls won it twice proved the point.
It isn’t if you know where to look!
I know I’m getting old because my experience of the BRIT Awards just being on the telly in the family home is no longer so much
A lovely looking lady is performing a song on the stage
MOTHER: Who’s that?
I look up to the screen and see a woman who I definitely fancy, the content of at least six of whose music videos I could effortlessly summarise complete with accurate time stamps on a concise single page document within half a working day.
MANCHES: Nah dunno who that is
and it’s now more like

MANCHES: Nah dunno who that is but also my back hurts
MOTHER: There’s some Deep Freeze cold patches in the bathroom
MANCHES: Nah I used the last one the other week
MOTHER: You should’ve said. I could’ve put em on my list
Do you think movie goers don’t care about best director awards? Or reading the books that inspired movies?
Person who has blown the most roofs off? (Probably Taylor Swift with her private jet contributions to carbon emissions tbf)
