Das Mercury Music Prize
Who does everyone want to win and who does everyone think will win? Those that don't care or want to moan about such prizes/popular culture etc need not respond as I can't be bothered to read it.
I want M.I.A to win as if it wasn't for Sufjan and possibly the forthcoming Fiery Furnaces record she'd have a pretty clear path to best record of the year in my opinion.
Secondly the Go! Team as it's still as crazily fun now as it was last year (best music for musical chairs ever as well).
Neither of those stand even a remote chance though so I'll go for Antony as my third even though he's hardly a UK act.
As long as the "we're splitting up after two albums" Kaiser Chiefs or Coldplay don't win I'll be happy. Even KT is kinda cool.
