In all honesty I don't really care about things like this. I know it's not for me. There is music that I enjoy, I know where to source it, and I fully accept some of it will never be main stream. In fact to be honest, I'm glad that's the case. I've long stopped listening to Radio One, and I don't watch MTV etc. I'd be hard pushed to name one number one record from the past 5 years. I'll not be watching, but if you're going to watch it, then I hope you enjoy it.

Do MTV still play music? I thought they specialised in teenage pregnancy...

 

I mean MTV / any of it's related channels (which may or may not play music), plus any that aren't run by MTV. Is The Box still going?

In fairness, there are some pretty good acts in there:

 

Laura Mvula, London Grammar, Rudimental, Lorde, Tom Odell & Arctic Monkeys have all released some good stuff this year. Despite not being in a genre that I appreciate at all, Lorde's Royals is a great pop song.

 

+ Disclosure and Daft Punk

 

But as you alluded to, liking anything that's popular is pretty much scoffed at on here!

People are being unrealistic if they've expecting the Brits to cover the plethora of bands mentioned in Off-Topic that no one has ever heard of.

 

To be honest in my post I was commenting on how out of touch I am and not how shite the people on the list are

I know i'm going to sound like an old bastard but I've not heard of the majority of them, Arctic Monkeys an exception. I'm not some avant garde hipster music listener either, i'm currently listening to Dire Straits!

I've gone from Radio 1 to Radio 2 to Radio 4 over the last few years

Here's a good idea. If you're not interested in a thread, don't write in it.

 

Oh and here's another blinder, make some threads about things you ARE interested in so this forum can be full of things other than negative drones.

 

Otherwise, well, it's just not fun is it?

 

Cheers. ;)

I'll switch over every 10 minutes in the hope of seeing James corden be shot in the face by a lunatic on stage.

 

Nope I would hope it happened before the show started, could you imagine what would happen if someone did it live on camera, no I'm sorry I want it to be done in a dark room where no one else is around.

he would be like a modern day Kurt Kobain if it happened live
