Just watching them on the BRITS - not heard of them before, but very likeable - a lot of Prince in his Purple Rain era.

The wife was telling me while we watched it, apparently the music press absolutely slate them at every opportunity. She thinks it's mainly down to one of the band having a famous (sic) mother-she's on loose women.

Never heard of them before but they appealed to me (Prince in his Purple Rain/Parade/Sign O' The Times appealed to me).
I wish someone had put a sniper on Chris Martin though. His tribute to the late, great George Michael was tragically bad.

I'm not a ColdPlay fan - I've always thought that Chris Martin sounds like somebody just died. When he appeared to do that tribute last night, I thought it was strangely fitting!

1975 seemed OK.

I am failing to understand why James Arthur isn't at the end of a Dole queue though from the clips they showed last night.

Absolutely chronic, can't believe how him and Coldplay have become so popular.

Never heard of them but here's the BBC's take on the subject.

Never heard of them until a couple of days ago.

Taking a big chance taking the piss in these kind of countries, could be thrown in jail for years.
