Anyway, before I even mention anything about the year of music that's just gone by, let's take a look at the award itself.
Last years award looked like it had taken inspiration the Come Outside aeroplane and this years...
Well, this years just needed to be made of styrofoam to really complete that 'build your own award' look. Whatever that thing at the top of it is, it looks like it could be easily slotted on and off the head, it just reminds me of the styrofoam aeroplanes you'd get in Christmas crackers or with a McDonald's happy meal. Maybe they're trying to link the aeroplane theme that seems to be going on with the design. Either way, the ridiculous design fits in with (no doubt) ridiculous winners - they get the award they deserve.
All the BRIT awards celebrates is artists who have sold the most or been the most controversial (which normally goes hand in hand). I don't doubt we'll see the likes of Miley Cyrus or Robin Thicke winning awards - whether at the BRITS or any other music award show - and where does that leave artists who actually deserve awards? Those that don't insult women or swing around naked to get attention but actually let their talent get them noticed. If that even happens these days.
As well as that, the limited amount of music genres that incorporated is shocking. Yes, there's a rock category but what about all the terms that come under rock or variations. Oh wait yes, they're all classed as 'pop' now, right?
Save yourself the hassle and do something else with the two hour slot the BRITS takes up. It's two hours you can't get back and after two hours of James Corden's attempts to be funny, you'll probably end up questioning the point of living.
