You'd like to think this would reignite some kind of tour.....pleeeasseee. The album deserves it

I think best album might go to RAYE's, they should win the other two categories though

Does this mean I have to watch the Brits for the first time in over a decade? I *may* have dipped in a year or two later, but the last time I know for certain I watched was the Outstanding Contribution they got in 2012 (the old duffers award).

These 2024 nominations would feel like more of an achievement sitting here as a fan. Not that awards add up to that much in the grand scheme of things, let's face it.

TBOD is one hell of an album though. They deserve it.

It’s a shame they didn’t win any of them…

How come Damon wasn't there?

I guess blur aren't hip enough to win a brit anymore
