BRITs- oops they did it again

Well, that was all a bit strange. David Bowie- Best Male artist. Maybe but too cool to turn up to accept it.
It feels like not just that the lacklustre ceremony has lost its way but the award itself. With such a profusion of music via the Net, I'm not sure how possible it is to throw a blanket over the entire industry and hope to encompass much of it.
Live performances by the likes of Beyonce or Pharrell Williams don't make it distinctive & holding it in the hanger of the 02 Arena doesn't help either.
The problem is that the industry itself is fragmented into so many niches, I doubt a single award really means much, especially if the stauette itself looks like a frisbee.
My vote for 2013: Best album: Hearts & Knives (Visage). Criminally overlooked.
