I enjoyed Song 2 (aka the woohoo song as everyone seems to call it)

A very predictable choice of songs though, well the 3 I heard anyway. I always thought Parklife was very overrated

Think they really need to sort it out for next year and get it back to the way it used to be.


What are you talking about, the Brit Awards have always been crap.

Yes, bring back Fox and Fleetwood!

The decision to cut off Adele's acceptance speech for Album of the Year was disgraceful. Hardly anyone watches the poor ITV News anyway so a five minute delay wouldn't have hurt. Blur didn't need all of that time to perform as well. Adele had every right to be annoyed.

Right about the latter. Wrong about the former.

It's not as though Adele doesn't already get enough exposure. You can't go anywhere now without hearing the dreadfully repetitive song 'we could've had it all'. Her unruly, undisciplined behaviour at the Brit Awards was nothing short of disgraceful. Frankly, I think she is a one-hit wonder, and after last night, a glorified hooligan. That's what I think.

Good day.

BBC News' report was on the money. Just before Adele, Blur had given over 3 minutes for their speech then Adele (who was given the biggest award of the night) had 20 seconds, and she probably would have taken an extra 10-15 seconds.

If they were at their best I wouldn't have minded but I spent most of their set just waiting for Phil Daniels to come on. Compared to previous years "Outstanding" winners..Paul Weller, Pet Shop Boys, McCartney etc, I'm sure their sets went on for at least 20 minutes.. certainly when the news was at 10.30.

Blur's set did continue for at least two other songs on ITV2. I'd have thought that they could have pushed another song over to ITV2 if needed to, but I suppose they wanted to end with Phil Daniels & Park Life.

Matt Baker just interrupted Alex Jones at the end of The One Show so they could play out with Song 2.
