Rob Posted July 20, 2004 Report Share Posted July 20, 2004 This years shortlist is: Basement Jaxx Kish Kash Belle & Sebastian Dear Catastrophe Waitress Franz Ferdinand Franz Ferdinand Jamelia Thank You Keane Hopes And Fears Snow Patrol Final Straw Joss Stone The Soul Sessions The Streets A Grand Dont Come For Free Ty Upwards Amy Winehouse Frank Robert Wyatt Cuckooland The Zutons Who Killed The ZutonsI would put my money on the Zutons. Great album and not the bookmakers favourite (12-1 to win the award). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
delboy Posted July 20, 2004 Report Share Posted July 20, 2004 the mercury music prize reassuringly remains the most pointless exercise on the music business calender. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
