Whilst I appreciate the fabulous voice that is Amy Winehouse, why is she being nominated for these awards. Surely our young people need better role models than this. I feel this is showing them that if they do drugs etc they too can win awards. Personally I'd rather see the award go to Ben's Brother who are one of the best groups out there (of course that is my humble opinion!). But the stuff Jamie is writing is outstanding and deserves the appreciation. PS: Who does the voting on these awards is it general minions such as myself??? Many thanks.
